Bridesmaids Etiquette

There’s a lot more to being a bridesmaid than wearing a beautiful dress and standing behind the bride. Bridesmaids are expected to be there for every step of the wedding events. Being a bridesmaid can end up being a lot of work, not to mention expense. We have prepared for you the top tips for being a fantastic bridesmaid.

Help plan the bridal shower.
Planning the entire bridal shower is one of the maids of honor’s duties, but you should be ready to help and be an active participant.

Attend all the pre-wedding events.
Attending all bridal events is a must for a bridesmaid, except, of course, if you live in another city or have another family obligation. Don’t use the justification that you are too busy to participate. Everyone has overloaded schedules, and you will end up upsetting the bride by using this poor excuse.

Be ready and on alert on the day of the wedding.
A bridesmaid should always be ready to help, in any circumstance, on the day of the wedding. You are there to support the bride, and you have been chosen for a particular role.

Never complain to the bride.
It may sound obvious, but if you usually tell your every thought to the bride, you may forget that this is her big day, and she doesn’t want to hear your considerations. Not about the dress, not about the flowers, and not about the table setting, no matter what.
