I live in Louisiana I want to have a small wedding with 30 people or less and than a big barn glam wedding with everyone a day or two later two weddings so me and hubby can have both what we want without compromising and it’s in budget I picked out purple bridesmaids dresses for the big wedding that I paid for I have 12 bridesmaids and each bridesmaids have a different dress in that color from short to long my only requirement was have it in that color and a lace top I am wearing white that day for the small wedding I have a colored wedding dress I was thinking about having my bridesmaids in white or black for the small wedding am I wrong for having two weddings or a two day theme wedding
and 2 question should I have I’m bridesmaids pay for the small wedding bridesmaids dress since I paid for the big wedding bridesmaids dress the bridesmaid dress budget is under 110

I don't understand why have 2 weddings 2 days apart. Won't guests not invited to both feel slighted?

This was my thought. Is the first wedding just immediate family and the second is more a celebration of marriage with a big reception?

For your question on bridesmaids dress, yes, I would pay for the second dress for the girls you are having in both weddings. It's a big expense to buy one bridesmaid dress and asking your girls to buy two feels like too much.

I hope not or mad one is for immediate family and more on the religious side and the other is for everyone and not that religious

If you’re doing two weddings (ceremony + reception), I’d skip having a bridal party for the immediate family-only one. In fact, unless the BMs really want to go, maybe not invite them to the family-only one (as a BM I would NOT be happy being part of two events in one weekend, the wedding day is already so busy for a BM!).

For me, I am with future husband will look at a JP wedding ceremony for us, to make our relationship legit and a larger church wedding at a later date.
