My bestfriend is getting married in summer, and she invited my along with her and to stay with her the few weeks we are going to be there. Now, i havent been on any shadis, the last one i attended was when i was a kid and dont remember much…
What is important for me to do? I dun know what my role in this all is? How am i expected to be and how to wear and all that. Even though the wedding isnt before in july, but the thought of not knowing anything of shadis is making me nervous! I just dont want to do anything that would offend her, so all of u have been to many shadies or have any clue. Could you please help me so i get in the right direction without making a fool of myself.
If anyone would care to give me any tips or ideas both on my role in this and what to wear and etc. and i would be grateful!
support her! be there for her and listen to her and understand when she goes thru all kinds of weird emotions :) remember its her day and try and make it go as easy and smoothly as you can manage.
i honestly don't think i would have gotten married without my bff/maid of honor there! she did so much behind the scenes that i only found out recently... im so grateful she was there. she shielded me from all the craziness, took care of all the last minute errands, made sure i remembered to keep my cool and calm me down when things started getting hectic... really, its time for you to be the best best friend you can be! :)
Hm a wedding is a good time to test the friendship, intentionally or not. just realize it's gonna be a hectic time and don't take anything personally...
Uhmmmm....also idk.
Thx for ur advise everyone! The supporting part ill manage...but im still not comfy with the thought of living at her place... her sister isnt very fond of me though....im just worried how to act with her family there...im not the type who makes everyone smile by saying something sweet or funny. Im usual silent...and it feels like alot of work to keep up with all them...I just hope i wont end up doing anything stupid....:(
keep on eying cute guys ;) - well its not necessary to actually be funny, out spoken to make people to like you; if you are silent and shy then you can just be nice to people you actually do manage to talk to or the ones who talk to you themselves and you can also just the owners of the house their space so that they feel comfortable having an outsider in their house during the whole event. There are times when some aunties are actually very blunt and straight forward so they would perhaps say something that you wouldnt appreciate at times but just think positive and tell yourself that they are your own aunts/mums age and they would also talk the same way to their own nieces/daughters like that as well so no need to take it to heart. Just stick with your friend and hope everything goes on well :).
Lolz at TeenDabbyWala's comment:P so u suggest that i should wear a ring on my finger so i look like im engaged? Im not the type u want to make ur bahoo aur ur wife...so i hope everyone stays away:p lolz....im happy with being single;) hopefully will be single a loong time, if not whole my life:P
I will just continue here, cause i need some advice on the same topic. i hope the mods wont close this...
I am wondering what i should give in wedding gift to my bestfriend? Is something jewellry ok? Or are there any other "rules" i dont know of? Its important for me cause im like her older sister, and i know im a big part of her life as she is in mine. And i dont have any other who i can ask these questions to, therefore it seemed rite to ask you guys here. Many of you seem like that you have experience with the aspects around shadi's and so on...And i hope some of you will help me out:) Thx alot for taking out time and reading this post:)
you should give her something that she will value and that means something to you both. if that is a nice jewellery set she'll wear over and over, then fab. if its clothing she appreciates, then get that. if you know she loves to cook and theres a particular thing she wants, get that. make it meaningful, regardless of what it is, and thats about the only rule there is to gift-giving :)
Make sure you deck out in pretty clothes and take time out for your own makeup and hair, the bride’s already hitched who cares, its you who will be meeting cute guys
