how to choose your wedding party

In one word. Carefully. In a few more words. With a stress-free day in mind. Simply put, if your friends are snotty, rude and unreliable before your wedding, they are going to be that plus ten during the planning process and on the day of your wedding. When you have a friend or relative stand up for you at your wedding, they are essentially saying that they will support you and your marriage and pray for you and your marriage. Do not put people in that position simply because they are your sorority sister or fraternity brother or an old childhood friend. Put them in that position because you know they have your best interests at heart. And that interest should begin long before you become engaged.
