Being a member of the wedding party is a very important responsibility. You are not only selected to stand up there with the bride but also to make sure they are taken care of before and during the wedding day. Planning the wedding can be stressful, so with these titles, there are several things that you can help out with. Here are some tips to help with those Tulsa Bridesmaids Responsibilities!
The Bachelorette Party
The bachelorette party is one of the more obvious answers on the before wedding. Normally the planning falls upon the Maid/Matron of honor but the bridesmaids can also help with bachelorette party planning. This happens before the wedding and can be one night to one weekend. However, make sure you plan something that the Bride would want to do.
One thing to remember is that financial situations are different for everyone. So, make sure that you do something that all the bridesmaids can come and enjoy with the bride.
Get Involved With The Planning
You are also going to want to help with the planning of the wedding. Go to meetings with the bride to their wedding vendor meetings and take notes. This will allow the bride to focus on the questions they are curious about and not worry about having to write everything down.
You can also help make wedding invitations. Even on the more fun side go wedding dress shopping with the bride. Find out the kind of dress they were picturing and help them find the perfect one. At the same time you can look at potential bridesmaid dresses with the bride-to-be!
Have An Emergency Kit
The day of the wedding you will probably want to be involved in the getting ready process. Make sure that your bestie is able to look and feel her best on her big day. The bride will probably have a timeline for the order of events so make sure that you are there on time.
Help the bride with tasks of things she might need down and help make sure you take as much stress off of her as possible. Also bring an emergency kit (tissues, nail file, hair brush etc.) so there are less things to worry about.
Keep Everyone On Time
After the ceremony, it is time for pictures! The best way to speed this process along is by making sure that everyone is cooperating and listening to the directions of the Tulsa wedding photographer. This might include giving the groomsmen directions. The faster those pictures are done, the faster you all get to eat.
When you do finally arrive to the reception, you might be called on to give a speech. If you are the one giving the speech make sure to prepare ahead of time to make sure that you are ready to go. If you aren’t giving a speech, listen to those that are, and be respectful.
Enjoy Yourself As A Tulsa Bridesmaid
Now it’s time for the party. This is when everyone can finally relax and let loose. The hard part is now over, and you can finally bust a move. If wedding guests see you dance they might be more inclined to join the dancefloor.
Your goal should be to make this the best dance party ever. Also, if you have some fun songs that you know the bride loves make sure to request them with the Tulsa wedding DJ!
