in Wedding Party
The bride has asked everyone in the bridal party to write something about her for her wedding website.  I've never heard of this.  I thought the bride and groom normally write about themselves and their love story.  I'm at a loss as to what I should write - do I write an introduction?  do I tell a funny story?  do I write about what she means to me?  The bride is my sister and I am MOH so I can't mess this up...HELP!!!

    I have never heard of that either! I would keep it short and sweet. If it were my sister, I might write "(Bride) is not only my sister, but my best friend. I am thrilled for her and (her FI's name) and looking forward to sharing their special day." You could personalize a little from there. I wouldn't spend too much time on it- if she's not happy, tell her to write her own wedding website ;)

    Ummm... bridal party members are ONLY required to buy the attire (assuming it's within the budget discussed), show up on time and sober at the ceremony and smile for pictures.

    So to answer your question: yes, the bride and groom should be making their own wedding website.

    Only write something for them if you want to (also only offer  to host a shower and/or bach party, help with favors, and/or help with planning if you want to). They really shouldn't be asking anything that you don't offer.

    But if you want to write something (it would be nice of you) then do whatever comes most naturally. Do you tend to be better at writing/telling funny stories? Or are you better at sentimental?
    You've probably known her the longest. If you like funny, you probably definitely have some funny stories (did you guys play pretend weddings growing up / have celebrity dream husbands?).
    If you like sentimental you can talk about what she means to you and write your well wishes.

    If you write what you know, the way you're most comfortable writing, your writeup will definitely be the best. Sorry that's kind of vague, but it's the best advice I've got not knowing your sister.

    Just keep it short and sweet. 

    It's lame of them to ask you to do it anyway. 
    What did you think would happen if you walked up to a group of internet strangers and told them to get shoehorned by their lady doc?~StageManager14

    Thanks for the advice ladies!  I am keeping it short and sweet.  My sister showed me her wedding website and it actually says in the "About the Bride & Groom" section - "written by the bridal party" - so that is why she asked us to write a little blurb.  Maybe this is a new trend for destination wedding sites...who knows!
