Picking Bridesmaids

This is probably one of the toughest decisions for a lot of brides. You don't want to hurt anyone's feelings, but if you have 10 close friends, that would make for a pretty expensive wedding party! here are some of the costs that you need to think about: if your bridesmaids don't live in the same town as you, you may want to pay for their lodging and travel expenses; you have to get flowers for each of them; it is customary to buy the bridesmaids a Thank You gift; you may want to pay to get their hair done (unless you trust them to their own. That could turn out to be very scary in some cases); you may want to get their nails done.

Also, keep in mind that your bridesmaids will most likely be the ones organizing your shower, bridal luncheon, and bachelorette party. The maid/matron of honor will have the most responsibilities, of course. She should be someone very close to you since she will be the one who has to deal with your emotions and she will be responsible for getting you where you need, on time, and looking your best.

Most brides are so excited about the wedding, they don't think about what it is going to cost the members of the wedding party. Keep that in mind also when you are selecting your wedding party. the most important thing is that you want all of your bridesmaids to look their best because you will have pictures from the ceremony that are going to last a lifetime!
