We both have 7. His female best friend is one of my BM. But thats really it. He doesnt really have female friends or family and i'm gonna ask my a few of my male cousins to be escorts/ushers
We have six bridesmaids and six groomsmen (including MOH & BM). His sister and best female friend are two of the BMs, and my two brothers are two of the GM.

We have a teeny, tiny WP with one attendant on each side, both best men. How's that for small? My best man is my son, who will be 18. His best man is his best friend, whom he has known for over 40 years, who is like his brother.
...still thinking; 3 maids in the party and 3 hostesses (for seating, signing the book and receiving gifts at the church)...but no children unless we have our 2 sons (young teens; the same age)...FI will have 3 ushers and 3 hosts, also.
Re: How many in your WP?
1 Jr. Bridesmaid
6 Groomsmen
1 Jr. Groomsman

The Best Man is a friend of both my FI and myself though my FI knew him longer. He is flying out from Scotland for the wedding.
None of my FI's family will be involved because we dont have a strong relationship and his mom is having surgry around then.

We wanted it to be the people we held closest to us so it's a small wedding party but I can't imagine any of them not being there.
We wanted to keep it small.
I am happy with our decisions

8 guys which includes the Best man
