3 maids and 7 men

My fiancé has a lot of very very close friends most have been part of the same group of friends since toddler years. So after consolidating his group as best we can he has 7 groomsmen plus our son who will be 3 as best man. I on the other hand have a matron of honor and 2 bridesmaids.

I have no females in my family and neither does my fiancé so there's no family additions and as far as friends I have a very small group and this is it. The girls are married or engaged to the groomsmen, with the exception of 1 girlfriend who I definatly will not have in my party and the rest of the men are single.

7 men vs 3 women is this too drastically unbalanced?

    Not really. I mean, numbers don't matter to me.

    You can do whatever you want - the men can be waiting up at the altar rather than walking up the aisle with the maids. I've seen this done several times. This is about surrounding yourselves with your favorite ladies, don't use any "filler" ladies, because it can just get unpleasant and awkward.

    Yes, it is unbalanced (uneven).  But, that's what will make it work.  I think it is much better to have uneven sides which reflect genuinely close relationships than it is to add so-so friends as filler.

    It sounds like a lot of fun!  Go for it.

    I will probably have the same thing at my wedding! I'm not close to very many girls, and FI has lots of close friends from highschool and growing up. Right now, I have 1 maid of honor and 1 bridesmaid! Although I haven't asked anyone to be a maid of honor or bridesmaid yet.. I'm waiting till it gets a little closer to see if I should add anyone else. I do think it will look uneven, but like others said, I would rather be surrounded by true friends than people I just stuck in my wedding for fillers.
