Through my own posts, and posts from others, I have noticed that the majority of you "regulars" think that the only duty of a bridesmaid is to stand there & look pretty.
DISAGREE time 40000!!!!
A bridesmaid is not just a friend who stands in your wedding in a dress. And a maid of honor is not just supposed to hold the bouquet & sign the witness line.
They get gifts for a reason. I've read "bridesmaid duties" on theknot.com, and I've read stuff from several other sources to make sure I'm right.
I send my maids a newsletter/message everytime I make a change or think of an idea. They are 100% involved in helping. They're there to support me, and help me when I need it. Mine are all aware of their bridesmaid duties & have agreed to everything, with no objections.
I'm not a bridezilla. And I don't have unusually high expectations. Anyone else on my side, besides my facebook friends?
