Speaking of pictures, in the wedding I was in earlier this summer, we got this great shot of the bridal party throwing rose petals at the couple as they ran out of the church. I thought that was pretty cool.
I'm in the "always the bridesmaid, never the bride camp", but my best advice coming from my experience in that capacity is to prepare for contingencies and don't freak out when things don't go as expected. You can't plan for certain things, and you can't control everything. Just relax and enjoy. My friend planned her wedding for two-and-a-half years (and talked of little else), didn't enjoy it, since then has only bitched about what all went wrong.....guess who is rapidly getting phased out of my life....
Oh, and don't forget the bride at the church on your way to the reception...she'll get MAD.
