-Best Man/Bride's Maid Duties-

 Here are some guidelines to help the Best Man to be. Please remember, these are just some of the standard duties. You may be asked to help in other ways, you may be asked to simply offer moral support...

Arrange for a bachelor party; whether it is a dinner or lunch, a weekend, or a wild night out, you are responsible for arranging the plans as well as the guests.

 Help the groom with the formalwear arrangements. What size does everyone need, where can you pick it all up, etc.

 Keep the bride's ring until the ceremony.

 Ensure the groom's timely arrival at the ceremony.

 Offer to arrange payment for the officiate.

 Offer to arrange payment for the transportation company.

 Offer the first toast to the couple. Make it flattering to the bride, romantic, and witty!

 Offer to help in any other way. Calm anyone who seems stressed.

 Arrange the bride and groom's departure. Make sure it goes smoothly.

 Offer to return the groom's formalwear if necessary.

 Deliver a message to the brides parents from the newlyweds thanking them for the fantastic celebration.

Being asked to be Maid of Honor or one of the Bridesmaids is meant to be an honor. Since you are thought of as one of the bride's closest friends, it is only natural that you would be willing to help. Offer your assistance whenever possible, do not complain that you do not like the dresses, and offer moral support whenever possible! The bride will appreciate your assistance and cooperation!
