Brought to you by our friends at Dogeared.
Vanessa here, Love Stories TV Head of Growth and resident bride-to-be. The first thing I did when I got engaged was spend several weeks staring at/taking selfies of my ring, celebrating with friends, and day dreaming about spending the rest of my life with my fiancé. Eventually, when I realized I had better get planning I knew what I wanted to do first: ask my BFFs, "Will you be my bridesmaid?"
Not only do I need them to stand with me on the big day, but I want their help and feedback along the way. When I planned my bridesmaids' proposals, I knew I wanted the way I asked to be a reflection of how important their friendship is to me, and how I could never imagine this milestone without them. So, I put A LOT OF TIME AND RESEARCH into it. I'm really happy with the way my proposals turned out but afterward I realized that there's got to be an easier way.
Enter Dogeared. I really wish I had known about Dogeared Jewelry—because they truly figured out this bridesmaid proposal gifting thing and I'm making it my mission to make sure every bride-to-be out there knows that this is THE option.
Not only is Dogeared Jewelry one of my go-to's for achieving that "cool-girl" layered look but they have put together some perfect gift sets for proposing to your bridesmaids. With their new bridesmaid proposal boxes, you really can't go wrong. You get a beautiful box, a personalized card, a chic necklace that can be worn every day or on \"THE\" day, and other lifestyle items like zippered makeup pouches.
I love these gifts because they work for any proposal scenario. Are your bridesmaids local? Great! Host a night girls' out (or in!) and surprise them with a group proposal. Do you have besties all over the country? No problem! These are compact enough to mail, and who doesn't like to receive a box of gorgeous accessories they can actually wear? The possibilities are truly endless with Dogeared, and your bridesmaids will thank you.
