One of your next steps is to start choosing who will stand by your side on your big day; your sister, cousin, and besties for life. Becoming a bridesmaid is most definitely an honor, but is also a huge commitment. Make sure your girls know how much you care with a special gift straight from the heart – a bridesmaid proposal!   We’ve all heard the saying “it’s the thought that counts”, and nothing could be more true when it comes to asking the most important people in your life to stand by your side as you take on this new and happy life adventure. Personalization is key in making your bridesmaids feel special and loved, and should definitely be at the forefront when it comes to your bridesmaid proposal style. There are a million and one options out there when it comes to doing just that, and you know your girls best. It can be tempting to personalize in a way that centers around your wedding (hello – polish and jewelry for the wedding!), and this is a great theme to incorporate, but also try to give them a little something that suits their unique personality as well, so your meaningful gift will get plenty of mileage after the “I Do’s” and cake cutting are complete!   Gone are the days of puffy sleeves and dreadful dress colors. You know you will shine on your wedding day, so there’s definitely no excuse for playing down your maids these days. Just like your bridesmaids know and trust that you will make them look polished and pretty for your big day, it is a nice touch to make sure your bridesmaid’s proposal reflects that elegant style. The details make a difference, so spice up your packaging and presentation for an unforgettable surprise that will make them feel like the queens they are!   Who doesn’t love getting snail mail once in a while in this digital age? Hand delivery is certainly wonderful, but a surprise package in the mail is fun and exciting – a generous gift for a gorgeous girl! You’ve packaged everything just the way you want it, and now it’s time to give them a treat. The anticipation of your proposal’s arrival will definitely be worth the wait for the thrill of hearing your best friends’ excited “Yes”! We’ve had the pleasure to work with some of the most thoughtful and creative brides across the world. It’s so special to us to be able to lovingly curate an unforgettable gift for an unforgettable occasion. If you have a special piece in mind, please contact us to make your dreams a reality today or shop with us for some of our carefully designed and curated paperie products, which are sure to leaving a lasting impression on your lucky ladies! 
 Even though we're pretty far north (100 miles from the Canadian border!), we're feeling very akin to our southern neighbors today. Interesting fact: In 2008, the traditions of the Day of the Dead were inscribed in the Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity by UNESCO. Here are a few Day of the Dead sentiments from South of the Border: Quien con la esperanza vive, alegre muere. (He who lives with hope, dies happy.) Hay más tiempo que vida. (There is more time than life.) A mí la muerte me pela los dientes. (Death can't do anything to me.")  Click for Folk Art & Decorations I've been peaking around the corners of the internet to find inspiration for the wholesale product line we're developing. Here are some REALLY AWESOME product packages! |
