No bridesmaid or groomsmen?

We're not having a wedding party at all, do what you want!

I think it would be pretty awkward to tell them they are no longer in the wedding party. I also don't think it's fair to limit your fiance's groomsmen just because you don't want bridesmaids. If you don't want bridesmaids, I'd just have an uneven wedding party. I'd also expect anyone who is disinvited from the wedding party to be offended and hurt. Since you have some time before the wedding, I'd just stop discussing stuff with them for now and plan your wedding with you and your fiance. For me, I picked the bridesmaids dress prior to asking them. I sent them the link to the color, length and fabric and they picked their dress from Azazie. I didn't ask for input, I just chose it.

View Quoted Comment My fiancé hasnt asked anyone yet, but he does have a few people he’s considering. I haven’t asked his sister yet, but I’m getting extremely annoyed with my sisters making it about them. Im at the point of not caring if they get offended. I know that sounds harsh but I thought it would be something special for them and special for me but they’ve pretty much ruined it. My best friend will still be MOH no matter what. I’ve sent them a few links (my sisters) and both of them freak out about the price ($149) which I offered to pay but then they nit pick something else. I already know I’d let them be apart of it even though I’ve already asked them too it’s going to ruin my whole experience and cause me way more stress than I need. But I just felt maybe it was weird or out of the ordinary not to have a wedding party.

We're not having a bridal party and we couldn't be happier about it. So it's your call.

I think it would be rude to "un-ask" the ones you have already told to be in it. Honestly, I would just not bring up wedding stuff to them until you need to (like when they need to buy their dresses), and hopefully that calms some of the feelings down. I wouldn't ask anyone you haven't ask until much closer to the wedding (including his groomsmen), so that you don't have to deal with them. The best piece of advice is doing planning with FH, and until things are finalized don't tell anyone about it unless they are financially contributing! This is something I wish that I had known when I started because everyone's opinions about how/where/cost etc. were making me really stressed out! Also as far as dresses are concerned you pick the color and the style and they don't really get a say, but I would suggest picking something that they look and feel good in, so they don't always look your wedding pics and think GEEZE WHAT AN UGLY DRESS! lol

I had my sister only and he had one friend. Worked out great. Not one regret.

No, I don't think it is. Even if they were uneven and your fiance had a few and you had one I think it's totally fine.

If you've asked your wedding party already, there's not much you can do. You can't un-ask them. You could, but it would be incredibly hurtful to them and it could damage relationships. I'd let them express what they want and see if it fits into your vision. You want what you want of course, and you have absolutely every right to feel that way, but many times when someone expresses what they want in a dress it's because that's what they would feel comfortable in and what style looks best on their body type.

I had one person on my side - my sister as my MOH. I listened to what she wanted as far as a dress and helped her look all over for it. Well she went rogue and texted me one day with a picture of a dress that wasn't at all what she was describing (long and sleevless as opposed to knee length and short sleeved) and told me she bought it and that's what she was wearing lol. It was the right color and she was happy so I was happy. Moral of the story is... The BMs want what they want no matter how many you have. 😊

I am only having my daughter as MOH and my FH is only having his son as best man 💖

It's your wedding tell them We changed out minds and we want a smaller party I am dealing with that with my bbf which was the maid of honor she wanted her husband in the wedding which was not my husband's choice and she kept making things about her long story short she got pulled out

My sister is my MOH & my brother in law(MOH husband) is FH Bestman. Not having any more than that. We're not even having a flower girl or ring bearer.

We are not having a wedding party and I think for us it was a great choice. My niece is my flower girl. She’s 12 so sometimes I call her a flower girl, sometimes a junior bridesmaid.

I am having none for this reason! Didn't want to coordinate anything extra or deal with any drama.

I had my sister and he had a friend. It was perfect!!! no drama.

Hi There! Same boat here!

I worded it very politely. I took ownership of it and reassigned them to do readings, and other important tasks.

This way it keeps it smooth. You can politely say that due to some financial budgeting, you need to make some changes. (whatever that may be) Less people=less drama=more of a fun time!

Good luck lady!
