Wedding Party

in May 2012 Weddings
Long story but I'll try to make it short. We have 3 BM and 3 GM. We were not sure if one of the GM would be able to make it on the day of our wedding due to work isssues. We decided to have  FI twin cousins get tuxedos just in case the GM couldn't make it. Well as the date get's closer the GM said he will be able to make it. So now we have FI twin cousins who are already spent $130 a piece on tuxedos and we feel bad saying " you are no longer in our wedding". So we were going to have them usher people or pass out programs. Finally, my questions is should we have them sit at the head table cause if we do then it would be uneven. Should they be in the groomsmen pictures or not? I am stressing out about this and I have not idea why. Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks for listening.

    I would ask your FI to talk to them and see what they expect first, and then I would probably do whatever they want, since its minor issues. (Being even numbers really does not matter in the least). I would try and include them if you have asked them to spend hundreds of dollars on attire. I think it would be nice to include them in at least a few of the groomsmen pictures, but I would leave that decision up to your FI.

    Have you thought of not having a head table?  We are not because we don't want to separate any bridal party members from their dates, etc.  We have a very uneven bridal party, so it makes sense - but I never even considered having a head table, it's not my style.  If you are set on having a head table, I'm not really sure what protocol is.  I was a jr. BM at my cousins wedding like 15 year ago and I WAS at the head table - not sure if that helps.  As for everything else, I think you should absolutely include them, at least in some photos, etc. - they went out of their way to get a tux for your wedding and you asked them to be there.  Put yourself in their shoes and think about how you'd feel if it were you.  Then again, guys are different.....did you ask you FI what he thinks?

    Did you ask the twin cousins to be ushers or GM? Whatever you asked them to do, they should still do it regardless of even or uneven sides, that doesn't really matter. We aren't having a head table just because we don't like them. You could still have one with uneven sides, it's no big deal. If you originally asked them to be ushers then yes they would be in wedding photos just as the GM would. Also if they are cousins they would be in photos anyway...
