3. Be a writer- Depending on which special title you have been given there may come a time when you are asked to “say a few words.” YES this means a FEW words, even if you are the sister of the bride nobody is interested in hearing about the lifetime of memories you share! Keep it short, simple and sweet; funny, classy and tear will do the trick <3

4. Be a Friend – The reason why you were asked to be a part of this day is because you are already a part of this couples life. Help her by being a good friend, be there when she needs your help but remember that a true friend is an HONEST friend. Give advice without giving orders and stay positive, a positive bridesmaid = a positive Bride!
