What did you/are you doing to have your MOH and BM's involved???
I tend to be a control freak from time to time...how did you all have your MOH and BM' involved besides the obvious shower and bachlorette party stuff???

I have kept my BM's and MOH in the 'loop' the whole time- I let them know whenever i am doing things (whatever it may be) and if they have any input. I let them pick their dresses, got their opinions on the flowers for their bouquets, etc. I think it makes them feel like they are apart of everything, and plus, it has made us closer then ever!

Honestly....I haven't had them do anything except have them try on their BM dresses.... my Mom is helping me out a lot. I think they are planning the shower though!
My MOH is my 17 yr old sister who has 'better things to do!' Her words....

three of the five have done everything with me, one didn't go see my dress on me though.
They have helped me picking my veil and headpiece, and helped me stuff the invites, and one is helping with the wax seals.
I run almost everything by the 3 that are my closest friends (The other two are my SIL in Florida, and my FH's sister).
They will help me wrap and put together the favors, and probably assemble my programs, and do the flower cones.

My in-state BMs came to try on the dresses and pick them out, the out of state ones looked at them online.
My FSIL is a BM and is always looking for things for me and helping out with the details - the material for my veil (my FMIL is making it), my dress, she'll come to my fittings, baskets for the bathrooms at the hall, baskets for the programs, etc.
But the vendors I've done with my FH or my Mom.
My MOH and I exchange ideas and have a lot of the same vendors and have helped each other with ideas for favors, gifts, etc.

So far - They have helped me pick out my dress and tried on and picked out BM dresses.
I gave them little gifts along the way to show my appreciation, a souvenir from our engagement trip, tulips, and a small gift from my recent trip to Texas.
I also made them a little folder with all the important info and pictures of all the girls.
I'm trying not to be too overbearing now...that way I wont feel so bad when I'm flipping out closer to the date.

I have not had them do much either. I can barely get the MOH to try on a dress

I planned everything on my own along with my moh (my sister). My sister gave them specific jobs at the shower but that is about it.

i've only had them try on and order dresses and help me pick mine out. i've told them what i plan on for flowers and cake etc, but honestly if i asked their opinion i know they would just say it's your day, do what you want! and for me that's a good thing. i've had my mom help with a lot, getting in touch with officiant, picking out limos with me, making appts for things etc. that's just easier since my one bm lives in r.i. and my others have kids and their own businesses to run.

I have kept them in the 'loop'. 2 are out of state so I emailed them pictures of the dress so they know what they are going to wear. I have 1 MOH and 8 BM's so I can't have everyone of them involved in something. But the ones that live here all tried on the dress and they helped me pick a dress.

I am just having my two sisters as my MOH's. but one lives in Oklahoma..so my poor sister here is doing everything with me..she comes into Long Island with me for things like an honest opinion on my makeup trial..and how to decorate certain things//shes also helping me make my favors. etc. She volunteered to help me with these things..but its fun for us..Im normally in school..so we are enjoying all of this time to spend together..if they are close enough to you to be in yoru bridal party..chances are they really want to help you!!
