Don’t forget about your amazing bride tribe you have asked to be by your side on your special day! They are not only there to love and support you, but also to serve you in any way that will help you feel calm and extra loved up. I always recommend to my brides that they really lean in to their bride tribes and delegate a little wedding day task to each of them. Trust me when I say they really want to make your day so relaxing and helpful!!
Here’s some bride tribe tasks to delegate that will make you feel more at ease and keep you covered on your big day:
1. Hydration – make sure a bestie has you covered. Trust me this is often forgotten because of nerves etc and it is so important. You don’t want a migraine before your big moment!
2. some kind of light munchies – crackers are a must as the carbs help with energy and an upset stomach if you are too nervous to fully eat. Cheese or fruit is also a great addition
3. Coffee or tea drinker? A small cup midway through your day might be just what you need
4. Music – is there a certain playlist that makes you feel relaxed? make sure your bestie knows
5 Video memories from that day- bride tribe messages to you/all the early wild fun and chaos of getting ready together. The laughs, tears and everything in between. Not everyone hires a videographer. Put a bestie on this duty. No photo can ever replace those precious unfiltered video captures
6. A Runner- need to check in with your fiance about anything? Forgot something? Have a question for your coordinator or need their assistance with something? This is the perfect task for a bestie. Let them call, text, or handle this communication for you. Let them be the go between so you can just sit back and relax.

Remember, your bride tribe=your people=all the love🥰Let them love you up well!
I especially love how you highlight the bride tribe as an *active support system*, not just an emotional one. Breaking tasks down into practical roles like hydration, music, and being a runner is incredibly helpful for real brides who often underestimate how overwhelming the day can feel.

One thing this article also made me think about is how small ambience details can further support a calm, stress-free wedding morning. Soft lighting, for example—like using candles or flameless candles in the getting-ready space—can really help set a relaxed, intimate tone for the bride and her tribe while they prepare together. It’s one of those subtle elements that works hand in hand with good coordination and a supportive bridal party.
