Asking Fiancé Brother's wife to be in the wedding - weird or no?

Anonymous, on January 11, 2022 at 2:37 PM Posted in Planning 0 10

We are inviting family to be apart of the wedding party. My two brothers and my fiancé 's sister and brother. His brother's wife is still considered family and I have become close to her and her two kids in the last two years dating my future hubby. I wouldn't say we are best friends but have hit it off and she's my favorite family member for sure. Is it weird to ask her to be in the wedding as a bridesmaid?

    If you are close to her and want her to stand by your side on your wedding day, it wouldn't be weird at all to ask her to be a bridesmaid!

    Nope not weird at all! If you’re close to her then have her as a bridesmaid! Especially since they’re married she is definitely part of the family!

    I don't think it's weird since it sounds like you guys have become good friends. If you trust her to be reliable (buying her dress on time, etc.) then go for it.

    I think it's super sweet that you want to ask her, and I'd be touched and flattered if it was me! Definitely not weird!

    In my opinion, among other reasons, It could only be weird if the only reason you’re asking is to have an even amount of bridesmaids and groomsmen.

    If you're close to her and have developed a good relationship with her, then why not? I'm sure she'd be honored and flattered, plus then both she and the brother can help you guys with more stuff. Go for it!

    A bridesmaid is part of your closest innermost social circle, not random people. If you are not BFFs with sister in law then don’t ask her to be a bridesmaid. Don’t ask anyone out of obligation to please others or that you think they might have hurt feelings if you are not super close. That is not the time or place to “get to know” someone.
