~~~QOTD 4/1/12~~~ First one

Good Morning everyone and Happy April Fools Day!!

Thank you Christine for making me this weeks BOTW, I am super excited to be it and to hear from everyone! I hope everyone enjoys my questions.

I apologize in advance if any of the questions have been asked already!

This is going to be a 2 part question.

Here goes nothing:

How big is your bridal party?
How did you go about picking everyone in your bridal party?

Re: ~~~QOTD 4/1/12~~~ First one

My bridal party all together we have 16 people in it.

I have my 3 best friends in it, my cousin as my MOH, my SIL as my MOH (she's married), and my 2 younger cousins who I am very close with and also FH sister.
FH picked my brother and cousin, (since they get along), his uncle (which they are very close and its his Godfather) his Bestman is his best friend that he met at work (kind of like a bromance lol) and then the others are his friends that he has known for a while!

We have 7 people in the bridal party.

Everyone included was a no-brainer...My sister is my MOH, and my two best friends are my BMs. FHs two best friends are his Best Men, my brother and another one of FHs friends are GM.

Our BP has 5 people. My two daughters and my two best friends....FH wanted his father to be best man. It may look a little lopsided but the people in our BP are the closest to us.

Re: ~~~QOTD 4/1/12~~~ First one

I have four and fh I think has 5. I have all sisters in my bp. My sister is my moh and his three sisters are my bridesmaids. I still sometimes want some friends in my party but I know its a financial obligation. So I go back and forth. I figured if I just have family then no one can offended? My fh would probably ask 10 guys if he could. He has his best friend as best man, cousin, brother in law who may not be able to make it because hes in the military, his two close friends. He was concerned of it not being even. I said who cares! Good questions!

I have 12 total. On my side I have my 2 sisters as maid and matron of honor, then two of his sisters and one of my best friends. On his side he has this three best friends and best men (don't ask!) and 4 our four good friends from college as groomsmen. We are going to be lopsided but that's ok my sister (the matron of honor) said she will collect all the extra hot groomsmen and have them all walk her and her daughter (my flowergirl)

I know I'm probably in the minority here. We only have 3....my sister is MOH and my FH's brothers are the BM. We have no bridesmaids or ushers. We both agreed to keep it small, too hard to select certain people, we would want to include everyone! It def keeps things easy on the planning side

Re: ~~~QOTD 4/1/12~~~ First one

Our bridal party has 14 people. We didn't do anything special in terms of asking people, I asked everyone in person or over the phone and he asked everyone in person.

Mine was simple, my sister, two of his sisters, my college best friend and two good friends who are married/engaged to two of FH's GMs.

He asked his 3 oldest friends, his 2 cousins and his 2 BILs.

His nephew is our RB.

Re: ~~~QOTD 4/1/12~~~ First one

my bridal party is small- 3 girls. my sister assumed she was the maid of honor so we never actually discussed it lol. my soon to be sister in law i asked while we were on the car on our way to the beach. nothing fancy bc she was asking a million questions about our wedding and it just came out. my best friend i asked in person when we went out to eat. again nothing fancy but she was super excited!

Re: ~~~QOTD 4/1/12~~~ First one

I have one maid of honor and three bridesmaids. My FH has one best man and five groomsmen.

I had wanted 3 BM total, including my MOH, one to represent three phases of my life: family, high school, and college. But I couldn't pick between two of my friends!

My FH just couldn't pick between his friends, so why not have all. Plus, he has two brothers who will be in the wedding party. :)
