Congrats! You’re engaged! Now comes the difficult few months of planning your wedding. There is so much to do, but one way you can help to lighten the load is by choosing bridesmaids! There are so many ways you can incorporate your girls into your special day. Here are three ways you can do this!

 

  1. Bridesmaid Proposals

There are so many fun and creative ways you can ask your girls to be your bridesmaids! Surprising them with their favorite treat, snack, or small gift could be a great addition to the “proposal”. Gift boxes are also a great way to incorporate all of these things. This adds a personal touch to the bridesmaids, and shows them how excited you are to have them in your wedding. 

  1. Bridesmaid Dresses

Traditionally, the bride will pick out one dress that all of the bridesmaids wear. This matches with the theme and colors of the wedding. However, braids as of late have been letting bridesmaids have more creative leeway with their dresses! Brides will choose either a color or theme of dress, and let each bridesmaid pick their own dresses. This adds a little flair to wedding photos, and allows each bridesmaid’s personality to shine through! We love this trend for our 2024 brides.

  1. Bridesmaid Gifts

There is so much creative leeway you can take when it comes to choosing your bridesmaid gifts. Many people usually choose to give their bridesmaids matching clothes. This can include robes, sweatpants, hoodies, t-shirts, or even slippers. You choose colors the match the theme of your wedding, and even personalize the clothes with your bridesmaid’s names. 

 

 

Taking time to prioritize the small details for your wedding will help to elevate your special day! Your bridesmaids also deserve the best, and these small details can help to bring everyone together that is taking part in your wedding.
