Though you may not always agree, you two are besties. You might not agree with some of your friend's decisions for her wedding, but this is her dream wedding. Remember to be there for her and help her with decisions, but let her make them.

You have lots of celebrating to do! Bachelorette party, bridal showers, rehearsal dinners and dress shopping. It's best to plan all of these wedding associated events in advance, this way you're still free to plan your personal life around them. Coordinating schedules with the other bridesmaids is a great first step to start planning out the celebrations and dates.

3. Don't add pressure
Wedding season can get a little crazy with so many appointments. When attending an appointment with the bride, do your best to be on time. If you feel strongly about something speak to the bride-to-be in private, instead of in public. Complaining not only adds stress to the whole bridal party, it doesn't reflect well on you.
4. Be considerate to the bride and groom
Respect the bride and groom's wedding plans and secrets. The fine details they add are to surprise and delight their family and friends. Being on the inside, you're likely to hear about their plans, and probably other information that isn't meant for everyone to hear.

5. Don't Leave things until the last minute.
Offer to help with organization or taking on a task. It's always better to volunteer than to be volun-TOLD. Are you writing a speech, or running errands for the busy bride?
When done in advance, these things will help to ease your mind and relieve stress for the big day.

6. What would you appreciate as a brides?
Follow through with your commitments, choose a designated task to manage and keep organized. Remember she wants you by her side on the big day for a reason; maybe you're the one who keeps the group laughing, it could be emotional support or your amazingly detailed organizational skills. P.S. Don't forget to get the guests dancing at the end of the night!
