How I Asked My Bridesmaids

My wedding is in eight months, which is so crazy to think about! We’ve tackled a lot of the planning process and just have a few big things left to do in the next month or so. One of the more fun parts of planning was asking my bridesmaids to be in my wedding! I wanted to put together some of my favorite things to share with my gals, so I made these little gift boxes.

The star of the box was a ‘Will you be my bridesmaid?’ cookie made by One Smart Cookie, a local cookie maker. Ashley came up with this design so that my bridesmaids could answer ‘yes’ or ‘no’ – although I’m not sure if I should have given anyone the chance to say no 😉 Luckily everyone said yes! You can order custom cookies from One Smart Cookie on Facebook or Instagram.

I also added these pave knot studs as a nod to “tying the knot”. They are from Stella & Dot, which has great quality jewelry at an affordable price. My mom is a Stella & Dot stylist – if you’re interested in hosting a party to get free jewelry hit her up! For a little self care, I included a face mask. I bought this 12 pack on Amazon. And it wouldn’t be me without some rosé! I got these cute cans of sparkling rosé from Total Wine.

To assemble the boxes I ordered these cardboard boxes and this crinkle fill. It was honestly so easy to put together. For the ones being mailed out of town I stuffed the boxes with bubble wrap so the items wouldn’t move around.

I’m so lucky to have my friends and family stand by me on my wedding day! I’ll share some more of our wedding planning process soon. If there’s anything in particular you’re curious about, let me know in the comments below!

Biscuits & blessings,
