Lazy Susan: A MOH’s right to choose!

March 11, 2010 | by Lazy Susan

Today, Social Grace gave advice to a woman who was asked to be a bridesmaid for two weddings on the same day. While her answer was full of tact and sensitivity, Lazy Susan insisted on weighing in too. So, with much reluctance, we bring you Lazy Susan’s response:

Duh! You choose both of them because liquor isn’t cheap and isn’t getting cheaper, so when two of your loved ones have an open bar on the same day, you can’t turn down either offer. (Especially in this economy!)

But, Susan, you ask, how can I show up to the second wedding after I’ve been drinking all day at the first? Well, guess what? This day isn’t about you. In fact, no one’s even going to notice you. They’ll all be looking at the bride. Take that opportunity to get as crazy as you want to be.

If you absolutely must choose between the two (because of distance or whatnot), then get as much information about the amenities (i.e, menu, cute single men in attendance and of course – which is the prettiest dress). Then make your decision based on that and move on. If anyone questions you, just tell them to deal with it. A bridesmaid is just a step up from being hired help anyway.

EDITOR’S NOTE: Lazy Susan’s advice is purely for entertainment value. NEVER actually take her advice. For your best bet, see what Social Grace has to say!
