    Mostly friends. But it’s almost a 50/50 split

    My MOH is my cousin, we're the same age and have been best friends all our lives. We agreed at 7 that we'd be each other's MOHs because we were arguing over who got to be our older cousin's flower girl (it was neither of us LOL).
    And my niece (18), who's like a little sister, will be a bridesmaid.
    I'm not very social.
    My FH's best man is a split duty between two of his three best friends, while the remaining best friend will be our officiant.

    Matron of Honor is a friend. I don't think I could ask my family to be in my bridal party...unfortunately too stressful.

    My wedding party is family, my cousin's been my best friend forever so she's my maid of honor and my sisters are my bridesmaids, my fiancé choose his best friend who's basically like a brother to him and his brother and he might ask my brother he hasn't decided between him and a friend because that friend might be our officiant!

    It is a mix

    BM no 1/MoH is my best friend from kindergarten, we've been through kindergarten, elementary ,middle and high school together, so she gets the place of honor. I think that was decided when we were 10 lol.

    BM no 2 is my little sister.

    BM no 3 is my favorite cousin whose been like a sister to me.

    BM no 4 is a close friend from high school

    BM no 5 is another close friend from high school, in the same friendship group as BM no 4 and my MoH

    BM no 6 is my closest friend from college.

    BM no 7 is another close friend from college.


    My 2 junior bridesmaids are my older nieces, and my flower girls are my younger nieces.
