I too am the maid of honour for my best friend's wedding next year (September 2008).
These are all great tips, as I have never been MOH before.
As for dresses, we have already gone looking for dresses, and have found one we like. Do take into consideration the different bodies types of the bridesmaids. Try to pick a style that that is flattering to everyone. Also, keep in mind that sample dresses do not come in every size, so more than likely not everyone will be able to try on the dress. Depending on the size of the girls, sty away from dresses that are short and clingy. Dresses with rouching (sp?) in the midsection are very flattering on most girls, as it hides a multitude of flaws. A-line style dresses also flatter most people.
Check out designer Alfred Angelo, who makes dresses in 0-28W, and has seperates, so you can mix and match, in a wide variety of colours.
It also helps if you can bring the girls with you, to look at dresses, because they know what looks best on them.
