What are your expectations?

What do you expect your MOH and your bridesmaids to contribute/do for your wedding?

Re: What are your expectations?

My MOH is currently preggers with baby #4, so I'm not expecting her to do too much honestly! I know she has a lot on her plate, so I'll be happy if she's on time for everything. I told my BMs what I want to do for my bachelorette party, and I'm pretty sure that my mom will be doing my shower. I really just want them to show up, have some drinks with me, and keep me calm lol.

In my bridesmaids boxes, I had a piece of paper that explained to my BMs what I wanted - and part of it was this:

your job:

look & feel beautiful

hold something pretty

make sure that kevin is, in fact, at the other end of the aisle before I start walking

and know that this day couldn’t be complete without you


I don't need them to do much more than be there for moral support, and to give my hair & makeup people their complete and honest opinions to make sure I look awesome. Also, a fun bachelorette party wouldn't hurt, but that's something we've already started joking around about.

I do recognize that I'm fairly low-key, (i.e. they won't have matching dresses, shoes or accessories) but my goal is to have them be low-stress so we can enjoy the whole process together as it comes along.

My only expectation of my bridesmaids is to be my little factory workers making candied apple favors.

I agree with all of the above + plan a kick A$$ bachelorette party!! I think if you're a big DIYer, then I think MOH should be around to help with more (if she can) - just my opinion

one of my girls offered to help with all my DIYs but I'm too much of a control freak to let anyone help haha

I agree with everyone, I just want them there for support and to have font together. And the DIY stuff I think if they are also crafty they should help with that sort of stuff too. My sister is my MOH though and she lives 4 feet from my room so I'm constantly knocking on her door showing her pictures of things WE are going to make together haha.

I have a cross country BP - 2 BMs in NY, 1 BM in AZ, my MOH (older sister) is in AZ and currently pregnant, and my other MOH (little sister) is in FL and underage.

I don't expect anything from them, as of yet. I feel bad that my 2 BMs in NY are going to do way more than the other girls.

I'm not going to have a DOC, so I will probably ask everyone to check on things on the actual wedding day.

Forgot about this! I'm going to need our BMs/GMs/families to pick up all the stuff we had set up for the day-of since so much will have been made and bought by us for the wedding
