Ok. I know a marriage is bringing two families together as one, but do you really have to put family members in your wedding party...and this is besides the mother and father of the bride and groom. I feel that you should put who you want in it. I've noticed too many people get touchy over this. So whats the proper etiquette or rules for this?

Your bridesmaids should be your best friends. If your best gal pals are your relatives then more power to ya. Remember, it's Your wedding day so you get to have who you want. Click here to read about the history of the bridal party.

Hmm, interesting history. Now can you find anything on people who feel betrayed when you don't let them be a part of your wedding. Seems like its cut throat for the Wedding guest list and the wedding party. Basically, how do you let them down with a smile?
If we could do it we would have 20 bridesmaids and groomsmen. Most just can't afford that. In my experience the cost of the bridesmaid dress is a good indicator of who will be a part of the wedding and who will not. LOL. Why let anyone down. Add them if they want it so bad. It couldn't hurt. As long as they know who is in charge. Sometimes people in the wedding party feel that gives them some final say in how the wedding is planned. GRIN
I am a dedicated romantic. Oh yeah and a dedicated Trekkie too. LOL. I love this site!
If you are pushed to adding BMs just put their names in a hat and oick the number you want. Have them all around foir the funa dn that way no one is offended. It will just be the luck of the draw. Make sure your MOH is the person you REALLY want. They have lots to do to help you with your big day!

Sea Grape put whoever you want in your wedding! There will always be people that are not pleases with what you do,they will just have to get over it. For my wedding one of my SIL wanted to be my Matron of Honor and asked FH personally. This was way before I started making plans and he told her to ask me. She said heself that I would pick another SIL over her because we were closer. Needless to say I did pick the other SIL and I'm glad I did because SIL#1 is a thick girl who is very cheap and you can be cheap for a wedding if you a heavy sistah,you need something thats gonna last at least til the end of the wedding. SIL
#2 is smaller in size to me and I chose he because we are good friends and she is in a better position to help me with the wedding and buy a good quality dress. She is finacially stable has 4 kids and a husband to help her.SIL #1 on the other had isnt just the opposite.Has 3 kids a husband thats always gone and no job or car. So I would be crazy to ask this lady to buy a $200 dress and I know she really cant afford it,we dont really talk much, she dont drive so she cant run errands for me occasionally.....she was just out of the question.Yes she did get mad at me but she got over it when she saw the brighter picture.
AllieS aren't you just bursting with info!!!!

Yes I do: My two sisters will serve as MOHs, FH's brother will serve as the BM, and one of FH's cousins & one of my cousins will serve as ushers. Simple & straight to the point: Didn't want to choose one friend over the other, and FH doesn't have as many friends/family members willing to partipate b/c of $!
I'm a married woman as of December 2, 2006.
