    Just two! One best man/his brother and one best lady/my best friend.

    We never wanted a large party and even if we did it'd be hard to not have so many that it would be half of our 100 guest list.

    Though we have enjoyed being a groomsman and bridesmaid so many time in our lives in sharing time with our friends, we felt that having a small party was the best thing, alleviate a lot of the unnecessary drama and planning, and for everyone to have a great time. We also had our toasts they would have given later on during the ceremony instead of readings.

    They wore navy blue/white and we invited our immediate family and grandparents to also wear navy to be an extended party.

    Me and my fiancé doesn’t have many friends and he doesn’t have much family so we just chose my niece and two nephews and my two little girl cousins to be in our wedding.

    I have 4 bridesmaids, but I'm thinking of adding an additional one. My FH has 10!! gms, so if I add another girl it would even it out just a little bit and I can have each girl walk with a gm on each arm!

    We also have 1 ring bearer and 2 flower girls.
