Your maid of honor and best man will be the ones standing beside you as you officially tie the knot. They have been with you through thick and thin, and now they stand beside you on the most special day!
The maid of honor is also in charge of fixing your train and veil once you get to the end of the aisle, and they will also grab your bouquet from you so you can hold hands with your soon to be husband during your ceremony!
