Creative Wedding Party Proposal Ideas
If you’re planning a wedding, there’s a good chance that you or your partner “popped the question.” These days, however, “will you marry me?” isn’t the only proposal. A lot of couples plan wedding party proposals, where they formally ask their friends and family members to serve as members of the wedding party. If you like this idea, consider these fun proposal ideas.
A Group Invite
Some couples pop that special question individually to each prospective member of their wedding party. And, while you could do that, you may find it easier to do a big “group ask.” If so, there are many ways to go about a group proposal. You could gather everyone for a party and then surprise them with the invite. Some couples like to play a special video with the question included, while others hand out small cards or gifts with the question inside.
Say It With Song
If you’re the creative or musical type, consider coming up with a little “will you be in the wedding party?” song. It’s a fun way to ask this meaningful question, and you can deliver it how you want. You could sing it personally to each person or record yourself singing and send out the videos. Some people post the song to YouTube or burn it on a CD and then surprise their loved ones.
Send a Bouquet
For those who love flowers, why not send a bouquet or even a single flower to each person you want in the wedding party? You can include a card that asks them to be a part of your big day. Even better, your flowers can represent your upcoming wedding. If you’re getting married in Maui, for example, you could send Hawaiian flowers, or you could choose flowers in your wedding colors.
When asking people to be in your wedding party, the sky's the limit. You can keep things simple and sweet or go all out. Just make sure you ask in a way that won’t break your wedding budget before you even get started. Hopefully, no matter how you ask, you’ll get a lot of “yes” answers from the people who mean the most to you.
