	One of the greatest honours is being asked to be part of a bride and groom's wedding party. However this is an honour that does hold some traditional responsibilities that we will detail here. The responsibilities are a guideline only, and ultimately it is up to the various attendants and the bride and groom as to exactly what role each will play.
