One of my BMs just bowed out...

I talked to one of my good friends this morning, and she has bowed out of my BP. She and her husband are going to try to have another baby in a couple of months, and chances are that my friend will be pregnant for my wedding. She felt it was best to bow out now rather than waiting to see when she got pregnant. She still wants to help me out in any way, though...planning the bridal shower and bachelorette party, helping with favors, all that stuff.

I'm a little sad, but knowing that she still wants to support me and help me to plan my wedding means more to me than anything else. FH and I are going to make her a guest of honor at the wedding, and I'm thinking about asking her to do a reading. She is such a great friend.

But now we've got one more GM in our BP than we have BMs! Does anyone else have an uneven number in their BP? I can't decide if I should ask someone else to be a BM (I do have someone in mind) or just leave the BP the way it is.

Sorry your BM bowed out, but atleast she still wants to be part of your day! Thats great!
Right now our BP is even, but FH is looking to add ANOTHER GM to the mix... and they say brides are bad news?! Where is the show 'Groomzilla!'
Im not too worried about it though.. we'll just have a group of three (two girls one boy).. unless he can think of another girl too!

I had a similar situation happen to me. I know it can be rough at first but remember, things always fall into place in the end. I wouldnt worry too much about the uneven amount of BP attendants.. my BP is uneven(my FI has 2 best men).. things like that should be the least of your worries. No matter what, your going to have a beautiful wedding.

I agree! If they had that show, I think FH would be the star. He's worse than me sometimes! He came to me the other day and said, 'I have two more guys I want to add to the BP.' I had to put my foot down. If it were up to him, practially every guy at the wedding would be in the BP!!

I am sorry your BM bowed out but I think she did the right thing...If she feels like she might be preggo, it might be too much stress!

But take her up on her offer to help you still plan! That is the best part of being a part of a wedding!

We are uneven in with groomsmen & Girls...I am doing 2 guys to every girl with exception to my MOH & Best Man...Plus my brother & SIL will be walking my FG down the aisle
