No Bullshit Wedding Advice: I am not a bride
I am not a bride. I am a cisgendered queer man. My partner is not a bride. He is a cisgendered gay man. There is a difference between “queer” and “gay” here, but that’s not my focus.
I am not a bride. I don’t want to know what dress whatever website or magazine will think is “hot” on me or…

Be responsive to wedding correspondance.
It doesn’t matter who is emailing, calling, texting, or paging you, REPLY!!! The most stressful thing for those involved in wedding planning is an unresponsive wedding party. Sometimes all they need to know is your size for wedding attire or opinion on a decision. If the bride keeps texting you and you have a shit phone, tell her you would rather be emailed. Communication is key. Don’t be an asshole.

Vegas
Apart from being a bachelor celebration, this weekend’s trip serves a more important purpose. Throughout the weekend I will be holding a gauntlet of Vegas related challenges for my groomsmen. The ultimate champion will be crowned Best Man. To the victors go the spoils.
this is actually a fabulous idea if you are equi-close to your wedding party

Get to know the bride.
Everyone has a different relationship with their marrying couple. For me, I am lucky enough to be quite close to the bride - even moreso now that we are tackling this wedding stuff together. Regardless of your relationship to the bride (or whether you are male, female, best man, or groomsman), you should make sure the bride feels included in your relationship with the groom and your enthusiasm for her happy day, as well as your bro’s, is clear. If you have never met her before or only a handful of times, make sure you make her feel supported.
