Good Morning Everyone!
I just recently got engaged to the greatest man and my best friend
. However, this is my second engagement, but still my first wedding. I had been previously engaged to the wrong man. We had everything planned and it was canceled the week before the wedding, how very dramatic, but it's true.
During that planning, I asked my sister to be my maid-of-honor. Three other girls were asked to be my bridesmaids at the time, although I really only wanted to have 2 bridesmaids. There was pressure from the girls, plus my ex-fiance to keep the numbers even.
A lot has happened since then and I guess people grow apart. New boyfriends, new jobs, and other life events cause people to drift apart if they weren't close to begin with. Now that I am planning this wedding, I was just thinking about having my sister as my maid-of-honor, but not having any bridesmaids. I just don't have that many close girlfriends. Is it ok to not have bridesmaids? I read online that a lot of people are doing this to save money and to cut out the unnecessary drama. My fiance is perfectly fine just having two people in our bridal party.
Any thoughts?
