Bridesmaid Box: Amazon // Gold Picture Frame: Amazon // Sunglasses: ASRTD [c/o] // Jewelry: Kendra Scott [c/o] // “Will You Be My Bridesmaid?” Card: Etsy // Champagne Bottles: Lamarca
I am back with some fun wedding content this #weddingwednesday:) I spent a lot of time thinking about how I wanted to ask my bridesmaids. It had to be meaningful and a way they could celebrate from afar. My bridesmaids live all over the country so getting everyone together would have been nearly impossible So everything inside the bridesmaid box had to have a special meaning to me!
The most meaningful item in the bridesmaid box was a hand written note to each of them. I absolutely adore these “Will You Be My Bridesmaid” cards from Etsy. I shared something personal and memorable in each one!
For each of my bridesmaids to celebrate from afar, I included a little bottle of champagne! Just so you are aware, if you want to include a bottle of champagne in your bridesmaid box make sure to ship them via UPS. Not USPS because they will not accept shipping alcohol.
Inside each bridesmaid box, I wanted to give something that they could hold and have. A picture frame with a picture of both of us fit that perfectly! I loved how the picture frames had a golden edge. Each one came with a stand and fit a 6X4 picture. You could even do two pictures back to back.
Lastly, I included a few of my favorite things as little gifts! There is nothing brighter than seeing a yellow box:) Each bridesmaid got a piece of jewelry from Kendra Scott that was selected specifically for them. Since my wedding will be in the spring next year, I thought it was very fitting that each girl get a pair of my favorite ASRTD Sunnies!
Finally I packaged everything up in these white boxes and shipped the bridesmaids boxes off! I ordered 7 boxes (6 bridesmaid + 1 maid of honor). While they all came together in a big box, each box was packaged in individual boxes. This was perfect because I filled the white box, placed the them back in their individual box and then shipped them. It meant I didn’t have to go off and find boxes to ship in. Also the white boxes come with stripes of paper to help with packing out the box.
I love this idea! I just got engaged and I can’t wait to start building my bridesmaids gift boxes. I’m still thinking of different ideas.
I’m also needing to ship my bridesmaid boxes and am including a bottle of champagne & personalized glass. Did you use extra bubble wrap or any filler peanuts to help keep your champagne bottles safe?
