    His brother and bff are Best Men. Then my brother and a few friends are his men.
    We are pretty balanced

    My FH is an only child so all his party are very close friends he grew up with (we are all actually very close so they are pretty much family). My bridal party consists of a mutual friend of FH and I because we have gotten so close during FH and I's relationship, my best friend from college, My bestfriend since birth (our parents have been friends for 30 + years so we grew up together like siblings), another good friend of mine and one of my sisters. I originally had two of my sisters in my bridal party but unfortunately one of my sisters passed away in January and my other 2 sisters are just much older than me and while we have grown closer due to losing one of our sisters I t just seemed silly adding them because they were family (I wasn't in their wedding). Our ring bearer is our son and we don't have a flower girl.

    Friends are majority!

    My sister, FH's Sister, and one of FH's Brothers is in our wedding party. I have 7 ladies in total, and FH has 8 or 9 GMs ( I'm not sure anymore- He didn't ask them all right away so there may be stragglers. Originally he had 10 to ask, but couldn't get ahold of one and I don't think he's asked another, so he as at least 8)

    All friends, actually. I would have liked my sister to be part of it but we kind of grew apart a little since I left for the military. We still talk every once in awhile so she's definitely still invited.

    MOH: My best friend and baby momma (Mother of our 3 god daughters.)
    BMs: My little sister, and two close friends who happen to be the wives of two groomsmen.

    Best Man: FH’s best friend (Basically brother.)
    GMs: 3 are husbands of two BMs and the MOH, and then my childhood best friend is also a groomsmen.

    and then our god daughters (9, 4, and 3,) will be our junior bridesmaid and flower girls.

    My bridesmaids are all friends and his Groomsmen are split evenly between friends and family. Our flower girl is my niece so it's safe to say most of the wedding party will be friends.
