Unlike most girls, I've never dreamt about my wedding when I was growing up. Hence, I'm absolutely clueless when it comes to this most important event in a girl's life. So, when my recently engaged best friend appointed me as her 'Maid-of-Honor', my first reaction was panic.
Though I feel honored to be chosen as her right-hand-girl, I have never played an active role in organizing a wedding from A to Z, and know nothing about where to start, what the Maid of Honor is supposed to do, etc, etc. I'm not the most traditional person around, which makes it even worse when it comes to traditional and customary ceremonies. Nevertheless, I took on the challenge [how can you say no to your bestie of 23 years?!] and will do the best I can to fulfill my duties as Maid-of-Honor and help my best friend organize the wedding of her dreams.
I thought it'd be a great idea to document my journey down the aisle as a first time Maid-of-Honor as I learn what to do [and not do] on organizing a wedding. I'm sure the learning experience will be filled with fun, joy, laughter, tears, stress and frustration, and hopefully, it will strengthen the bond between my bestie and I, as well as allowing me to get to know her and myself at a deeper level.
Hopefully when the entire affair is over, and when I re-visit the entries of this blog, it'll bring back sweet memories of the following one and a half years.
Wish me luck!
