Bridal Shows...

Bridal shows are NOT for wussies ladies!!! These things are over-run by bridezillas, clueless grooms, edgy mother-of-the brides, nervous mother-of-the grooms, bridesmaids, and any other opinionated person that the bride can think to tote along! The real reason that these events are even held, is to give the bride and groom ideas and direction to go with their wedding. Bridal shows are a wonderful place to see color schemes, decorated cakes, see sample photography, pick up ideas for the honeymoon, where to register for your wedding gifts, collect brochures about local bridal shops, and most of all, EAT! Good God! I've never been so sick and bloated in my entire life. If you've got plans to attend a bridal show, do yourself a favor and do not eat breakfast or lunch. Especially if you've got a dress fitting within the next few days! Do yourself a favor my faithful MOHs, DO agree to go to at least one bridal show with the bride. Bridal shows are usually about $15 and worth it to the bride to give her mind a kick start for her wedding. Some of the most creative people in your area will be there. My only other advice that I have is to wear tennis shoes! You'll walk five miles of convention floor, up and down aisles before the day is done! Wear a big smile girls, this is for your best friend...and one day when you get married, you can drag her around to do the same shit! (There are no rules about the duties of an MOH, but attending at least one bridal show with the bride is required if she asks you to, more than one means that you're a terrific friend, and attending more than two bridal shows with her means that you need to get your head out of her ass, as this is NOT your wedding!)
