Not having a Bridal Party?????

Is anyone else not going to have a BP? My FH is very against not having one, but I want one (kinda). If we decide not to have one then I will just have flower girls up with me. I want my friends and family to enjoy my wedding without them going crazy. If I have a BP, I have to add certain people (friends and fam) but then I dont want to end up having 15 people in my BP, I dont want to have to pick and choose, I just want to be fair?? What should I do?? Should I still have MOH's?? Pl Help

You can just have a MOH and flower girls. you don't have to have a big BP

maybe you guys can compromise and limit the amount of people you have ...set a number and stick to it !!

I think if you want one - you should discuss it with each other - not having anything to huge - just 2-3 people that you really want beside you.

Not having a BP is less stressfull. , but I have found out that it can be helpful.

But if you want , you can have a flower girl and MOH .

we are having 3 people each - i'm having my sister as my Maid of Honor , FSIL may be my Matron of Honor and I am having one friend as a bridesmaid........FH does not want a large BP and I was fine with that.

I think it will be less hectic for me when it comes to choosing BM dresses, and BM gifts and hopefully I will be able to afford to treat the girls to hair & make up on the day of the wedding - if I were having a large BP then I def would not be able to afford that!

I would have liked to include 2 other friends but if I did then my female cousins would probably be offended - same thing if I included my cousins - then what about my other friends? So for us it was just easiest to keep it small. FH did not want to deal with the friend/family drama of it on his side either.

Good luck with whatever you decide! You can always just have a MOH and Best Man - we were considering doing that as well!

I def want to have my 2 sisters, cousin and FSIL and really wanted to include 2 of my closest friends but if I add one and not the other it will be drama so best thing is to not add any friends and just do family. Thanks so much. I really have to think about it and do whats right
