SINGLE LADIES ONLY!!!!!!!!
I didn't know that traditionally, only single ladies are suppose to be in your wedding party.. Only the Matron of Honor is allowed..I have 2 married ladies in mine...
oh well! I never heard of it till a friend told me 2 weeks ago..
Does anyone else have married folks in ur bridal party?

Traditionally everyone is suppose to be single, but I'm having my FSIL as a bridesmaid even though shes married.

Re: SINGLE LADIES ONLY!!!!!!!!
yes-- that is silly..Also, according to tradition, all BMs are supposed to wear the same dress as the bride.. my friends would be pretty pissed if I made them buy my dress!
Bridal party is for anyone close to you- married/single, male/female.

Re: SINGLE LADIES ONLY!!!!!!!!
Only my MOH is single, the rest are married. My feeling is, just do what YOU want.

Re: SINGLE LADIES ONLY!!!!!!!!
That's the stupidest thing!! ALL of my bridesmaids are MARRIED and their husbands are the groomsmen! Only one not married is my MOH who is my sis and her boyfriend of 6 yrs is a groomsman too!

Re: SINGLE LADIES ONLY!!!!!!!!
All the ladies in my BP were married except my maid of honor. Otherwise I would have had no friends in my BP- I was the last one to get married.

Who cares?! It is who you want, not their marital status!
