Ideas For Quinceanera Court Proposals

Choosing your damas and chambelañes can be a little stressful. Once you’ve made your choices, it’s time for a little fun: court proposals! We’ve seen a rise in “proposals” for big events lately. Many brides are choosing to send a sweet gift to ask their bridesmaids to be part of the wedding, and many teenagers are asking their date to prom via “prom-posal!” While you absolutely don’t have to do anything extravagant, it is a nice gesture to do something a little special when you ask your court to be part of your day. Here are a few ideas we’ve compiled:

Pizza Party - Who doesn’t love pizza?? This is a fairly cheap and fun way to ask everyone at once to be part of your court. Invite all your future damas and chambelañes over for a fun evening. You can order pizzas in advance and rearrange the toppings on top to spell out your question! If you have a great relationship with your local pizza place, maybe they will even spell out the question for you.

Locker Decor - Decorate your friends lockers for a very public court-posal! You can go crazy with this and still keep it pretty cheap. Think balloons, streamers, tinsel, and the important question! If you have access, you could put a little treat inside their locker as well.

Instagram Them - Ask your friends to be on your court by using this little invite. You can create a story on your Instagram of each one of your friends when you ask them! Alternatively, you could invite them to a group story on Snapchat to share their excitement.

Balloon Surprise - Ask your friends to be part of your big day by using a helium balloon! To do this, you need to write your question on a very small piece of paper. Roll it up and put it in the balloon before filling it with helium. On the balloon, you’ll want to place a little tag that says something like, “Pop Me!” Then, place the balloon in a small box. You might want to make sure the ribbon from the balloon is taped to the the box to make sure it doesn’t fly away when they open the box.

A Heart Felt DIY Card - Ask your friends to be on your court by using this little invite. You can create a story on your Instagram of each one of your friends when you ask them! Alternatively, you could invite them to a group story on Snapchat to share their excitement.
This courtposal is so much fun to do! You can easily customize this box by adding each of your potential court members' likes, including favorite colors, candies, and other small gifts!

While there are a lot of different ideas floating around out there, remember that the point of this is to be fun! If it stresses you out to try to plan something like this, then just keep it simple. Your friends will be thrilled to support you and be part of your big party no matter what!
