So I have a lot of sisters and close friends, but my FH does not. I didn't want to cut out any of them from my bridal party, but I also didn't want to force him to pick people just for the sake of an even wedding party. So we decided to have an uneven wedding party which we are happy about but now I need advice on some logistics.
I have 8 bridesmaids and have designated my Mom as my "Mother of Honor" (we are close but I didn't want to force her to wear the bridesmaid dress so she got to pick her own). My FH has three groomsmen and a Best Man (4 total all wearing the same outfit).
We are having all the groomsmen/BM then bridesmaids walk down single file; however I don't know what to so about standing during the ceremony. Since the disparity is so large, will it look odd to have 9 people on my side and 4 on his? My coordinator suggested staggering the bridesmaid; has anyone done this?
Other issues: We have an amazing photographer so I am not worried about the wedding party photos (they shot my sister's wedding and she has amazing photos). But if you can identify any other issue you see that may come up and I haven't thought about would also be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance for any help!!!
