Groomsmen`s
duties
You may not
think that you
will have much
to do but think
again. As
groomsmen you
are probably
close friends or
relatives of the
groom and
therefore must
take on the
responsibilities
of helping him
to prepare for
the big day (No
that does not
mean scare him
with horror
stories of
married life).
Take your role
as groomsmen
serious and help
the groom the
best that you
can.
Not forgeting
all those single
bridesmaids that
you`ll impress
by showing how
responsible you
can be.
Like the
bridesmaids,
you'll have to
pay for your
wedding gear. Of
cause you`ll be
able to rent
your tux which
is a lot cheaper
than the
bridesmaids
dresses. Be sure
to get fitted
well in advance
of the big day
and put a
deposit down to
ensure that it
will be prepared
for the day,
after all you
don`t want to be
walking down the
aisle with a
miss matched
suit or even
worse trousers
that come to
your knees
Be sure to
attend all
pre-wedding
festivities --
engagement
party, stag
party, (no doubt
you won`t forget
this one)
rehearsal
dinner, etc..
One of your
roles is to help
the best man
prepare the stag
night. This is
your chance to
book that
stripper that
you always
wanted for your
eighteenth but
no one got you
one.
Help the best
man and
bridesmaids to
decorate the
get-a-way car
(it sounds like
a bank job
doesn`t it?)
You will of
cause meet the
bridesmaids up
front before the
wedding which
will give you
the perfect
chance to pick
and choose
You will need to
brush up on the
sites for the
ceremony and
reception so you
can help guests
out with akward
questions such
as, "where`s the
toilet? and the
like.
Purchase a
wedding present
from you to both
the bride and
groom. Or
alternatively
you and the rest
of the
groomesmen can
chip in and give
them a
spectacular
gift.
At the reception
it is polite to
dance with the
bridesmaids, so
if you don`t
know how to
dance now is the
time to brush up
on your steps.
