Congratulations, you’re engaged! We’re guessing you’re a busy bee planning your wedding and could do with some support from your maid of honour. So, it’s time to ask your best friend the all-important question: “will you be my bridesmaid?” – but how to ask them in the most meaningful way possible, that will always be a beautiful part of your wedding?
Well, don’t worry, we’ve got you covered here at FIYAH. In this blog, we’ve put together four creative and stylish ways to ask your friends to be by your side on your special day and carry out those important bridesmaid duties.
#1 A Bridesmaid Proposal Box
A personalised keepsake box in their favourite colours is sure to surprise your best friends. This proposal box works wonders if you have bridesmaids of different ages, as you can tailor the items in the box to match. You can fill the box up with pampering gifts and little mementoes of you both throughout the years.
Some little keepsakes include temporary “bride squad” tattoos, candles, bridal party bracelets, mugs, balloons, photographs, alcohol, and flowers. Plus, our other suggestions listed below can be included in the box too!
#2 A Beautiful Keepsake to Seal the Deal
You can purchase beautiful keepsake jewellery for all your bridesmaids, complete with a personalised message from the heart.
The words are your choice, but gifting jewellery creates the perfect everlasting sentiment that your bridesmaids are sure to adore. A minimalist piece that works with the bridesmaid dresses you’ll choose could act as a reminder on your wedding day of the love also shared between two friends.
We recommend our Infinity Collection for the perfect bridesmaid proposal. All pieces are crafted from elegant sterling silver and are completely adjustable. In particular, the Infinity Ring is a truly stunning piece, and it couldn’t be a better reminder of your everlasting friendship as you plan the next chapter in your life.

#3 Ask the Big Question Using Sweet Treats
Is your best friend someone who loves a sweet treat, or do you perhaps love to bake? A sweet and tasty way of asking, “will you be my bridesmaid?” is through delicious cake (I mean, who doesn’t love a personalised cupcake?).
If you’re a keen baker, there are plenty of beautiful bakes you try. However, the key to success lies in the decoration. It may be worth checking our online stores that deliver personalised cake toppers that spell out the big question to make the decorating process a whole lot easier.
If cake isn’t a favourite for your bridesmaid, you can also get handmade chocolates that would have the same effect. With a beautiful box of chocolates, you can create the element of surprise until they pop the lid and find a chocolatey proposal lying before them.
#4 Say It with a Card
Sometimes simplicity is key, and a card says it all. Funny, sweet, emotional – whatever wording you choose, we’re sure your maid of honour is going to love it. Plus, heading down the personalised route may add that finishing touch to your bridesmaid proposal.
Writing and delivering a message from the heart to one of your best friends is incredibly personal and moving and a memory sure to remain with you both for the rest of your life.
