Maid of Honor

Guest written by our friend Gladys Fuentes

My sister is getting married next month and I’ve got the privilege of being the maid of honor. It’s a daunting task and I don’t know that I would have accepted had I known how much work goes into this position! The biggest thing that’s tripped me up are all the showers that have to be planned. Between the engagement party, the bridal shower, the bridesmaid’s luncheon (which I had to help with) and the bachelorette party, I’ve become a regular event planner! Not only that, but this whole wedding deal is EXPENSIVE! We’re all expected to get my sister and her fiancé gifts for each of these showers, on top of purchasing our bridesmaids dresses! I decided early on to just get them one big gift and I had come across some CLEAR INTERNET specialswhich worked great as a present for their new home together. They liked it and I could spend my time trying to make sure each shower was perfect. All I can hope is that when I get married, my sister spends just as much effort on me!
