Being a bridesmaid is an honour you may enjoy once or several times in your life. Each bride, and each wedding, presents different challenges and rewards, of course, but the basic tenets of a bridesmaid's tour of duty are always the same. Amy Elliott offers a practical guide to your traditional duties, with dress-buying tips and fun, stylish ideas for the bridal shower and hen party. There's also a Q&A section offering smart solutions to etiquette-related debates and dilemmas. "How to be a Bridesmaid" is also a pep talk, with inspiring quotes from real bridesmaids, bons mots from fashion designers and beautiful photography to illustrate the tasks (and good times!) that await you.
