How to choose wedding party?

A wedding party isn’t a necessity! If you wouldn’t feel comfortable having her stand next to you on your big day and talking to you about wedding plans then I wouldn’t ask her, if you already have trouble communicating with her then trying to coordinate wedding details with her will probably be hard. Not having a bridal party can save a lot of stress

I agree with Grace, the person/people you ask to be in your wedding party should only be people you really want to stand up with you. My FH has a bunch of close friends, and I was really worried he was going to want like 8 groomsmen, leaving either a really unbalanced bridal party or forcing me to ask people I’m not close to just to try to even it out some. He decided on two guys he wanted up there with him, which was perfect because I wanted my cousin(who is more like a sister, we lived together until I was 15 and she was 11) and best friend. My best friend and I don’t always talk a lot, sometimes we go weeks without so much as a text, but we pick up like no time has passed and both understand the other is busy. I don’t know if that’s the kind of relationship you and your best friend have. Another possible option is to ask family (sisters, future-sister-in-laws, cousins), but don’t stress about asking someone or deciding who to ask! Has your FH talked about who, if anyone, he wants to ask?

One of the best things I've ever heard about choosing a wedding party was "If you wouldn't want them in the delivery room with you, you don't want them in your bridal party" and it is kind of true - you don't want people who are going to be dramatic, detract from your attention or try to take the reins. I'd choose people who are close to you, respect you and support your decisions, but aren't afraid to call you out delicately if you're getting derailed. If your best friend fits that description, go for it!

It sounds like u are picking just to have them. If u only feel close to 1-2 people then only have 1-2

I instantly knew who mine would be. My best friend from childhood aand my sons godmother. They are my maid and matron of honor. Then I have 2 jr bridesmaids, both of who are my FHs daughters.

Try thinking about who would it be important for you to have stand beside you during your wedding.
