Advice Please!

Hi my beautiful 08 brides,

Ok i have a situation that i dont know how to handle so I figured let me ask the girls, you guys always have the best answers.

I have a really big BP, 8 BM's, 2 MOH, 1 Matron of honor, FH has 8 GM's, 2 Best Men,

How can I include my brother in all of this? He is my only brother and I want him to play a special part of my big day (his son is the RB). Would 3 Best Men be out of the question????
HELP!!!!

TIA!

I would make him a GM and have 2 girls walk with one guy.

I would make him a GM or even a 3rd BM. There is no rule as to how many you can have. The BP doesnt have to be even. He is your brother so I think he should have an important role like that in your wedding. If you dont want to add more people to your BP, maybe give him a special reading to do.

MAKE HIM A GM. Have him walk with a girl and a guy.

Ur BP does not need to be equal.

I'm confused, why can't he just be a groomsmen? You don't have to have a matching # of ppl. I have 5 BMS, 1 MOH. FH has 9 GM and 1Best Man and 1 Jr. Best Man.

Thanks everyone! I was thinking of making him a GM and have him walk with the two Maids of Honors. Would that work??

Then to go into the RH have him walk with the Matron of Honor.

I am having my brother and his wife light my unity candle. since our parents are divorced I want a married couple to light our candle and I thought this would be a great way to honor my brother.

you can also ask him to do a reading.

I definatley think that if you and your brother are so close that you should have him in the bridal party regardless if he is a groomsman, man of honor (lol) or best man especially since you have such a big party to begin with you dont want him to feel left out and you really want him in the bridal party. Go for it!

Can you have him do somethings else? Since FH and i only have brothers - and his are his grromsmen - we're having my brothers do the readings and helpout at the ceremony

If this helps, my two brothers are both GM for FH....his BM is his BIL. Wow, we really do talk in code on here! LOL
