I ve once served as best man to my best friend actually.
Thank goodness I can boast/bet with this couple since we (3 of us) ve been friends. Thus, I ve this influence on them both, which was visible even from their traditional wedding till the wedding proper.

vivian chinaza: 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.




great Gurl! but hey, xpect nothing from dese pound of flesh called humans!

You know I love you? Please nne, type in full. Whenever I see your shorthand writing, I honestly try to understand but when I can't, I just give up. Like the above post

Hi, I sent you a pm over a month ago. I sent one to Chaircover right about the same time and she acknowledged the receipt of this pm.
Sorry to ambush you like this, but, I need to know if you received it, because you never got back to me. Thanks!

Like Vivian said, " I picked my dress" So the chief bride's maid chooses what she wears or the Bride chooses what she wears?

I have actually played a best man role before but I do not think I played my role right compared to many times that I have been one of the groom's men. I think the reason why I couldn't really play the role as expected were because: my friend wasn't working at the time which I never really supported and thus, I couldn't put my best in the role. Anyways, today he is working and they are doing pretty well.

That doesn't sound like a joke to me. Cos its way outta line. What has "vivian is a control freak" got to do with joke and what I posted earlier on?
Believe me, my intentions were not so serious. I meant see as you organise everything together into one cohesive post and you flared up.

Chill girl nobody is after you.

Well I guess I am sorry is in order and I will not refer to you anymore.

Apology accepted.........you don't have to blame me, your choice of words were not so good coupled with the fact that you are used to calling me names, that I overlook it doesn't mean its ok by me, I'm very sensitive to words.

We are good, but I just wish there is a way we could disagree without names calling.

I'm sorry too for flaring up.
