Celebrate with your bridesmaids
If ever there was a reason for more champagne, then this is it. Ensure that being your bridesmaid isn't a daunting thought for them by toasting your squad in style and getting the party started to mark the occasion. Making sure that all the chosen ladies get along and they can party together with you.

Announce your squad
One of the best moments of planning a wedding is announcing your choices to your bridesmaids. The official Bridesmaid announcements are big business right now. Get creative and think how best to break the news to your group. Personalized sweet treats (think macarons, cupcakes and cake pops); personal gifts to each girl, presentation boxes filled with photos, champagne and chocolates; or an afternoon tea celebration for you and your ladies, offer some interesting ways to make a moment out of the announcement. Discuss their roles and responsibilities and in the nicest possible way, your expectations.

Assign roles
When the MOH is decided upon, think about how the rest of your bridesmaids can have a part to play in the planning process. They should ALL have some input in the hen party and the wedding preparations, but you can also assign individual tasks to make them feel extra appreciated: late-night DIY projects, arranging the hair and make-up trials, and coordinating the dress fittings, are all jobs some of your maids can take on.

Choose your Maid of Honor
Once you have settled on your squad, decide who will take the lead role as maid of honor. This might be an obvious decision for some, but for those who need a little more help consider the responsibilities that come with the chief position (directing the bridesmaids, hosting the hen party, holding the bride's bouquet and arranging her veil on the day etc.). The MOH should be sensible, practical, organized... and know how to throw a great party. Make sure the lady you choose can fulfill all of her expected duties.

Are you having flower girls?
Don't forget your flower girls (or page boys, for that matter). You can have as many flower girls as you wish. Something different and fun is a Flower Girl Parade is made up of more than one flower girl. Be creative with the traditional carrying of the pedals in a basket. Change it up and have the flower girls carry a bouquet of flowers for both Mom’s, both Grandmother’s etc. If there are infant relatives or children of your own to accommodate in the bridal procession, think about how this will impact on the dynamic and look of the group.

Beware of the bride who has been there and done it
She may have great ideas and advice because she has got the t-shirt, but this friend has the potential to take over your planning. Constantly comparing to her big day and dictating what you should and shouldn't do can become a worrying prospect, so assess her personality in the first instance and approach with caution.

Don't forget your childhood friends
A childhood friend who is a friend for life should definitely be considered as one of your leading ladies. You may not see them as much as you like but when you do see each other it's like nothing ever changed, so give them some serious thought. On the flip side, if you have a childhood friend who doesn't come close to the relationship you have with your more recent gal pals, then don't feel you have to choose them.

Who are your nearest and dearest?
While you may have a big social circle, choosing your bridesmaids should not be a people-pleasing exercise. Think about who you speak to regularly, who show genuine interest in your life, who are trustworthy and kind, and who have been there through thick and thin... they are the keepers and the ones who will make the best bridesmaids

Consult your family
There's nothing worse than a family feud on a wedding day, so make sure you ask the family members who should be traditionally part of the bridal party. While sisters, sister-in-law’s and nieces can be commonplace, you can start to put your foot down when second cousins twice-removed are suggested.
