Something else unusual has just happened to me. I have just been asked to be a bridesmaid. Weddings are such magical events to attend but I see the toll that it is taking on the bride and the maid of honor. They are both sleepless and glued to the phone making arrangements.I felt honored to be asked to be a bridesmaid. Even if it looks like it is going to be a busy busy wedding, I do look forward to helping out with the event and giving my utmost support to the bride and the maid of honor. I have already planned a list of things to go into my artillery bag. Things like bobby pins, Bach's Rescue Remedy, safety pins, packs of Party Feet, and mini hairspray to stop a run in stockings.
When she called me to ask if I would play the part, I remember myself thinking about some very important questions: Will I be able to take the dress in for alterations after the event (or even before)? What type of entertainment do we give the bride on Hen Night? etc. etc. I really would love it if any of you would have advice for me on how to be a good bridesmaid and what do I do if I can't stand talking to one of the groomsmen anymore?

Thanks so much darling for showing me some anniversary love. I love the support and networking that I've been doing with you and other blogs.
Congrats on being a bridesmaid! I was asked to be on early this year but my bride has no clue when the wedding will be yet, lol...so I'm coasting until she gives me a call. This will be my first bridesmaid experience so we'll be learning together! Have a wonderful upcoming weekend!
Oh dear, thank you so much for your kind words and for your mention, you're such a great supportive friend blogger.
Thank you so much sweetie.
Wow, being a bridesmaid... congrats. I think you will be very busy, but I also think this experience can be rewarding.
Have a nice weekend dear.

PS - Love that "trenchcoat" painting, and yes it's the best piece to wear now that the weather went "crazy".

Thank you darling for your very lovely and stylish comment! You are so sweet!
A good trenchcoat makes a person super stylish, no matter what weather! I have one trenchcoat I love a lot and that's the only reason makes me like windy days :) A great in-between jacket is hard to find, but once you've got one, you will love it for years!
Being a bridesmaid sounds so sweet, romantic, maybe busy but totally worthy it! Have a great weekend xxxxxxxx
