Wedding party

It's your wedding. Do you, boo!

Nope not rude. One of my friends has 3 sisters and tons and tons of GF's. She chose her 3 sisters and her groom had his 3 brothers.

Not at all! It’s YOUR big day. People will always have their opinions, annoyingly enough lol. It doesn’t make your wedding or your marriage any less special if you don’t have a wedding party

Not rude at all! Honestly I would've preferred not to have a bridal party just to avoid the drama of it all (and then I could just invite my friends to get ready with me the morning of) but my husband was adamant about having his friends be part of our ceremony. I know it meant a lot to him so we agreed to have a small bridal party (we had 4 each... he originally wanted 8, then realized how difficult that would be to manage...) But even with that there were issues, like my husband still has some guilt about one friend that he didn't have part of it who he wished he added, and on my end I have a couple friends who have said things to me about how "of course" I'll be in their bridal parties when they get married (but they weren't in mine) and it's just awkward, etc...

Like I said, I would've been happy to skip the whole thing haha, I just did it for my husband If neither of you want it then don't do it!

It's unnecessary, so don't feel bad. It's 100% what makes sense for you and your wedding- it's about you, not everyone else.

I am considering the same - or maybe even doing an 'I Do!' crew.. where they get ready with you, and make your day more special but aren't standing up with you. Another bride on another discussion post made a good point saying that she ended up not having anyone do a shower or a bachelorette party for her because she didn't have a bridal party. I

It is not rude at all. It's your preference. One of my friends did not have a bridal party for her wedding and it was beautiful. Plus it was drama-free and cheaper because you don't have to worry about anyone getting upset because you didn't pick them and you save on the makeup if you chose to gift it to them.

It's YOUR wedding, do what you feel comfortable with. I originally only wanted 1 MOH and 1 Best Man.

...I ended with up 4 girls on my side and 3 guys on FHs side. Haha. Sometimes you gotta roll with the punches.
