Matching number bridal party

I have four girls including my MOH and FI has thress men including best man.
I have read that it's okay if you don'thave matching munbers but how will I make that work? I don't want anyone to feel left out or anything.

Re: Matching number bridal party

  • Why will anyone feel left out?  For your processional, you have your attendants walk solo down the aisle preceding you.

    For the recessional, one lucky GM gets to escort two beautiful women, OR you have your attendants do a weave out:  woman/man/woman/man/woman/man/woman.  Voila.  Problem solved.

    And if you're thinking of a WP dance, just skip that altogether.  You don't need it.  Your WP won't want to do one~it's excruciating for them, and your guests will be delighted not to have to stand and watch a very awkward dance.  Done and done.

  • My H had 5 GM and I had 3 BM's.  So, for the processional, the guys walked down 2 by 2, then my H and the pastor.  The girls came out one by one, then me and my grandfather.  For the recessional, it was me/H, MOH/BestM, BM/GM, BM/GM, 2GM's and pastor.

    We have 5 girls and 1 guy on my side, 4 guys and 1 girl on his.  We'll sort out the processional and recessional at the rehearsal.  It's a very short walk, it's not that big a deal.  And really, that's the only point in the entire event at which uneven numbers presents a logistical complication.

    Sometimes I feel like people think that brides are delicate little flower princesses who get all dressed up and pretty for one special moment of their dreams, when really they're just normal people who just happen to be getting married. Things shouldn't have to be sugar-coated for grown-ass women. -mstar284
  • We have 4 BM's and 4 GM's.  We will have each of them walk alone during the ceremony, and for the announcement of the bridal party.

  • We have one extra bridesmaid. We aren't doing a bridal party dance and we are going to have one groomsmen be announced with two bridesmaids.

    He has the personality for it, so it should be big fun!
