Are you ditching the traditional wedding party?

Traditional in a way. So far it's uneven. A MOH, best man and one groomsmen. I haven't asked anyone else to be a bridesmaid. Was supposed to be my fiancee's adopted daughter, but she's being a pain since it's not her mom my fiancee is marrying. She's 31 years old, so I don't have time for drama. My guy is over it too

Still deciding, but I did just ask my best friend/'sister' to be my quasi-maid of honor. Quasi because she lives several states away and I don't want to burden her.

There will be at least one guy on my side and one woman on FH's side.

I'm leaning towards flower kids/ring bearers, because we are blessed with "nieces/nephews" (friends' kids), and I'd love to have them included...

It's a balance between having people we love and know want to help, but also not asking TOO much of anyone.

I kinda had a moment where I didn’t really want a bridal party but I ended up deciding to have one. We have an uneven bridal party though. 4 bridesmaids (1 MOH) and 3 groomsmen (1 best man)

Non traditional. We're having my daughter's play the roles of Maiden of Honor and Best "Girl." They will also be the ring bearers and flower girls. Girls will walk ahead of me and do flowers. Oldest will go to my side, youngest will go stand with him. Oldest will be wearing a necklace with his ring that she will hand me. And youngest will have necklace with my ring to hand to him.

I love that you two are incorporating your children

We're generally keeping tradition here, but with only a Matron of Honor and a Best Man. No ring bearer or flower girl because kids are super unpredictable and my anxiety just can't handle it lol. My fiance's dad is his Best Man so that's a little unorthodox too but we love it!

For those who have bridesmen, men of honor, etc., how did you walk them down the aisle? We have two bridesmen but my fiance’s Side is all men so we didn’t want them to have to escort each other.

Ours is mostly traditional! Although I have no MOH (just bridesmaids) and we also don’t have a ring bearer.

Female ring bearer, 4 flower girls, 1 groomsmen, 1 best man, 4 bridesmaids, 1 maid of honor, additional female person I need to title

Ours was semi traditional. I had my cousin and my son and he had his bffs one being a lady

No small and simple

That's awesome! How many guests are you two expecting?

We are shaking things up a bit. No FG or RB or MOH. We will have uneven numbers. Four on my side. 5 on his.

Mostly traditional. BM & MOH. Even sides - I know uneven is becoming really common but I’m very anal retentive and it would just bother me so much. 😂 it would also bother me if my eyeliner was slightly uneven too. 😬😂 And we are having a flower girl. But no ring bearer (we don’t have any young boys we’re close to and the only young girl we’re even close to is the flower girl) and we will likely skip ushers and just have the groomsmen step in for that role.

Pretty traditional - 4 ladies on my side and 4 guys on his side...2 junior bridesmaids, 2 male ushers, and 3 flower girls! I think people will be surprised because I have so many more male friends than female (I'm an engineer) but my FH stole some of them for his side! I feel like it's just one big happy family though since we both had input on who the entire party should be.

Speaking of that... we still need to finish asking our entire bridal party...oops! lol

Ditching the tradition! I am having 2 Maid of Honors and no Bridesmaids. His Best Man is going to be his dad and he is having 1 Groomsmen. We are having 2 flower girls and no ring bearers!

Doing this one

We have an uneven wedding party.

We have a pretty large wedding party. One MOH, and 6 bridesmaids. One Best Man, and 6 groomsmen. Flower girl(because it's our duaghter), no ring bearer, either of us wanted one. If we didn't have a daughter, we wouldn't have a flower girl either lol

Ours will be a little bit of traditional and untraditional....we have groomsmen and bridesmaids but we do not have a ring bearer and all the kids at the wedding (3 girls under 7) will be dressed the same (like flower girls) and will walk down the aisle beforehand to get the groom excited to see me holding fun signs....he doesn't know this yet! LOL
