6 Smashing Ways to Ask Someone to Be Your Bridesmaid
It is truly an honor to be asked to be a wedding attendant, and not just because it comes with a seat at the head table. Your bridesmaids will literally be standing by your side as you exchange your vows and transition from single lady to married woman, and requesting that someone stand up for you at your wedding has taken on an air of formality in recent years.
While it is certainly okay to “propose” to your would-be attendants simply by asking, there are a bevy of fun, creative, and meaningful ways you can pop the question. Take a look at the simple and elegant options here, and see if one works with your personal style.

4. Gift Her With Jewelry
A necklace or pair of earrings is easy to attach to card that begs the big question, and can even be purchased attached as a set. A personal touch is especially appreciated for a gift such as this, so look for jewelry that reflects her name, initial, or favorite gemstone. Photo courtesy of Not on the High Street
