Wedding Planning Tips

My sister is getting married and my other sister and I are the maids of honor. Since this is the first wedding I am standing up in, I’m super excited I’m the maid of honor and was hoping for something special that would show it like maybe the maids of honor wear a sash or something and the other bridesmaids don’t. We are all wearing the same dresses which would look bad with a sash so that’s out. any other ideas?

My best friend just got engaged and asked me to be her MOH. I want to put a basket together to kick of my MOH duties, but I’m not sure what all to put in it. I need some help!
I was thinking about a picture frame with a pic of her and her fiance when he proposed, some bridal magazines, a wedding planner, and maybe a Chamilia bracelet with engagement/wedding themed charms.
Any other ideas? She is the best friend in the world, and I just want to make this the best experience possible for her, from start to finish

Of course, I will have to choose my own choice in the end, but I would like some public help and opinion on this.
I have 3 women (2 of my best friends and my boyfriend’s sister) to choose the best to be a maid of honor for our future wedding. They each have their pros and cons which makes the decision hard to make.
My best friend of 10 years is the one I want to be my MOH. Problem is, she’s 2 hours away, no car, and she was a special ed student with learning and spelling difficulties. (I am by no means discriminating her!! I have always accepted her difficulties). So I believe that despite being my longest friend, she would have issues with transportation and planning.
Then there’s my other best friend whom has been so for 6 years. Her only issue is that she is very busy and overstresses herself. She is on calming medication and her doctor told her if she doesn’t slow down and take a break, she’ll die young. I wouldn’t want to put pressure of a wedding on her already sagging shoulders (figuratively speaking).
Then there’s my boyfriend’s sister, who I’m not the closest with and have known visits-only for the past year. I know she could handle the planning, but I barely know her and her opinions and beliefs differ from mine.
When the bridesmaids and MOH visit, due to my first friend’s lack of car, they may have to meet halfway, and I don’t want to compromise their living and transportation requirements with my wedding.

I was just the maid of honor in my best friends wedding and I feel like the bride and groom’s parents did so much to help out the bride and groom but also did a ton to help me out. So I feel like I should just send them a small little thank you card.

So I thought when you asked someone to be your Maid of Honor or a Bridesmaid you were basically telling them that they are very important to you and trust them enough to help you with your big day. Well, that’s not really happening for me. My Maid of Honor has done nothing but get her dress (which she kinda complained about having to pay for $99 for!). She has nothing planned for me (I said I didn’t want a bridal shower because we already have a house so we don’t really need anything. I would like to have some kind of event prior to the wedding so we can all get together, like a tea or bachelorette party. It looks like I may have to host this, which I feel is ridiculous.
My Bridesmaids have been no help. They all complained about the dress, which I let them pick! I finally just picked one I thought looked good on everyone.
My future Mother in Law is complaining about me behind my back. She is saying I am not including her in anything. She hasn’t offered anything but her negative opinion. She wants some silly favors made for the reception- which I don’t mind- but shouldn’t she go buy them? Why would I buy them if that’s what she wants? I only had my MOH and my future sister in law come with me to pick out my dress. I didn’t want a lot of opinions that would only stress me out – this caused an uproar.
So as a bride – how do I ask for what I need help with? I work 50 hours a week and could really use help. I am doing my best by not being a bridezilla but I am really depressed b/c nobody seems to wants to help me. I almost wish I didn’t have anyone in my party at all then ppl that will only drag me down. I understand that the world doesn’t revolve around me and not everyone has a bunch of money to spend on this wedding. I just wish someone cared. We have 2 months until the wedding,

I am getting married this september coming and my best friend is my maid of honour.
She is a control freak, she is trying to take over my wedding.
Like yesterday morning i asked her if she could go to my wedding venue to pick up my room plan for the evening reception from my wedding planner, she agreed and went to the wedding venue.
Yesterday evening my wedding planner came round to my house and we were going through the room plan and it was completely different then i designed it, i asked her why did she change it and my wedding planner said your maid of honour told me that you hated this room plan and me and her designed it again, i was so angry and upset.
Should i fire her as maid of honour? i called her this morning and asked her why she did it and she said well lets just face it your room plan was unorganized and it looked too jumbled up and tacky.
Also she is refusing to wear the maid of honour dress i wanted her too wear, the dress is baby blue with a cream sash on it and she hates it, she is just being pathetic and cannot be bothered with her babyish ways.

I am 18 years old and I am flying out for my step sister’s wedding. We are not like super close but we are friendly ans she made me a brides maid, and I have always admired her. What do I wear for a rehearsal dinner? Actually I really don’t know what to wear for any of it…..

My maid of honor is my sister. We haven’t been as close these past few years, but I still wanted her to be my MOH. Well…she hasn’t done the first thing for me. I don’t expect to be catered to, but I at least expected her to throw my wedding shower. I am currently planning my own bachelorette party and I’m a little bummed that I didn’t have a friend that wanted to do that for me. I don’t want to boot her from my wedding, but I do want to let her know that she hasn’t shown me any support.

I know it’s tradition for the Maid of Honor to gift the bride a person gift which is usually sentimental. My bride/ best friend loves sweet meaningful gifts. I want to give her something she will love and cherish long after her wedding. Can anyone give me some ideas for gifts. Maybe somethings you’ve given to the brides.

nice place to have our bachlorette party. However I am not 21 and everyone else is. Are there any good ideas or places to go and still have a good time? or am I going to have to sit out? We were planning on drinking in the room and playing games first then going out.
