ok so i think i had made a post about this but for some reason i dont see it on here posted so maybe i didnt and thought i did?? but here it goes again...
i am kind of confused now because i dont know what to do about this.. we originally had 11 bm and 11 gm and now we are short 2 gm now and only have 9 because here is the issue.. we had fh good friend who he grew up with but this year havent been that close and he is getting married this summer and we found out a few days ago that he had his dinner where he announced the bm and gm and of course he was not invited to be one of the gm witch we are very shocked about that because they are good friends and only this year has that friend been a little distant.. so we were shocked to see this and its only understandable that my fh is upset about it and we are no longer having him on our bridal party and it actually is good and worked out because we had our engagement party in september but that couple was unable to make it cause they were away so we havent even told him he was going to be a GM so we are now taking him out of the list and not telling him anything, thats the good part of it that we havent told him anything yet.. so now with all that said i dont know what i am going to do because my friend who was suppose to be his partner no longer has a partner and my cuzin who i just added not too long ago to my bm list cause i felt terrible that her older sister is my bm so i added her as well cause i felt bad and i am close to both of them the same.. so now i have to bm without partners and i dont know what to do and how to do this.. and we are trying to avoid to add 2 guys now just cause we need 2 guys, even though my fh has 2 friends in mind that he can also ask to be gm but i think that isnt worth it and i was wondering if any girls on here have ever done 2 girls with one gm?? i would have 2 pairs of that, 1 gm with 2 bm.. has anyone done this before?? i dunno if this will look a little tacky and not soo good.. please give me ideas and let me know!! =[

Re: BM and GM conflict.. i need some advice! :(
Are you having a maid and matron? If so they can walk by themselves and just pair the other 9 with the gm. If you are not you can definitely pair 2 girls to one guy or the two girls can walk together first or make them last. There are a lot of people who have uneven bp like myself. I actually have 2 more guys tan girls and we decided that the two guys would walk our mothers in since fh father is his best man and since my father is *** my brother is walking me. So it worked out great.

i was at a wedding back in june where each bridesmaid walked down with 2 groomsman. my cousin had an uneven amount of BM and GM too. They had more guys than girls too. I'll try to post the pic.
I was in a wedding once where I had to walk in with 2 guys because it was uneven.

My BP is COMPLETELY uneven I am just having some of them walk 2 girls too one guy! Don't stress over it!
Sorry about FH friend we had it done to us. FH 3 best friends he grew up with 4 of them total had all the other 3 but not him. They all did it so we xed all 3 from our BP!

My brother's wedding had this dilemma. I was originally in the wedding and my bf at the time was too, well we broke up so they were down one, then my SIL stepbrother disappeared so they were down 2 GM. I walked down with anothe BM and 1 GM. It was cute b/c he looked like a pi** with two girls on his arm, then for dances I danced with FH who i had just met a few months earlier. It worked out really well.

Re: BM and GM conflict.. i need some advice! :(
well see i have 2 pairs of MH and BM.. one couple is my sister in law and brother and the other couple is one of fh brother and sister in law... so those 4 are already counted in the 11 bm and 9 gm.. so technically than i have 9 bm and 7 gm!! =/ i am thinking of just having 2 bm walking in with 1 gm than.. you think that wont look tacky??
now i just remembered something... i am even more confused now... i know the bm walk in with their partners but are the best man already standing up in the alter with the groom?? or do they walk in with the maid of honor?? or do the maid of honors walk in alone?? i cant remember now...

Re: BM and GM conflict.. i need some advice! :(
and i know people have done 2 gm and 1 bm and that looks ok and not tacky at all but me i have to do it the other way around and i dunno if that looks weird cause instead it will have to be 1 guy walking in with 2 girls, 1 on each side of him... or someone on here also said i can prolly have those 2 girls who have no partners walk in together?? that doesnt sound soo bad, so i dunno... i just dont want it to stand out and i dunno witch one would make it stand out more, maybe the 2 girls walking in together would make it stand out more?? where the 1 guy walking in 2 girls wouldnt and would look cuter?? ahh the stressful part of planning a wedding, lol!!

We have almost double Gm then BM. I see nothing wrong with it. I am having the girls walk down the aisle by themselves and then when they walk back down the aisle some of the girls will have 2 guys.

I was in a wedding where I walked down with 2 GM, one on either side of me and it was fine. 2 BMs had 2 GM; 2 BMs were 1:1 with the GM. There were 2 MOH who each walked alone. It was fine.
Does that make sense? I think I even confused myself. Ha!

We were short one GM B/C DH kicked a guy out (thank god). We did two girls and one guy and really it was cute! No one realized until the entered at the RH b/c I had each girl walk down by themsleves and people didnt realize at the end of the ceremony! Do the two girls and one guy its fine!

I think that doing 2 and 1is fine....in some cases it is actually really cute. If you are concerned about it, you can always have each of the bridesmaids walk by themselves and have all the groomsmen already be up at the alter.....I was in a BP where we did that.
I wouldn't stress it.....we have 9 GM and 7 BM and we are either doubling up the GM with the BM or having 2 GM walk the little FG and RB down the aisle....we have 6 kids in the BP and 4 of them are under the age of 2....one isn't even walking yet, so I think we may have to do that anyway

Re: BM and GM conflict.. i need some advice! :(
wait why did you have the girls walk down alone?? thats a cute idea, i havent seen that yet.. and the gm were inside waiting already??
the best man is suppose to be at the alter with the groom waiting right?? he doesnt walk down with the maid of honor??
i have 2 best man and 2 maid of honors.. so im guessing the 2 maid of honors will walk down alone and the 2 best man will be up there with the groom waiting??

We did 2 girls with 1 guy and it worked out great. The 3 of them had a lot of fun with it and the pictures are great.
