That sounds so fun! I can't wait until it's closer to my wedding and we can all do things together as a group like shop & bach party. I'm really looking forward to getting ready the morning of the wedding with all of them

BM 3 is my best friend from college and former roommate.

BM 4 is my little cousin that I lived with growing up. She is like a sister.

BM 5 is another cousin that was probably my first best friend. We are the same age.

My 7th attendant will actually be bridesman. He is my younger cousin, brother of BM 4, that is also very much like a younger brother to me. He will escort the two flower girls down the aisle.

My FH will have his 12 year old son as his Best Man #1 who will enter and stand with him.

My FH Best Man #2 will be his younger brother and lifelong best friend.

Groomsmen 3 - 6 will be long-time very close friends of my FH.

I love that you are still able to have your MOH present even though she will physically be far away. That's incredible, and it's so wonderful of you to still honor her in that way.

We live in Florida. So everyone is pretty scattered.

My Maid of Honor was my friend who I've known since 1st grade and who convinced me to set up an OkCupid account which is where H and I met. Of my friends she's the one who feels the most like a friend to both me and H so that's why I picked her for the role.

Three of my bridesmaids were friends from school (elementary - high school) and the friends I've kept in touch with the most. Then SIL was also a bridesmaid.
