First time BM

Hello all,

So this past Thursday I went out to lunch with my girlfriends and we had a wonderful time. While we were at lunch one of the ladies annouced that she was engaged and she wanted all of us in her wedding. Her MOH was also at the lunch (as the four of us are all really good friends) No date has been set yet but it's likely to be next summer.The bride informed us that we could chose our own dresses which is great because we are all different shapes & sizes.All she told us was that it had to be purple or blue as those are her colors.

I am not exactly sure how involved she wants us to be. I know her MOH is going to be very involved with the planning.The bride doesn't expect a whole lot of help from her fiancee.

Looking forward to chatting with everyone as I get ready to see my friend through the next 10 months and beyond.

    Looks like you've got a pretty relaxed bride, which is aways nice.  Though sad to hear that she doesn't expect much help from her FI - he should be her primary helper/support through the planning.

    Feel free to offer your support however you can / want to, but don't be too disappointed if she doesn't take you up on every offer.  Some brides want all their BMs to come to invitation stuffing parties and bridal shows and others enjoy doing it alone / with their FI.  If you're looking for a way to be more involved you could talk to the other girls about a bridal shower or bach party (but don't feel obligated if it would be a strain financially or time-wise).  Your only job as a BM is to get the dress and show up.  Everything else is gravy.

    Have fun!

    I would offer up some help if you want to but the only thing you have to do is be there with a dress that fits the color requirements and looks great on you. Though the MOH might contact you for help planning the parties.
