I can''t wait for this month to be over! It''s the busiest time of the year at work and I''m soooo exhausted every day. Whenever I do have a free moment I''m doing wedding-related stuff or.....buying a condo! Yes, we just signed a contract and we''re in attorney review right now! I promise I''ll come back and update more as soon as things slow down a bit but I had a question I wanted to throw out to all the lovely ladies on PS:
I''m one of the first in my group of friends to be married, and so none of my bridesmaids have ever been bridesmaids before. While they''re excited to be a part of my wedding party, I can''t help but be a little worried, because they''re so clueless about being bridesmaids! They all think that the only thing that is required of them is to attend the rehearsal dinner to find out what they have to do on the wedding day, and show up on the day of the wedding wearing a nice dress. One looked positively appalled when I mentioned that I may need their help while going to the bathroom on my wedding day, and another thought that she can show up on the day of the wedding at the same time as the rest of the guests!
Now this isn''t to say that they''re not good friends; they''re just all so clueless regarding all the behind-the-scenes stuff that bridesmaids do. How can I teach them the traditional roles of bridesmaids without seeming bridezilla-ish?
...or am I being bridezilla-ish by even thinking this?
