#WEDDINGWEDNESDAY

#WeddingWednesday

Today is the day we talk all things weddings.

Today , we want to talk about the role of the maid of honour or chief bridesmaid.

While the title of maid of honour traditionally went to the bride's sister or a close female family member, today, brides have free reign to ask anyone to be a "maid of honour" on the big day.

Nonetheless, this role should be designated to a person who is close to the bride and to someone who will have the time and energy to complete every task throughout the entire wedding journey.

While every wedding will vary based on the bride's specific needs, there are several tasks required of this special position!

She needs to support & help the bride prepare for her wedding. 

This can include planning the engagement party, the hen party, be a sounding board for any queries, help with the list of invitations , and wedding day tasks like decorating, dressing, and calming any wedding day anxiety.

Always make sure to have an emergency kit for the bride to include the essentials in case she needs anything from lipstick to baby wipes, deodorant, etc.

Please also try to keep the bride calm and not add to any stress. This might even involve keeping an eye on problematic bridesmaids or family members.

The Talbot Hotel Clonmel has its next viewing day on Sunday 18th February from 12pm until 5pm, so if you are recently engaged, why not pop in for a viewing.

Appointments can be made by ☎️ 052-6188700 or 📧  weddings@talbothotelclonmel.ie
