With wedding season in full affect, I thought to myself, why not make it a little easier for the maid of honor. I've been in that position before, and you definitely want to assist your friend/bride to be to your fullest, as well as be organize to remove some bridal stress. So I came up with a list of duties to assist the bride and prepare the maid of honor.
