Serve as a Maid (or Matron) of Honor
Walking down the aisle (alone)
On the day of the wedding, you should attend to
the bride as she is dressing for the big event and
make sure she eats a generous prewedding meal. At
the ceremony itself, you're loosely in charge of
the other bridesmaids, making sure that they know
their roles, that their dresses are ironed, that
they're wearing the right color of nail polish, and
that they refrain from growing too rowdy (although
at some weddings this is encouraged, so check with
the bride first).
In a traditional wedding, you directly precede
the bride down the aisle and are seated next to her
during the service. Once the bride completes her
own processional, you relieve her of her bouquet.
You'll also make any adjustments to the bride's
train, should she be wearing one. If it is a
double-ring ceremony, you'll also have charge of
the groom's ring and should produce it at the right
time.
