I have picked all of my bridal party: my bff/FSL as matron of honor, best friend from college/neighbor now as maid of honor. BMs are: a friend from high school, a friend from college, 2 friends I got close to after college, a new friend in our friend group from home that I see sticking around for the rest of life that feels like family. Then I asked 2 greeters that were two of my best friends from college that I don’t talk to as much anymore but still love wholeheartedly and want them involved.
I know that some people don’t care about even numbers in bridal parties, but this is something that I want to do. That being said I have 1 space left for somebody that I feel close to and have 2 in mind.
I have one friend that spends a lot of time with our friend group that I enjoy being around and could talk to about anything, plus I have a great time with her and know she’d bring me up on the day...but we don’t have as much of a personal relationship because we live far away from each other and always get together with the group. My other friend is a really good friend from work and was my first friend in a new town (that I don’t see us staying in long term.) We are basically the same person, we spend every day together, and I love being around her, but I’m not sure what our friendship looks like after I move away.
They would both be an awesome addition to the bridal party, and I know there’s not a rule book for these kinds of decisions but any advice would be helpful! ❤️
