moh & Bridesmaid proposal

Jessica, on March 13, 2018 at 00:33 Posted in DIY 0 30

Hey everyone!

I have two best friends and because one LOVES planning and lives close to me (she lives in Toronto and I live in Port Elgin, so 2.5 hours away) and the other lives in Halifax I decided to make one my (mer)Maid of Honour and the other my Bridesmaid for sure! I plan to have two more bridesmaids but I haven't quite decided yet on who. But these two girls I didn't even have to think about it, I just knew right away! Because I love them so much I wanted to do something special for them. I decided to do a mix of bought and DIY, but personalized all the way. I ordered personalized mirrors from weddingstar which I am completely obsessed with! If you haven't checked it out yet- DO IT! Smiley smile haha they have literally everything you can imagine! Robes, cake toppers, napkins, wine glasses (all customizable!) at reasonable prices! I decided to go the extra mile and get them engraved. Then I ordered two different cards from etsy, and some etsy hairbands, and did a few DIY's. I had so much fun putting these together! My MOH cried, and tomorrow I'll be skyping my bridesmaid as she opens hers....can't wait to see her reaction!

Check out my photos below and let me know what you guys did! DId you do a proposal...or just ask? How did you choose your bridal party? Share some photos!

On the inside I wrote "Obviously I want you to be my (mer)Maid of honour!" Smiley smile moh & Bridesmaid proposal 1

    Yes! Sorry 25 but I asked for two diff colors of vinyl. I messaged and she did it custom for me as she hasn’t done it before. Turned out awesome and all done by hand.

    She’s located out of Hamilton. Also has Facebook page.

    Or really, one gave me ultimatum and I said she could choose not to be in it if it was an issue because not choosing. She hasn’t decided yet. Told her she can step down though

    Hey all!

    I have completed my other two bridesmaid boxes and wanted to share! (sorry for the not so great photos, my camera is terrible lol

    The outside of the box and the personalized photos I put inside! (I printed them using my hp sprocket)moh & Bridesmaid proposal 16Inside of the box had a bridesmaid hair tie with "To have and to hold your hair back" tag, a face mask, nail polish, and sparkly gold toe seperators for pedicures! I wanted to give them stuff to pamper themselves.moh & Bridesmaid proposal 17The cards I made for themmoh & Bridesmaid proposal 18

    The Box says priceless on the outside, and has this lovely message on the inside! So when they take off the card and nametag I made for them they will still have this lovely keepsake. Smiley smilemoh & Bridesmaid proposal 19


    I'm looking forward to giving them to them and seeing their reactions!

    Keep your DIY's coming!

    I dont have the pictures but for my MOH I gave her a wine glass that said "Maid of Honour" on one side and then her name on the other. I gave her the getting ready robe, some candles, LCBO gift card and then some nail polish in a box with a note about why I wanted her to be my MOH. She almost dropped the wine glass when she saw it because she was so excited! For my bridesmaids I did the same thing just minus the wine glass Smiley smile

    I made boxes for my bridal party too. I did my first dIYS for everything except for the knot earrings. But I did make the tag for it. I made new labels for my FH groomsman's whiskey and glasses but I can't post the pic as it has a little profanity on it. Lol. The best part is he did help put it together.

    Yes shipping was fast! If I remember correctly they said it would ship in a week and actually arrived a few days earlier! I believe the warehouse that everything ships from is in Saskatchewan.

    Love the items you chose! I am sure they will love it. I ordered from a person on etsy that I previously dealt with Miss to Mrs Wedding items. I did a makeup bag, wine glass, wine labels, and card, then I put the labels on the homemade wine I got. I can't wait to give them to my girls! I am picking up the order next Friday and will have to post photos then Smiley smile

    Wow! I love all the stuff you get them. It is meaning full.
    I knew who I wanted as my moh and bridesmaid. Like you, I chose the one who lives close To me To be my moh since the other one is 8h away. I proposed my moh already and she cried.😁 I gave Her a notebook that match my wedding planner,, a Will you be my moh scratch-off card and a personalized letter.

    I did something similar. I gave each girl a box. They all got the same thing but different candles. We also did one for the boys as well. You can’t see it very well but each guy for a whiskey glass. Everyone really enjoyed it and we had fun making them.
