three bridesmaids and 4 groomsman

Barbara, on November 25, 2016 at 8:20 PM Posted in Etiquette and Advice 0 21

Hey! So i have three bridesmaids including maid of honor and there will be four groomsman. I cant think of anyone else to be in the wedding. Do you think it'll be ok to have 3 bridesmaids and 4 groomsman or not? Honest opinions. Thanks

    That's what I am having because one of my bridesmaids is military and her schedule was switched Smiley sad I don't mind the uneven numbers

    Sides do not have to be even. I have 5 bridesmaids and my fiance has 6.

    I have 5 girls, and he has 6 guys. Totally fine! We might just have one of the groomsmen walk my mom down the aisle.

    Uneven sides are really common. It was persoanlly drive me crazy but it can be worked out fine. You can have two guys with one girl or esort a single family member (if you have any).

    I have 3 and FH has 4. I'm not going to ask someone just to ask someone.

    I think it's personal preference. You don't have to have even sides. But I like the look of it better.

    We have 8 bridesmaids and 9 groomsmen. I'd rather have it look a little awkward to some people ( although I don't think it's weird or awkward) than put someone else in the wedding for the sake of having even numbers

    That is what we had and it was perfectly fine. One of the groomsmen walked my mom into the church.

    Perfectly fine. There are no rules to even sides. I had 7 girls and my husband had 9 guys.

    It is perfectly fine. We planned even numbers and a bridesmaid now can't make it because she is pregnant and we have Zika. As long as you are standing with the people most important to you there are no rules.

    Totally fine to have different numbers. Also, if you've already asked your bridesmaids, it's really rude to ask someone else as an afterthought.

    While you shouldn't really look at your BP as photo props, it still looks good in pictures and no one will hardly notice. We had uneven sides and my younger sister is very independent and was happy to "escort herself" up and down the aisle.

    I was short one girl, my last two Gm walk with her together and it worked out fine. Also numbers don't have to match at all!
