Why are there bridesmaids and groomsmen in the wedding?

Bridesmaids and groomsmen can be said to be important figures in a wedding working group. Usually, the couple will invite a female companion as a bridesmaid, and some people will invite 6~ 12 girlfriends or sisters, one of whom is a bridesmaid, and some people call it a "companion" or a "bridesmaid". When there is only one bridesmaid, some grooms will invite 2-6 friends to follow the motorcade to marry the bride, so as to make the bride's family beautiful. Everyone is called "the best man", except one main best man. Usually, the number of groomsmen should be matched with that of bridesmaids.

As the name implies, the best man and bridesmaid are the companions and representatives of the new couple. Except for the wedding ceremony and the wedding ceremony, the tasks of the best man and the bridesmaid are slightly different. Most of the time, they need to complete the following two tasks:

Mission 1: personal butler

1, stay close to the couple and accompany them at any time. Especially when couples are on the stage, the best man and bridesmaid must wait at the edge of the stage.

2. Always pay attention to the image of new people. For example, help couples simply tidy up the hem of the suit, the skirt of the dress and the veil, and call a makeup artist to support them when necessary.

3. Pay close attention to the needs of newcomers. The most important thing for the best man and bridesmaid is to have a "wink": it is the best man's job to open the door for the couple, take what they have and help them maintain good manners; When the newcomer is thirsty, he will pass the water; When you see a couple crying, hand in a tissue in time. Many couples forget to rest and are hungry because they are busy or excited, so the best man and bridesmaid must remember to remind them.

4. Be familiar with the personal belongings and personnel arrangements of the newcomers, so as to better help them coordinate and share. In particular, bridesmaids should be familiar with the shoes, underwear and accessories needed for the bride's dress, and take care of the replacement.

5. Qualified bridesmaids and groomsmen should also try their best to ease and appease the new couple's nervousness.

Mission 2: Newcomer Representative

1, Wedding: Bridesmaids should try their best to groom and don't let him take the bride away easily. Even the bride's handkerchief should read the bride's mind and try to let her enjoy the joy and glory of marriage. The best man should "fight" for the groom together with the bridesmaids and other sister groups and help the groom fight for beautiful women.

2. When welcoming guests: The maid of honor's task is to welcome new people and pay attention to their appearance, while the best man and the best man should do most of the reception work.

3. During the dinner: When someone has a problem and the bride is slightly embarrassed, the bridesmaids should step forward and do their best. Now is not the time to be shy around the bride. It is the best man's responsibility to help the groom stop drinking, and he can't shirk it.

4. During the ceremony: bid farewell to the witness, respect the parents and elders, and bid farewell to both parents.

5, make trouble in the bridal chamber: the best man will lead the guests to make trouble from the beginning. Don't get me wrong, the bridal chamber is interesting, and the newcomers will have more face. If not, the best man will take the lead, grasp the scale after the start, and finally see the couple off as appropriate. Bridesmaids can make fun of themselves, just don't forget to observe their words and deeds, stand up for the bride when necessary or try to divert everyone's attention.

Memo of bridesmaids and groomsmen

1. Sometimes bridesmaids will take the responsibility of keeping red envelopes. Please prepare an exquisite but bulky handbag in advance, and remember to give it to the financial supervisor or parents designated by the couple before the ceremony, and ask them to keep it properly.

2. Remind the couple not to forget the ring, or keep the ring for the couple, and make sure to give it to the designated person on the stage before the ceremony.

3, holding a ring pillow, whether it is the best man or the maid of honor to take this job, you must remember to pay attention to your position, so as not to become a "third party" in the photo, and then help the bride pick flowers and take off her gloves. If flower girl is holding a ring pillow, please ask the bridesmaid to take good care of him or her.

4. The groomsman and bridesmaid convey the new couple's voice on the wedding day. Don't hesitate to find relevant staff in time to help newcomers convey their wishes and let professionals provide services for newcomers. Never make a decision without authorization.

Of course, if you plan to hire a professional wedding planner, it doesn't matter whether the best man and bridesmaid have experience. In addition to arranging all the trivial matters in the wedding, wedding planning will also guide and remind the best man and bridesmaid about their work, position and etiquette in the ceremony, and even arrange for the new secretary to perform part of the bridesmaid's work.

Bridesmaids and groomsmen's dresses

The best man wears a relatively formal suit or dress as his coat. If many groomsmen wear formal clothes (such as Chinese tops), it will have a special dramatic effect. Bridesmaids had better wear a little dress, which is beautiful and different, and can also set off the bride. Of course, it must be easy to move, and don't let clothes distract them. After all, the main job is to take care of the bride.

In addition, it should be noted that the dress of bridesmaids and groomsmen should be consistent with the main color of the wedding.

"bridesmaid, best man"

In fact, bridesmaids don't have to be women, and groomsmen don't have to be men. The so-called "bridesmaid" actually refers to the person who accompanies the bride, while the "best man" is the person who accompanies the groom. If the bride's best friend is a man, don't let the word "Niang" as a bridesmaid list him as an unqualified candidate. Similarly, the groom sometimes invites his female friends or sisters to accompany him at the wedding. In fact, many couples have members of the opposite sex in their partner teams. In this case, the best man of the bridesmaid still has to undertake most of the work of the bridesmaid, but is usually called "attendant" or "maid of honor" politely; Although the women on the groom's side are still called "bridesmaids" most of the time, they should be "groomsmen" in terms of tasks.

The best man and maid of honor should be relatives and friends familiar with the couple, preferably younger and unmarried than the couple, and the younger brother and sister can also be the best man and maid of honor. As for the conditions of being the best man and bridesmaid, the most important thing is to be diligent, not afraid of hard work, and be good at creating an atmosphere, which can make the wedding more lively, make the guests more enthusiastic and control the atmosphere at the scene. As the bride and groom, of course, they want to be the focus of the audience on the wedding night, so they will avoid choosing too beautiful female/male friends as bridesmaids to avoid being overshadowed.
