Mrs. Emerald over at Wedding Bee posted an essay that her younger sister (and maid of honor) wrote for her junior high English class about how to be a maid of honor. The essay is so innocent and sweet, and 100 percent honest! This is a must-read for your honor attendants.
Some highlights:
"It is vital that the train trails elegantly behind the bride. Practice “fluffing” in the air in case doing it wrong during the ceremony plagues your mind...
"Despite being higher up in the hierarchy of the wedding party, the bride will readily order you to run errands and check that everything is running smoothly on the day of the wedding instead of her other bridesmaids. Be prepared to run to and fro complying with her every command much like a subject serving the queen...
"While carrying out such tasks, be sure to remain calm and polite. Even though many duties must be accomplished, the guests that are family friends will stop you every few paces in order to compliment or request that a picture be taken with them..."
