"Popping The Question"
In all likelihood, your bridesmaids will be among the first people to know that
you're planning to get married. That's because most brides ask their closest
friends and family members in a flurry of excited phone calls! However, there
are no rules prescribing the right people to choose and there is no particularly
right way to ask. It's entirely up to you. In general, your bridesmaids should
be your sociable and engaging friends and family members, since many of their
duties (in addition to organizational ones) will involve hosting, greeting and
introducing. You can also have Junior Bridesmaids, generally between eight and
fourteen years of age, who wear "junior" bridesmaid dresses. Or you can have
Senior Bridesmaids - like a great aunt or grandmother - who may be your closest
confidant or best ally. However, in the great majority of weddings, brides
select friends and family around their own age, whom they know will be
supportive and helpful in the planning process. Bridesmaids in your age group
can also relate well to the groomsmen, who are generally around the same age as
the groom. But before you get ready to announce your bridesmaid nominees, you
should be well aware of the bridesmaids' responsibilities, so you can be sure
your bridal party can handle their duties. Once you have made your decision, an
easy way to "pop the question" is a Bridesmaid cards
