I have an issus with bridesmaids. My maid of honor is my sister. I have my fiances sister, and his two cousins as bridesmaids. Then i had 6 friends i wanted. Which made 10. However, i started feeling guilty that i didnt include my only female cousin, if i included that would give me 12 girls. And to be honest that wouldnt bothee me but my fiance and will NEVER hear the end of it...ahh what do i do??! Help!!!

Re: bridesmaids
oh man, that's a tough one. When you say you'll never hear the end of it, do you mean about having so many girls in the bridal party? I think if you're ok with having the 12 you should go for it! I'm learning more and more that everyone has an opinion about other people's weddings and what really matters is what makes the bride and groom feel comfortable. Think of it as the more the merrier! I have 9 gals....not quite 12, but it's still a lot

Re: bridesmaids
Well im close with my cousin, but i didnt ask her at first bc she had a lot going on in her personal life and i thought itd be a lot for her. She showed interest..and his two cousins i have bc i am close with them...his one cousin however is on the fence about doing it now because she had a rough year...her brother passed away at 19. Thanks for all the advice.

If you're ok with 12, then go for 12. FH was in a party with 15 on each side (not including the Bride & Groom, flower girls and ring bearer). It was a lot but they made it work.
