Chiky asked: I am the maid of honor and I completly understand my role to support the bride in prep for her special day. Not to mention, I am so excited for my best friend, the bride-to-be. But, it seems like she’s trying to make things more difficult for herself, her bridesmaids, mother, groom, and others by making descisions that are not necessarily in her best interest. For example, asking for input about bridesmaids dresses, but ignoring it so that the dresses are unflattering to the girls and don’t necessarily compliment the the bride. I thought of getting her a bride’s etiquette book as a gift to help her handle situations, as she is already confused about how wedding planning works but I don’t know if she’ll find it helpful or insulting(she could go either way) and I don’t know if she’ll get the hint.I want to do my job to help choose and plan. Should I talk to her before things get really bad? I feel like if I don’t, things will get worse. Help!!!
It’s not that I just don’t agree with her descisions, it’s just that I want her wedding to be her perfect day. I don’t want her to look back on the wedding day and have her say “why didn’t you tell me?” when something isn’t perfect or quite how she pictured it.
I’m trying to stand behind her and be her support, but not at the expense of helping her best day being perfect or our friendship.
