So your fiance has finally popped the question and your big day is in sight, but you now have a million and one things to do? Worry not - the team here at Dylan Oaks are busy working on a wedding blog series to help you out with the planning of your dream wedding!
.
.
The first installment is going to discuss all things bridesmaid proposal boxes. What are they? What should be included in them? How can you make them special and tailor them to suit each person on your #bridesquad!
.
Bridesmaid proposal boxes are a fantastic way to ask those amazing people in your life to play an important part on your special day. They are becoming super popular so it is time to jump on the bandwagon. All you have to do is fill a box with meaningful gifts, preferably on theme with your wedding colours, and include a special message asking the question.

.What To Put Into A Bridesmaid Box?
A note/card- use this to explain why the gift is landing on their doorstep. Some brides go all out with their notes including shared memories or pictures, while others like to keep it short and sweet. It is entirely up to you on how you would like to approach this. It is also a fantastic opportunity to inform your bride squad of key dates such as when the hen do is and which weekends you are planning to go dress shopping.
.
Personalised jewellery is essential to any gift, especially in a bridesmaid proposal. Think of it as a grown up,sophisticated friendship bracelet that connects everyone in your bridal party and marks those special moments created leading up to your wedding day.
.
Our gorgeous bar and bead necklaces can be engraved with names, dates, initials and words for the ultimate personalisation experience. The timeless, dainty design will have everyone reaching for this piece over and over again, reminding them of your special day and the magical memories that were created. Each necklace is available in gold, rose gold and silver, perfect for any colour scheme that you have in mind for your wedding.
.
Something Sparkling
All celebrations call for a bottle of bubbly, so why not include a mini bottle of champagne, prosecco or sparkling wine. This may not be suitable for those who choose not to drink alcohol, flower girls or junior bridesmaids so be sure to pop an appropriate non-alcoholic beverage into their boxes. You can go a step further and create your own labels that match your wedding theme, making the experience even more instagrammable!
.
A Sweet Treat
What are your bridesmaids favourite snacks? Ask them on the sly, or perhaps you already know! Be sure to add little packets of these to sweeten the deal. After all, you can’t say no with a mouth full of chocolate. Once again, try to add snacks that fit in your colour scheme to keep in line with the wedding theme.
.
Matching PJ Sets
.
There will be a LOT of beauty sleep required leading up to the big day, so including a luxurious set of pj’s is a must. You can get them customised and colour coordinated for all those cute #bridesquad photoshoots.
