If you haven’t heard the news just yet, I am ENGAGED! Adam popped the question last December and I am finally getting into some serious wedding planning. One of the first things on my list was putting together DIY bridesmaid proposal boxes to ask my ladies if they will stand next to me on my big day.
I decided to film my full process of putting these together, including the thought behind each item, and the details of where I found everything to make them personalized and special. It was important for me to make these boxes myself to include a personal touch for each of my friends. Of course, many companies provide pre-made boxes for bridesmaid proposals but as a DIY-centric person, I was happy to take on the creative challenge.
Check out the video below to see how they turned out!
