2 Best Men and 1 Maid of Honor?

I have chosen my best friend as my maid of honor. My fiancee couldn't decide between his two cousins for best man and has chosen to have them both be like co-best men.  I think that is fine.  We aren't planning on having any other attendants.  Do you think it will look strange having two men on his side and only one woman on mine? What about having them both walk her back up the aisle after the ceremony, one on each side of her? I kind of think it will be nice, but I wondered what others think. I could add a bridesmaid to my side if I need to, but I don't want to add a co-maid of honor. What would you do?

Why would it look strange?

Why would you add a random girl just to even things out, if she wasn't good enough to make the cut the first time around?

We are doing the opposite...two on my side and one on his.  He thinks it's weird, but I am perfectly fine with it.  I see more & more uneven numbers these days.

I think it will look absolutely fine with 2 best men and 1 maid of honor.  The processional and recessional go by really quickly, and during the ceremony everyone will be looking at you and your fiance anyway so I bet the fact that the wedding party is mis-matched won't even cross your guests' minds. 

At least that's what I'm telling myself, because I have un-even sides and the idea sounded really odd to me at first too!  But since I've had some time to think it over it doesn't feel weird at all anymore.  Hopefully you'll get to the point where you're okay with your mis-matched sides too. 

Good luck!

I think I am going to go ahead and have it the way it is.  I had two other girls in mind of bridesmaids and decided against them just for simplicity and financial reasons.  But I think it will look nice with my MOH walking between the two men.  I have always had a thing about symetry so I wasn't sure at first, but the more I think about it, the more I like the idea.  Thanks for all the advice.
