When I moved to California I noticed a huge difference in the show quality as well as the look and style of the male strippers dancing.

when I needed to know how to write my own Maid Of Honor Speech, I needed all the help I could get. I had waited until the last minute to prepare my speech and was desperate for some advice.

I decided to share what I learned with you. And support all of Maid and Matron’s Of Honors to be to hopefully help you in preparing your wedding speech.

Thanks for sharing
Regd,

There is nothing wrong with everyone helping out financially, but…help can come in the form of making the decorations, deliverying invitations or mailing them, preparing food, running errands, etc. Do not forget people’s time is valuable. Just have a luncheon or get all the girls together, sit down and talk money. Be honest and don’t make anyone feel bad if they can’t afford much. It would be nice to have a budget before you start this. Do not expect everyone to pay the same amount. Then get everyone’s input and ideas and plan it together. These events do not have to be expensive. Simple but fun. You might consider a couples shower at someone’s home and have a backyard bbq. I just went to one last weekend. It was great to get to meet the groom and he even got gifts too (tools). The best man can help out with this.

I would ask the others to see if they wanted to pitch in. Some people may think that since you are planning it you have to pay for it, thats just how some people think. Ask and see what they say, no harm in asking.

I think it is great idea for everone to pitch in, after all they are the brides closest friends and i am sure they would like for the bride to have memoriable time. But when palnning to have to consider everyone’s budget before defining what type of shower/party you will be throwing. Having everyone give an in put to what the bride may like and what they are willing to contribute, whether it is financially or assistant wise.

If you get someone to contribute the location as ti keeping it their house/apartment, another can help with the snacks/ffood, another with drinks, decorations whatever the case is.

A good idea, that is not to expensive is the rent a hotel room for the night. Bring along some snacks. Do a scavenger hunt type game around the hotel, example, have evryone paired of, give each pair a list of things to do and get and be back at the room at a certain time and whoever wins gets a prize. You can have them take a underwear from another guy’s room, jump in the pool with clothes on, you can think is many crazy things for them to do but the must take pictures to show.

Another cheap idea is to have sleepover. Everyone can take turns giving each other facials and pedicures. Rent girls flick movies.

For the shower, have the bride register somewhere, and keep the shower in the park or someone backyard or home and just have the brides prepare the snacks.

just involve everyone in the planning and i am sure they will contribute in one way or the other.

As a bridesmaid, I was never asked to pitch in at all for the bridal shower. However, for these weddings, the moms actually paid for everything (but still wanted the maid of honor to be listed as the host). If this had not been the case, and had I been asked to contribute, I definately would have. That's just too much to expect the maid/matron of honor to pay for alone. All of the times as a bridesmaid, I did pitch in for the bachelorette party.

In all the weddings I’ve been in, the Maid/Matron of honor and bridesmaids have split any financial obligations that came up for the shower and partys. Here are some ideas however to keep the costs down. If the bride or her family is a member of a church, ask to host the shower there or at one of your homes if it is large enough. One of the great things about having it at a church is that they often will allow you to use the tables and linens as well as serving peices and punch bowls. This can save you a ton compared to renting. And most of the time there is no cost involved…just clean up afterwards. They often have centerpieces and candles that you can use as well.

Divide up the responsibilities….have one be in charge of games….if the games require "props" or any expense then that person will need to cover the cost….so it will be up to her. As far as gifts or door prizes for the games go, just split them up….and have everyone buy 1 gift…within their own means (from candles to bubble bath to costume jewelry or picture frames) then decide what gift will be given with what game depending on difficulty.

As far as cake, punch and snacks go, try to make many of them yourselves…or ask a family member to help. If someone has a beautiful garden or green thumb as them for some fresh cut flowers to use in decorating for the shower. The costs can be kept minimal it just takes creativeness and cooperation.
