To many in the bridal party!

My FH can't decide between his friends who should be in the wedding party. He has six friends and his brother. Also he is close to his cousins but, is not having them. He has one friend he has been friends with since elementary school but, hardly hangs out with him. I want a small wedding party about five on both sides. Is anyone else having this problem.

I would limit to the people who are near and dear to you if you want to put a limit on it.

I also want five on each side, but i'm winding up with 5 on mine, and 6 on his. He has 4 close friends, and then my two brothers.

I'm just gonna have my two brothers walk my little sister down i think...

I have a lot of people I am close with and so does my fh. I didn't feel that there was any good reason to leave the people that I love out of my wedding party. SO we have 10 on each side.

Re: To many in the bridal party!

I had the opposite problem-I had more people and FH just wanted something very small. He had to ask 1 more person that he wasnt really close with to make it even. It is a really tough decision- I have a big family and a big group of friends. You dont want to hurt peoples feelings, but it is inevitable sometimes. But in the end, people will understand and it will be fine
