Hello! Well, my fiancee and I have determined that we're having 3 groomsmen and 3 bridesmaids for our wedding - I want the numbers to match when we're standing up there.
However, I have several friends who want to help and that I want involved. I originally was going to have 2 attendants - Friend 1 is an old buddy from HS, and Friend 2 has volunteered to be my go-to for decorating help, etc and would be somewhat of a wedding coordinator (she's also doing our cake). I have another, newer friend (her hubby is one of the groomsmen) who will be there and who I have grown very close to in the past few months. She'll be around for everything because of her hubby, and has really been a help to me - I'd like to honor her as well.
Would it be ridiculous for me to have 3 bridesmaids and 3 attendants - and have the attendants do my readings during the ceremony? In all reality, I would love for friends 2 and 3 to be bridesmaids (and that seems to be more of the role they're taking on voluntarily), but my fiancee doesn't want any other groomsmen.
Thoughts are welcome, as well as other title suggestions! Special Assistant? Bride Wrangler? I've seen the title "honorary bridesmaids" somewhere also, I didn't know if those would apply?
