I met this friend a year ago on a job and we got really close around six months ago. We'll occasionally work on jobs together (commercial shoots), but have seen each almost every other week outside of work. We're going to music festivals together and even planned (somewhat jokingly, but also somewhat seriously) when to have babies so they could be friends. I feel like we're close enough that I'd really like to ask her to be a bridesmaid, but I don't know if it's weird to ask.
I have four bridesmaids chosen already and I was originally going to ask an old family friend who I was very close to while growing up to be my fifth, but I haven't seen or talked to her in awhile. We hung out in high school and had moments when we would do things all the time like writing songs together and making short films, but we have drifted apart quite a bit since I left for college 7+ years ago. I recently moved back closer to where she lives (an hr away) and made an effort to hang out but she had been busy and we haven't made plans since.
I feel much much closer to my new friend over my old family friend. Honestly, it would feel a little weird to ask either of them, but I at least see and talk to my new friend all the time and would be more comfortable with her at pre-wedding gatherings/get togethers. We really clicked and I see this friendship lasting a very very long time, but I also realize that this is still a new relationship. Thoughts?
