Asking your closest friends or family members to be your bridesmaids is a special moment, and these days what makes the moment even more memorable is an amazing proposal box. I know that I couldn’t wait to share my bridesmaid boxes with my friends when I was planning my wedding. Check out what I did for my bridesmaids here! From personalized gifts to sweet treats, here are 10 creative ideas for what to put in a bridesmaids proposal box.

1. Personalized items.

Show your appreciation for your friends by adding a personal touch to your bridesmaid’s proposal box. Nothing says that you love and value your friendship more than taking the time to personalize. One way you can do this is by adding a monogrammed or their name written on items such as robes, customized jewelry, or a personalized wine glass. These items make great keepsakes but also show your bridesmaids that you put thought and effort into their proposal box gifts. Here are some other ideas:

2. Sweet Treats.

Does anyone here have a sweet tooth? I know that I do! Think about including something sweet in your proposal box such as some of your bridesmaids’ favourite candies or chocolates. What is so cool is that you can even add a personalized touch by creating custom labels or packaging. If you don’t want to add “Will you be my bridesmaid? onto the box itself, you can add it to the label of the candy or chocolate instead to make it even more special.

3. Mini bottles of Champagne or Wine.


Pop some bubbly! Include mini bottles of champagne or wine in your bridesmaid’s proposal box for a fun touch to get the celebration started. You can also add personalized labels with each bridesmaid’s name or a cute message too. If your bridesmaid does not drink alcohol then you can always choose another drink that you know your bridesmaid will like. Cheers to your special day!

4. Jewelry.

I love the idea of including a small piece of jewelry in your bridesmaid’s proposal box. It is a classic and timeless gesture. There are two ways you can do this, one is to consider gifting a piece of jewelry that your bridesmaids can wear on your wedding day, such as a pair of earrings or a bracelet. Another way is getting personalized jewelry with their initials or birthstone for something they can wear any day. It is the perfect gift to make them feel appreciated. Here are a few ideas:

5. Party Starters.

Let’s get the party started with some favours that will help get the whole celebrating vibe started. The first thing that comes to mind is confetti poppers! As messy as it can get, it really gets the party started in a way that just feels so right. Also, if you want to add some sparkle to your drinks, consider getting Edible Glitter Dust.

6. Sleepwear.

Another gift that I love and personally got for my bridesmaid is sleepwear.

One tip, if you are hoping your bridesmaids will wear this after your wedding, it is best to go with their initials or name over the typical bridesmaid title. Here are some ideas to add:

7. Drinkware or Glassware.

If you are looking for a gift that never goes out of style then drinkware is what you need to think about. Whether you go the glassware route or want more fun drinkware, these are things that can be used after the wedding and makes the ultimate keepsake. Here are some ideas:

    All these gifts are a great suggestion. However, when it comes to personalized gifts, I think adding a creative touch like using your wedding hashtags and wedding logos to the gifts that you give will make the gift more special.
