I was looking at a pic from your wedding and I saw that you had more BMs than GMs. That's what I'm going to have, too. I'm curious - how did you arrange it when they walked down the aisle?

Re: Jess (jessnsteve aka jteach)
The reason I had more bm's was b/c I had 2 moh's. one matron and one maid so I had both moh's walk with the best man.
It really isnt a big deal at all, I would just double up ine guy or two depending on how many more bm's you have.

Yeah that is def our plan - my FMIL just sort of made a face at it, so I was wondering what else she expects me to do.

Re: Jess (jessnsteve aka jteach)
i had 8 bms plus a jr bm and dh had 11 gm wait actually the day of our wedding 1 gm couldnt make it bc his gfs dad was in the hospital
but we still had more guys than girls...MOH walked alone, best man was at the altar already. I had one gm walk my mom down the aisle since i dont have brothers or some real close male family member. Then we just doubled up 1 couple, well 2 guys one girls...you can do it vice versa, its perfectly fine

Yeah I have 9 BMs and 6 GMs, and the one each MOH and Best Man. So we'd have to double up more than one couple, which is what we are planning to do. I think it's totally fine, FMIL just made this face like 'how weird.' Whatever though!

just ignore her lol. What does she expect you to do? kick somebody out now JUST to have an even number. This is why i dont get why somebody would make comments towards something like this, it is what it is and youre not going to kick ppl out bc of it, so why make a face at something that you are going to do
it looks fine and ive seen it done at other weddings too. More importantly than having an even bp, is having those you care about most by your side

LOL I know - like get a grip on yourself. You're from the 70s - your wedding had a picture of you like overlayed into a brandy glass and you think my wedding is weird?

OMG I know. I hope one day I can get a few pics of their wedding scanned - you would DIE if you saw the BM dresses. They look like overall dresses - they are like dresses with overall straps and underneath is a long sleeved blouse. And they are hot orange and brown with flowers. And the BMs wore hats. AWESOME. That is one thing I attempted for the wedding - I tried to do stuff that was timeless more so than trendy, so that I don't have to look back later and go omg what was I thinking!
