FH and I are planning our destination wedding for next September in Mexico. This is my second marriage (and wedding) and his first. We are not planning to have a BP. *IF* a certain few of our friends and family are able to come is it ok to ask them to stand up for us last minute? I don't want to ask anyone beforehand because I do not want anyone to feel pressured by BP "obligation" to make the trip if they can't afford to. Nor do I want them to plan any outings or parties if they're not able, I don't want to pick out dresses and all the other hoopla. If we just ask last minute does this upset any wedding etiquette I'm not aware of?
Re: Last second bridal party?
The fact of the matter is, Vow Renewals and PPDs should not have wedding parties, whether they're asked to stand up well in advance of the day or last minute. Since I happen to know that your wedding in Mexico is not actually a wedding in Mexico - through my super secret advanced power of reading - that information informs my answer to your question here.
