Don't worry about anything. Your job is to just be there to help, but usually you don't have to do anything to major. The maid or matron of honor will handle most of the details. Ask her if she needs anything and then follow through. She will be thankful for the help and you will have a great experience. Contact me if you have any questions.
Be active in the choice of your gown. It needs to match your style and age. Really talk to the bride and express your views if what she is choosing bothers you. She will be thankful for the input and help.
Contact the maid or matron of honor and let her know that you would like to help with one of the parties. Be a little more grown up an have some fun getting to act it without someone asking you to act your age.
Have a great time. Don't be nervous. Walk slowly down the isle. But most of all be yourself.

Don't worry! Just look beautiful in your dress and that's all. The day before the ceremony, there is usually a rehearsal. At the rehearsal, you rehearse the ceremony. They'll tell you when to enter, how to walk, where to stand, when to leave, etc. So, you should be fine.
I know this answer because my little cousin is being a Jr. Bridesmaid in my wedding this October. And if you have any real concerns, don't be afraid to talk to the bride. She'll make sure that you get the hang of it.
Good luck and congrats on being asked to be a bridesmaid!

Don't worry. I'm sure there will be a someone to let you know what to do. In all the weddings I've been in, there has been a wedding coordinator. There should be a rehearsal. On the day of the wedding, just relax. Make sure you smile. If you feel nervous with all those people, just look straight ahead at the altar.

You'll be fine! Try to stay calm. I know it's hard not to be nervous, but smile! I learned that in theatre -- no matter what happens, keep that smile pasted on your face, and that's what people will see.
You should have a rehearsal the day before the wedding, so you'll get a run-through of what's going to happen. If you have your shoes, try to wear them a bit where you're not going to get them scuffed, so you can break them in a little. If you have a long dress and you're not used to wearing them, try walking in it a few times, or what we used to do in theatre, to keep from messing up the costumes (or if they weren't made yet) is we used rehearsal skirts, just plain simple long skirts to get used to moving in them.
The first wedding I was ever in, I was the bride, but I didn't trip or anything. :) And I'm sure I was just as nervous as you are now.
Just have fun!

Don't panic. Usually, the maid of honor will have a list of things for other bridesmaids to do. Besides getting your dress ready, you can contact the maid of honor and ask if anything you can do.
Enjoy the wedding.

It's not really a position that you need experience with. Just go to rehearsal the night before and do what the bride instructs you to do. It should be pretty simple. Most importantly, have fun!! Relax!

Just ask the bride if there's anything she needs you to do or help with. If she does not give you anything, ask the maid of honor and relax. Be on time to everything you're invited to, get your dress and shoes and smile for the pictures. You'll be fine.
