Groomsmen is a group of men that usually includes brothers or friends of the groom. These men work closely with the groom and his best man. It is a great honour to be a groomsman, and the groomsmen are required to perform their duties.
Groomsmen need to make themselves available for important tasks, such as getting fitted for their formal wear. They get to attend the bachelor party, and they are expected to help with the party and wedding preparations.

Groomsmen are also needed as moral support for the groom. They will assist the groom throughout the preparation and ceremony, and keep everything going on smoothly. On the big day itself, groomsmen may also act as ushers. They may help escort the bride and groom’s mothers, and also usher guests to their seats. They may also escort bridesmaids down the aisle.

Organising a hen party is typically the duty of the maid of honour. Not to be confused with a bridal shower, a hen party or hen night is usually more intimate and less formal than a bridal shower.

When organising a hen party, you will need to decide on the theme. You should know the bride and how she is like. The bride could be outgoing and wild, or sexy but a little shy. Devils and angels, playboy bunnies, sexy nurses and nuns, and celebrities could be the theme of the hen party. Make sure that the bride and the other guests are comfortable with the chosen theme.

You should also know the bride’s hobbies and interests. Get ideas for the party activities based on her interests. Perhaps she enjoys getting massages, which means you can invite masseuses for a pampering session during the party.

Other activities such as truth or dare, and spin the bottle could be played with adult twists for added fun. Do not forget the food and drinks, as no party would be complete without. The key to make a hen party a success is to ensure that everyone, especially the bride is having the time of their lives.

A bridesmaid is an important person in a wedding. Some brides even have more than one bridesmaid other than her maid of honour.

bridesmaids Responsibilities of a Bridesmaid

The bridesmaid helps the bride in planning the wedding. She assists the maid of honour with bridal shower and hen night. She also helps the bride with errands on the big day.
Crafty brides may need her bridesmaids to help in making DIY wedding favours and decorations, and they will help in arranging the wedding favours as well.

On the big day, the bridesmaids will help with organising or assisting with makeup and hair.
Bridesmaids are expected to bear the expenses for their dresses, accessories, travel and accomodation, although sometimes the bride will cover the expenses. More often than not, bridesmaids will share the expenses for the bridal shower and hen night with the maid of honour.

Bridesmaids will attend pre-wedding parties and rehearsals. During the wedding procession, the bridesmaids will walk right after the bride. They will also stand near the bride during the ceremony.

At the reception, bridesmaids are seated with the bride and groom, and they are photographed as part of the party. They will also have a dance with the groomsmen. At the end of the night, the bridesmaids will help with clearing up, if needed.
