Choose your attendants carefully. Not every friend or relative makes the perfect attendant. Selecting the right attendants can help make your wedding more stress free. You especially want your bridesmaids to be:

• RELIABLE - Show up for fittings when they are scheduled. Be on time for the rehearsal and the ceremony!
  
  
• ACCOMMODATING – Able to wear a dress that may not be their “ideal choice” and NOT complain!
  
  
• HELPFUL - Willing to help out with any wedding details, errands, shopping or help putting together favors.

When choosing the members of your wedding party, pick friends and/or family members that you are close with NOW. You may want to ask an old college roommate that you haven't seen in a while, but don't feel obligated to include people just because "you were a bridesmaid in her wedding".
