My cousin called me up asking if i wanna be in his wedding, ugh "yea of course". Then he immediately turns it into a chore, I need a brief paragraph about you and us for this thing we're doing. Sigh... so, what do i put? The dude is my complete opposite, a motivated achiever. I imagine this is going to go on a website or something, what light-minded crap would just melt to invisibility within all the other statements from random people?

I was asked to be a groomsman, what all does that traditionally entail?

Dressing up. Going to a rehearsal dinner, getting fitted for a tux, and going to the wedding. Then, usually, after the wedding, you go to the reception. No speeches. On the day or near the day of the wedding, though, you generally have your picture taken with the rest of the wedding party. Usually, it's better to get a tux prepared (rented or w/e) before hand to ensure it'll be ready for the wedding. Colors and styles are usually picked out by the bride and groom. It's all it entails. You don't have to be too social. Wait, a paragraph? I've never heard of that. Maybe just a congratulatory thing, then. Do you know what he wants it for?

Thanks! With the paragraph he said it was "for a little thing my fiance's putting together" So I'm assuming a website or scrapbook type thing. "send the picture and quick paragraph about you and/or me and/or melody". I don't even know them well.

Oh, I see. That's nice. Maybe you can ask your parents or someone like that for advice on what to write. I know I would be...
