When it comes to weddings, your girlfriends help you hold it together. Don't let wedding planning ruin your friendships.
You're planning a wedding, and emotions are high. Triumphs, upsets, smiles, tears, laughter, doubts - the emotional roller coaster will surely go full force as you prepare for the big day. And so they're by your side - your girlfriends, that is - offering strength and support along the way to ensure a smooth ride on your journey towards "man and wife." They've done a lot for you over the years

You needed them then - you need them now.
Maintain your relationships with your bridesmaids with these tips:
Reach Out
You've heard that communication is key in your relationships with men; the same goes for relationships with your girlfriends. Keep the lines of communication open, and avoid the tendency for tension and division when "one of the girls" gets engaged. With the existence of email, there really is no excuse for losing touch with your friends. Of course, phone calls and face to face meetings are always better

Plan a Girls' Night
Arrange a girls night - and celebrate them for a change. You probably aren't doing much wedding planning on a Friday night anyway

Just shoot an email (yes, email is fine) to your gal pals with a time and place to meet for a happy hour, movie or dinner. Your girls are busy too, but even if everyone can't make it, your friends will appreciate your effort to reach out.
Involve Them In Your Plans
Some of your wedding plans can be a group effort; add a bottle of wine, some cheese and crackers, and you've got yourself a fun little get together. No - they're not your slaves - and you shouldn't demand your friends spend hours stuffing envelopes. But if they ask to help - take them up on it. Make it fun; chat about non-wedding topics while you work.
