Who's your 'right hand man'

During this whole planning process we've seen girls vent about mean people and vendors unwilling to work with you, BM's that are complaining every step of the way, and even family members giving you a hard time over the simplest decision...BUT, who has been there for you every step of the way (besides FH!) ?? Who has really stepped up and gotten into it??

For me its my MOH! She's just as into everything as I am... I can talk to her about weddings 24/7 and go to her over the tiniest little detail and know I am getting her honest opinion on everything. She has come to every apt with me, narrowed down all choices with me and researched things like crazy for me....to my MOH-

Couldn't do it without her!

Re: Who's your 'right hand man'

right on for starting this post.

I would have to say that kimbermiller has been so incredible throughout my whole wedding planning. Even when she was getting married herself she would constantly ask me how the beginning stages were going. And now that we are down to 29 days she is still there to listen to me ramble on. Plus she knit me a beautiful lacey shrug to wear on the day of. I couldn't ask for a better Best Girlie.

My FMiL has not wanted to get in the way but when we need her she is there in a second. And FH is been nothing short of amazing during this planning. It's just the two of us here in philly and it will be so amazing to see the day unfold and know that we took care of it all.

Re: Who's your 'right hand man'

believe it or not, my 'right hand man' is someone completely not in my BP or anything. She's my BF here out in AZ - we only met a few weeks before FH and I got engaged, but she has been a LIFESAVER for me. It's certainly stressful having to do a lot of things over the phone, but she's always here for me and has listened to a fair share of wedding planning crap and never complains, dishes out great advice and is all around an awesome person. i swear, i'd be much worse off and stressed if i didn't have her around! i love my AZBF!

For me it's my FMIL. I feel really lucky to be marrying into a family where the mom seems to like me! She's the one who's recommended vendors, come with me to appointments, took me to my first fitting, etc. My mom can drive me nutso but FMIL is the best!

Re: Who's your 'right hand man'

Re: Who's your 'right hand man'

OMG My FMIL is the shiiiiiiiit! Anytime I have wavered (and trust that its regularly) she has always made sure that if I needed her she was there. And of course my planner-she is a God sent! In so many ways

My best friend/ MOH, my Grandmother and my 2 aunts

Re: Who's your 'right hand man'

Everyone, thank goodness....We did everything ourself because thats the way we wanted it. But everyone has been very happy with everything from the dresses to the coed shower and everything else. I have very nice vendors too.

Re: Who's your 'right hand man'

Most definitely my MOH. I wouldn't be as far along as I am if it wasn't for her. She has helped me with everything and listened just when I needed to vent.
I am lucky to have her as my MOH!!!!

Re: Who's your 'right hand man'

OMG, I finally found my date twin!!! Hello fellow Friday the 13th bride!

(This is directed toward MrsBarton2Be btw - quoting here didn't work for some reason)

As far as the most help - that'd be my mom and one of my BM - the only one out of 5 that are actually local!

Re: Who's your 'right hand man'

Hmm...tough to pick just one person.
My MOH is great and so into everything.
My cousin has been amazing and loves wedding planning. I say she's my VP of BMs.
And then my mother is my go-to person when I want to vent or rant.

Re: Who's your 'right hand man'

my 'right hand man' is absolutely my mom. i had no idea where to even start when i decided to plan the wedding myself - thank god for her! she is the merfect MOB, never pushy, always supportive, and knows when to tell me to 'knock it off' if i am being crazy or impatient about something.
