Picking your Best Man and Maid of Honor
I have seen a lot of great guys take on the responsibility of best man and do an outstanding job. Mostly, I’ve seen some great guys do a mediocre job. Why is this? Well, I think it is because we want to choose our best friends to stand up with us, instead of thinking about what the responsibilities are and what is required of the person who will stand up with us. You see, the best man and the maid of honor should be selected to help us with things like fetching a glass of water, keeping guest away prior to the ceremony, helping you with whatever you need!
The other major thing is the best man and the maid of honor should be great at giving a toast. The best man and the maid of honor should be wonderful at keeping secrets, if necessary. They should do everything to ensure the bride and the groom is not included in any drama. The best man should ensure the rings and the license are on site the day of the wedding. The maid of honor should make sure the bride has everything she needs to relax and prepare for her special day.
The maid of honor should host the bridal shower and the best man should make sure the bachelor party is fun, safe and what the groom wants.
If these individuals are chosen to help the bride and groom, instead of just being best friends, I think weddings would be easier, more relaxed and definitely more fun!
