861. Bridesmen??

     

     Discussion by Amanda1443994 · September 2011 · Home› Wedding Month Club Boards› July 2012 Weddings

     Hey Ladies! I am fairly new to TheKnot so I apologize if this has already been discussed. Does anyone have any ideas for honoring male friends of the bride? I have four guys friends who are my best friends. I've known them since I was 8 and they are like brothers to me--they're even closer to me than my bridesmaids. I…

     Whatever you do, don't get another bridesmaid. The "role" shouldn't be cast like parts in a show. If your friend is able to attend the wedding and go up and down the aisle with you, I'd have a place available where she can sit during the ceremony. I like @PrettyGirlLost's idea of letting the whole WP sit, not just her-when…

     My brother got married in October of 2009. I've been quite close with my sister in-law since before the wedding, so I was excited to ask her to be one of my bridesmaids (see where this is going?). She called me this past Saturday to tell me that she and my brother are divorcing. They called my parents on Sunday, but didn't…

     Their wedding turned out beautiful even though it was pouring rain out. Good thing the ceremony and reception were already planned indoors. It was held at the Trump National Golf Club in my hometown of Palos Verdes (LA area) I had a blast being a bridesmaid and found it extra emotional walking down the aisle as I know the…

     I say pick as many people as you want to, although I am used to large wedding parties. My sister-in-law had 9 bridesmaids, and I was originally going to have 10, but now have 8 (one had to step down since she will be in med school, and one had cancer and is no longer with us). So now we will be uneven, since FI is still…

866. Honorary Bridesmaids

     

     Discussion by medin80 · June 2013 · Home› Wedding Discussion Boards› Wedding Party

     Okay...so I actually was thinking about doing this. Then saw many posts on this site regarding an honorary bridesmaid, and thought that this might really work for me. I haven't found any post where the bride is in a similar situation to me, so here's my idea. My matron of honor recently "defriended" me, and said that she…

867. Bridesmaid Trouble

     

     Discussion by Laura3086 · August 2010 · Home› Wedding Discussion Boards› Moms and Maids

     Okay here is my dilema, I recently asked some of my family and friends if they would be my bridesmaid. The majority of my bridesmaids are familly though because my fiance's family is divorced and both remarried, so the step children are all standing up too. Due to this, I thought it would be polite to ask my fiances only…

     My brother is getting married next Saturday. I was one of 3 personal attendants until I politely bowed out when I found out I was expected to carry the bridesmaids (5 of them) crap around all day. No thanks.The bride-to-be had a "close" conversation with my SIL (DH's sister) this past January. Now SIL is the guest book…

     Discussion by lfritos · October 2009 · Home› Wedding Discussion Boards› Wedding Party

     I have a large wedding pary (6 on each side) including my sisters, my brother, fi's sister, and a few close friends. Including family is important. I am very close with my cousins, they are practically siblings. I want to include the male cousins as ushers, but I have one female cousin that is 13 years old, and I can't…

     Discussion by Erikalovespeter · May 2014 · Home› Wedding Discussion Boards› Wedding Customs & Traditions Forum

     So my mom is very supportive of our decision to go away by ourselves to get married, as is my twin brother and very close girlfriends. However I know that my mom wants to be "acknowledged" at the party (even though she doesn't say so) and I would like to do something non cheesy for my close girlfriends (friendships that…
