Re: BP question...... so many today lol
lol another questiona bout BP today??!! geesh I posted a response in the other thread...But just think of how close you are to the two older ones, and any other ways you can incorporate them into the wedding. An example of that is one of my two best friends is a guy, FH will NOT have him in our bridal party under any circumstances (stupid macho boys...) so i am going to ask him to do a reading at the church or something like that to involve him and make me feel better about having someone i am super close with being part of my special day.

Re: BP question...... so many today lol
Think long and hard about it Kimmiepie before u make any decisions because I started off wanting a big bridal party (1 moh, 7 bm, 1 jbm, 2 fg). When I realized how much that would drive up the cost for florist, limos,and attendant gifts, I damn near freaked out. It's so hard because you want to accomodate everyone and not make anyone feel excluded, but you have to think about if you can financially have a BP that big. Not to mention that the more people = more opinions.
I think big BP's look so nice in pictures and if u have the patience and the funds to do it then I fully encourage it. If not, you have to do some serious brainstorming about how to incorporate everyone into your big day w/o them necessarily being in the BP.

Re: BP question...... so many today lol
I have a similar problem with cousins. I have only 1 female cousin who I am close to, and the rest are all males. I can't have all of them in the bridal part, because FH has his own GMs. So, I am having 1 male cousin who is like another brother to me. And I was planning on having my other male cousins do readings or be ushers. Its so hard because FH and I have ALOT of cousins and close friends. If one gets excluded, we're done for!

Re: BP question...... so many today lol
my mom told me I have to put my sister in my bp bc she's my only sister and We barly even talk to eachother. I was asked to be in hers but then she eloped and left me to pay for a $350 bm dress and a broken heart. I really dont want her in it. She wont come to my bach. party bc she's not allowed to drink as per her hubby. I duno its an odd situation. and as for my cousins the olders ones are twins in theyre 30's (nothing wrong with that). I do want them in i just didnt want such a big bp. Any theyve never been in a wedding as a bm and might not ever so my mom said its a must
