Sorry for the confusion. It was the first time I've posted for this site.
In regards to the bride's maide situation, I can attest to the confussed and stressed state of the bride. My best friend has just celebrated her third wedding anniversary. We both have had a good laught over how I found out I was in the bridal party. I was so excited when I found out she was engaged. For an engagement present I gave her a stack of bridal magazines and a list of 14 things to do. Needless to say I waited for her to ask me to be in her bridal party, after all we had been through hell and high water together. When it didn't happen I realized that maybe I wasn't suppose to be in the party, I was just suppose to be the steady friend that shewould need at this crazy wonderful time. One day while we were still at school, we're both teachers, I told her that I understood that I was to be her strong arm to lean on. Well the look on her face was priceless, she told me that I was to be a bride's maide and that she had asked me. I told her no you didn't. Talking about confussed. She stared at me and she couldn't think of not having me there standing with her. So yes, brides to be can be a little out there. Go have a great time at the wedding.
