Are you having a problem finding enough bridesmaids?

It doesn't have to be even. Seriously. Ask the people you love and want to stand next to you. Don't pick people to make your pictures look pretty.

Uneven bridal party here.

Well, just have the last biridesmaid walk in with two guys-one on each arm. That'd be funny. You definitely don't want to ask someone just for the sake of having someone else. You want people that it would mean something to, and people who are important for you to have in your wedding. Not just a fill-in.

Sigh, I have zero girl friends. They abandoned me when I got divorced (from an abusive cheating sonuva... go figure). So yes, I was worried sick about finding bridesmaids. I said fuck it, and had my brothers up there. I will still love them in 20 years, who knows about girls?

But don't do that. You have 4 great girls, call it a day.

@Ray and Kay that might be a good idea!!!! I'll keep that in mind! Thanks! I really didn't want a fill in, because that honestly would be what it was!! Unless one you lovely ladies who live in Southern Cali would like to be in it??? We're family here!! hahah

Uneven here too. 4 girls, 3 guys including future stepson who is BM. And as many of the 6 "nephews" who want to be ushers (no tux, just nice matching shirts, pants and ties) I have a flower girl in mind, no ring bearer. I will likely ask my other "niece" to be a reader. His niece may end up being guest book attendant, I want to include her but there is more drama than Days of Our Lives in that family. Her mother never even says hi to me.

I originally didn't want a bridal party at all but FH had like 10 million friends that he just had to have, so I ended up asking four of my sorority sisters to stand up there with me. Four is a great number especially when having to order bouquets.

Uneven parties are fine.

For my brother's wedding, my (now-ex) sister-in-law only had three bridesmaids and my brother had four groomsmen. In order to have even sides, since my brother refused to only have three guys, my sister-in-law asked my sister to be a bridesmaid. I felt incredibly left out and hurt, and my mother, sister, and I are still unhappy about it three years later.

Just have your 4 girls. No one will notice or care that you don't have 5.

I have the reversed issue, not enough groomsmen. I have 6 girls in my party and FH can only think of 3 for his....so there will either be 3 lucky men or he's gonna have to think of more people

I'm having the same problem too. Ever girls who I thought we a sure thing are starting to drift from me. So far, I only have my sister and best friend, as well as two Jr. bridesmaids...I'm not planning on officially asking anyone until next year, so I hope to figure it out by then

YES!!! I only have a guy bridesman no girls..

We have an uneven number too. It started out even (6 each) but since we got engaged FH has gotten very close to my sister's husband. He asked if it was ok to include him (which I thought was really nice) and we gained a GM. I'm sure it'll still work out fine!

I have 8. Want some of mine?

Haha yup I'm in the same boat.. I had 5 bridesmaids and he had 8 groomsmen.. now we're down to 3 bridesmaids and 7 groomsmen. I may even be down to 2 by the wedding. It's all family with the exception of one of the bridesmaids. I don't mind having an uneven number though. I'm just going to have the girls walk with 2 guys, and then have the Ringbearer and Flowergirl walk out with their dads (who are groomsmen). I'm not too worried about it (wish I could say the same for my mom…)

I had to find more. I found 3 more. Cousins that I really don't care to be in my party. If I could have it my way, I'd have 4. I have 7

I didn't want them to be uneven, I like the uniform look and I wanted everyone to walk down with a guy.

I ended up having 4 groomsmen/2 bridesmaids and it worked out fine. This is after one of my bridesmaids dropped out 2 weeks before the wedding. People kept asking me if I wanted to use so and so to make the sides more even and I would tell them no. The point of a BP is to have those who are most close to you on your big day. Don't put people in there just to be fillers. They will know they were placed as an afterthought.

I so wish I had that problem. It was either 1 or 5 - FH wanted 5 and I secretly (well maybe not so secretly) wanted to kill him.
