BM Question

Lately, I feel as though I have been asking everyone in the world for their opinions, but they never give them!

How involved are your Bridesmaids? Do you ask for their opinions? Who helps you make your decisions?

Re: BM Question

I only have MOH, my cousin. She has not been super involved yet, but I haven't needed anything- she has helped ALOT support wise, and with ideas and etc. I expect a ton of help from her in the future and I know she is more than ready and willing!!

Thank goodness

Also one of fh's sisters is GREAT she is helping alot as well

Re: BM Question

My FSIL (14 years old) has helped me every step of the way with planning - my FH's cousin and my good friend (we were in her BP two years ago) has also helped a great deal - my twin sister/MOH hasn't done anything - not even look through my magazines of bridesmaid dresses. I have three junior bridesmaids and a flower girl I havent even seen since before my engagement. Things will pick up though because i come home from college in a week and at the end of may or early june we are all going bridesmaid dress/flower girl dress shopping and I'm going to throw a party for just the BP for everyone to get to know each other!

My FSIL FMIL FH mom and friend help me make my decisions and I ask their opinions on anything wedding related - mostly FH and FSIL though!

Re: BM Question

hmmm what should they be helping with? I know that my fiance and I make our wedding decisions together. My BMs ask about vendors we've visited and we chat about stuff like that, but so far I haven't needed help with anything... They're my best friends though so I know they would be there for me with anything I needed, wedding related or not. :)

Re: BM Question

My MOH (my sis) lives in PA so it's hard for her to actually do much. Out of rest of my three BMs, one is extremely proactive and helpful, one is helpful by giving opinions, and the other is... sort of out of the loop. My 3 BMs all came with me to go dress shopping so that was nice. I feel like I'll ask them to help more when it gets closer to the wedding date and we have more little things to take care of (favors, etc).

Re: BM Question

I have bounced many ideas off of my MOH...Infact, she was the one that helped me decide on the dresses for the BM's.....I have also bounced many ideas off of my FSIL (BM) bc she was married only 2 years ago...I can not complain at all about my BP!

Re: BM Question

My wedding party has not been super involved, but my too friends that are helping me design/plan have been awesome! I keep telling them they are TOO IMPORTANT to my wedding to be in the bridal party, or else I would swap them in an instant! I just need them to be my 'coordinatiors' too much. (I do plan on announcing them at my E-party though, and plan on getting them both gifts)

Re: BM Question

Since it's so early I haven't even asked all of them yet. I know, I know; gotta do that! My MOH and the one BM I did ask aren't majorly involved bc I haven't needed them to be yet. So far it's pretty much been my mom helping me out!
