9 ‘NOT BORING’ WAYS TO ASK ‘WILL YOU BE MY BRIDESMAID?’

When asking your best girls – Will You Be MY Bridesmaid? – we think they deserve a little something special, so here are nine great ways to pop the question.

1. On a cupcake, macaroon or any other dessert really. We all know that food is the way to any man girl’s heart, so any sort of sugary treat that asks the question is sure to be a hit.

2. Pop the question – and a bottle while you’re at it – and put a personalised label on a champagne bottle or glass.

3. Personalise a candle so that it asks the question. What girl isn’t a sucker for a beautiful smelling candle?

4. Have a mug personalised so that the question is written on the bottom and fill it with coffee. When they’re done drinking they will see the question!

5. Order bridesmaid robes and then give them to your bridesmaids. No asking needed, they’ll understand what you mean.

6. Secret message scratch cards are a cute and clever way to ask – it’s like a lottery ticket but they win bridesmaid duties not money.

7. Make a survival kit for your bridesmaids to use on the wedding day. Fill it with things like Band-Aids, bobby pins and mini hairspray bottles, and at the very bottom place a card that asks the question. They’ll be confused at first but they will catch on when they find the card.

8. Have a puzzle made! Puzzles are fun, enough said.

9. If you’re not big on DIY or creative projects then just do something you girls enjoy doing. Whether it’s a day at the spa or a delicious lunch, just make a day of it and ask the question using simply words.
