Being A Bridesmaid Is Fun

Being A Bridesmaid Is Fun. Have you ever been a bridesmaid, perhaps to your sister's wedding, or a friend's wedding? What were your roles as a bridesmaid? One of the possible roles bridesmaids could have is helping a bride shop for her "wedding dress", as well as her accessories and bridal shoes. If she wants, she can even accompany the bride on wedding preparations, like cake tasting or facility hunting, and also help the bride on important decisions. The "bridesmaid", together with the maid of honor can help in little preparations like putting wedding invitations into their envelopes, organize wedding favors, and of course, most importantly, they provide emotional support to the bride.

Bridesmaids aren't just part of the "wedding" for nothing, or merely for the entourage. They can offer some helpful input, and support the bride in her decisions. They can also offer valuable assistance. Aside from the little things they could do, bridesmaids are also expected to attend the pre-wedding parties, like bridal shower, engagement party, rehearsal dinner, etc. Bridesmaids can even brainstorm with the maid of honor to help plan these parties.

Apart from all the minor tasks and responsibilities of bridesmaids in a wedding, they can also go beyond the call of duty and do special things for the bride. Creativity and thoughtfulness go a long way, and the bride will definitely remember the gesture.

How about the cost of being bridesmaids? Usually, bridesmaids pay for everything they need, like their dress for the parties and for the wedding itself, accessories, shoes, and travel costs. The bride could give them gifts like jewelry or a purse perhaps, but other than that, the bridesmaids pretty much handle the costs.

Remember, the most important part of being a bridesmaid is how well you can support the bride in the whole wedding process. Don't think of it as a tasking "job". Instead, try to look forward to enjoying your role. The secret is being able to take your duties and responsibilities seriously yet still have fun along the way. A wedding is a joyful experience and bask in the joy of the experience and make the most out of it.
