As A Best-man / Chief-bridesmaid by RuuDie(m): 5:34am On Nov 12, 2012
Have you ever been a best-man or bridesmaid!?

What role did you do for the couple before, during and the marriage? What challenges did you face? What did you enjoy the most, what did you hate the most. . .and would you do it again if presented the opportunity?

Yes I have been, and I'm about to again.
My duties?
Before and on the wedding day:
I help in planning the wedding, running around, making choices, remind her of things she forgets. Then take care of her, make sure she doesn't stress herself much, remind her to eat and rest when necessary etc. In fact, she owns me for these 2 days, and she is permitted to boss me around.

Who buys my chief bridesmaid dress? I do.

After the wedding:
Its my duty to help her be the best wife she can be by not giving her the wrong piece of advise if she ever confides in me.
If I see her taking the wrong path that I know will jeopardise her marriage, I will call her to order. Etc.

These are what I have done for my friends, and I'm about to do again, and they are what I'd expect from my chief when my own time comes.

What makes me a control freak? Do you have comprehensive skills at all? I keep telling you, you are still a kid, until you grow up you won't understand some certain things.

Best man/maid of honour are honourable positions ok, its beyond putting on suit and dress on that day. In as much as ur signature appears on the marriage certificate, you have a role to play in their lives.

And I'm warning for the last time, don't ever make remark about me again, I didn't quote u, I wasn't referring to u. If my posts irritate you, move to the left.

I like reliable people like you. Always dedicated and take responsibility seriously.

You have really interpreted your role very well. Ideally, the role of best man/chief bride's maid ought to transcend the friendship and the wedding day.
You must look out for the couple going forward.

But Vivian lemme advise you- "What you do for another, don't expect for yourself. Else you be disappointed. Most people are unreliable and would disappoint you at the slightest opportunity".
