Asking someone to be your chief bridesmaid – different ways to pop the question…

Proposing to your chief bridesmaid has become a sort of micro-trend over the past few years. It’s a real honour being asked to be your bestie’s bridesmaid and if you’re thinking of asking, why not do it with some flair? You can find loads of cute gift bundles and cards online that will help you ‘pop’ the question. 

Here are some ideas to get you started! 

There are loads of super cute bridesmaid proposal cards available. Depending on you and your bestie, you can choose the mood and pick something that really says something about your friendship. 

If you’re not into soppy sentiments, then humour is always a good option. Who could say no to a card that makes them giggle? From ‘someone has to buy the inflatable penis’ and ‘I promise not to make you wear an ugly dress’, these simple yet effective designs are sure to put a smile on your best friend’s face. 

If you want something a little more sophisticated, chose a card that has some gorgeous floral illustrations. These ones can be personalised with your chief bridesmaid’s name and will have big, bold flowers framing your sentiment. 

If you’re feeling eco-conscious and want to save some money, you can download a digital PDF card. This can be sent to your chief bridesmaid via email, to her phone or laptop. These are ideal for last minute proposals and as a way to save the trees. 

If you want to up the ante, then why not create goody box or bag that shows your chief bridesmaid how much she means to you? You could create your own, using an old box and filling it with shredded tissue paper. You could then include small gifts such as candles, face masks, hair accessories and bubble bath. Think about items that are going to pamper her – she’ll need them after helping organise the hen do! 

Alternatively, if you don’t have time to make your own, these cute goody boxes are sure to be a hit!

Who doesn’t like some cute jewellery? Whether it’s personalised with her name, has her birth stone or is just a delicate piece of silver that she can wear on her wrist, chief bridesmaid proposal jewellery is bound to be a winner. In the spring and summer months, a piece of pressed flower jewellery is sweet and sophisticated option.  

If there’s one way to a girl’s heart, then it’s through alcohol. A simple bottle of her favourite red or a bottle of bubbly always goes down a treat. She won’t say no!
