I told him how excited I was and that the only thing that wasn't perfect is that she asked me not to wear heels because I'm tall and the best man is short, but heels are my favorite and I think I walk funny in dresses without heels! But the main point was that I was really excited and he completely ignored everything and said it's stupid of my friend to ask me not to wear heels because it's just one dance and it shouldn't matter etc... so then I was defending her and her choice (it's HER wedding!) but later when I talked to him (all night at the relay) he was in a better mood and actually was happy for me. My roommate has also been kind of weird lately though, talking behind my back to MY friends about me, and then saying other stuff like that to my face. She was complaining to me last night about my boyfriend just because he didn't agree with something she said. But anyways, this thread isn't about that so I don't want to get too into it!
I'm still super excited for the maid of honor thing! And to be honest I don't really know what my responsibilities are! I'm involved in planning the bridal shower, stagette, and stuff like that, right? And am I supposed to make a speech at the wedding? I didn't want to ask the bride and make her think I didn't know anything!
Yep, you plan a shower and her bachelorette party. She may need assistance with other things and ask for help, like do it yourself projects. Not every maid of honor gives a speech at the reception, it's up to the bride and groom. My maid of honor is giving a speech at my reception. And remember the day of the wedding you will be the one to keep her dress straight, make sure she's looking fabulous and hold her dress up when she needs to pee
