So my MOH decided to pull out of my wedding and Im getting married in 2 and half months!! She payed for the dress and shoes so I wont be able to exchange em..I have like no one else i can think of to replace her...so im going to have an uneven number of bridal party (2 bridesmaids now and 3 groomsmen)..has this happened to anyone before..i wonder if having only 2 bridesmaids and 3 grooms men looks stramge?? My FI doesnt want to take out any of the grromsmen. I have sooo much to do already and this is a major dissapointment!!

Sorry to hear that   But don't worry about having uneven sides.  I had 6 groomsmen, 2 MOH's 0 BM, 2 Jr BM, 3 BridesMEN and 3 FG's and 1 RB...our bridal party was all over the place and I wouldn't have changed it for the world!  It does not have to be even at all.I wouldn't bother trying to replace her last minute and I wouldn't even think about ditching a GM.  Try to enjoy the planning and the people that care about your wedding.  Its your day, don't let anyone ruin it!GL

i've been to alot of weddings, and its almost more rare to see an even number then it is uneven. i wouldnt let the number stress you out. as cheller said, concentrate on the people that care about you.

You don't need to replace her! The sides do not have to be even, honest. No one wants to be a replacement MOH and it's not fair to give one of the groomsmen the boot. You can have the best man walk alone or you can have the bestman accompany one bridemaid while the two groomsmen both accompany your other bridesmaid.

I'm sorry that happened!  but I wouldn't stress and the even number won't look bad at all...like the previous poster said nobody wants to be a last minute MOH. My MOH (my sister) is pregnant and not due until 2 days before my wedding so I may end up with a last minute uneven bridal party number if she can't be there but there is nothing I can do so there is no reason to stressGood Luck

That really stinks, but, honestly, everything will be fine.  Just have one of your BM's walk down the aisle with 2 GMs.  Don't stress about it

An uneven bridal party is not a big deal at all. I started with 7 BMs and 8 GMs and then a friend of mine had to drop out. So from the start we were always uneven. No big deal. While it sucks that she pulled out, I absolutely would not replace her (and definitely DON'T pull a groomsman!!). Not only would it be difficult logistically (i.e. the dress) but I personally think it's tacky to ask someone as a last minute stand in. If someone isn't close enough to you to ask them to be in your wedding from the start, don't ask them last minute. The disappointment should only be because your friend can no longer be there for you as MOH, not because your bridal party is uneven.

Whatever happens don't let one person ruin your day. It's her loss. When she gets married lets see if she comes looking at you to be MOH.

That sucks that this happened to you.  I agree with everyone else's post.  As of right now, i don't have a MOH... period, but we do have a best man.  I just said oh well.  I went to a wedding where the guy wanted all his fraternity line brothers as groomsmen.  He had like 9 guys and the bride only had 3 girls.  So, those numbers weren't even close.  It's hard to match and end up with an even number, but there are so many ways to have your bridal party walk in or out.  Having them walk alone on the way in and out will be a definite way to hide the uneveness.My FMIL has backed out of our wedding.  I'm sure you can imagine how uneven and awkard this is going to be for me.

soooo sorry to hear the drama! no one needs that!! i think the uneven thing is perfectly fine! none of that stuff matters! make the best of it. or if you want to replace her... what about a cousin or family member or a jr. bridesmaid....?  hth

Thanks soo much everyone! I don't think i will ask anyone else..it does seem kind of rude..so i might just have the 2 groomsmen walk out with the one bridesmaidThanks knotties!
