Lighten the mood by offering to hire young attractive male models to distract Aunt Marie from coming to the wedding.<\/p>\n<p>3. <strong>&#8220;Just go with it&#8221;:<\/strong> The perfect bridesmaid is willing to just dive in and go with whatever it is you want them to wear or do.<\/p>\n<p>4.<strong> Proactive:<\/strong> Having a proactive bridesmaid means she is happy to take initiative in helping with planning your wedding. \u00a0She will offer to \u00a0research best venues and fix problems before you even notice them.<\/p>\n<p>5.<strong> Leadership:<\/strong> Being able to connect with the other bridesmaids and help them sort out what they need to do will take a lot of pressure off the bride.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Let&#8217;s face it. \u00a0There is a lot that goes into planning pre-wedding festivities, the wedding and reception, and the honeymoon.
