What lovely things have your BP members done?

One of my BP girls really stepped up & was there for us so much so that we actually wish we could adopt her!!! I'd send an email and have a reply within minutes, she always, ALWAYS gave an honest opinion....not what you wanted to hear, HONESTY...

The day of the wedding - when my hair was being done and she'd ask how i like it - i wouldn't even look in a mirror - i'd ask Katie...my MOH would come over and say - i love it....but Katie would come over & would be like, it's a little high, can we make it less foofy? I just flat out ADORE her honesty!!!!

She has become so much closer to us and Dave loves her too!!!

Woohooo! I love this thread!

My MOH, who is 7 months pregnant, has been organizing her butt off for me by planning my shower and bachelorette party. I hear from everyone that she has been so wonderful with getting people together and trying to make both special. She is also constantly checking in with her doctor to make sure she'll be able to give birth prior to the wedding. (she should be fine by the way....she is due 12 days prior with her first baby, which normally could go late, but since the baby is already approaching healthy birth weight with so much time left to go, barring any complications the doctor agreed to induce if she doesn't deliver by the due date) By the way, none of the stuff with the dr. is by my request, I keep telling her not to worry, but she really is super concerned about being there for me on my big day.

I haven't asked much of them...yet!!!

But when I went dress shopping they were really honest and when I walked out wearing THE dress........they both teared up and I knew that was the one. They both have been there for me when I needed advise or opinions. They might be polar opposites but I love them both!

Aww how sweet of your preggo MOH!!!! Wish they could all be like that, hehe.

My best friend has been my STAR BM...more than I ever expected/hoped for. She's made herself so available for BM dress shopping with great ideas and always giving an honest opinion, she's forever cheering me up and keeping me motivated and has the best ideas! She even has been emailing the rest of the BP to get moving and order their dresses which so far she is the only one to order. Did I mention I LOVE THIS GIRL?????

My MOH has been a huge help with planning the bridal shower! (not that I know anything about it!) Mom is OOT so that is big!

BMs have come shopping for gowns with me, they are all pretty flexible and I appreciate that so much bc I've heard horror stories!

My fabulous Matron Of Honor organized a beautiful shower for me with my mom and aunt. They did a wonderful job. She was just married in June and she reminds me that it's just one day and she keeps me in perspective sometimes! I love that. Oh..and she's brutally honest!!
