Hello guys. Lurking here a while, but I would like some advice from you guys.


So one of my bridesmaids is one of my closest friends from middle and high school and we've kept being close even through college and now after as proper adults. She said yes straight away to being a bridesmaid. She's also a bit of a tomboy, more so she's just very un-girly. She's not into dresses, makeup, fashion and all that kinda stuff. The last time I saw her in a dress was our senior prom and that was a while ago. I think she wore one to a family event not so long ago. Should I ask her to wear a dress for the ceremony? My wedding is also going to be very formal, and a "glam" wedding, so are there any good alternatives to a dress that she could wear that isn't a suit?

Also I feel as if a lot of the wedding planning process and the fun around it is a pretty girly thing, so is there anyway I can make sure she doesn't feel lost or left out. She's my closest friends and I don't want this whole thing to be a chore for her.

    Hi guys, thank you all for your advice. I'll ask her whether she's comfortable to wear a dress for the ceremony. I like the alternatives you guys have put up.
