I think the point of the bridal party should be the people who have and will support you and strengthen you in your relationship and your life. If you somehow have more than a few friends who do that, you can narrow it down by the day, but who really has more than 8 truly close friends? I think more than 5 is too many (I’ll have 3), but I appreciate my two friends who did have 8, because it meant I got included 😂
I feel so stuck on this particular part of wedding planning. All of my close friends live internationally and we don't have the budget to help them travel for our wedding nor do we expect them to spend a lot of money just for one day. I'm not close with my fiance's sisters or his brother's girlfriends... Whereas, my fiance has already decided he'd like his brother to be best man and his friend as a groomsman. I feel like if I ask my fiance's sister/s and his brothers girlfriend to be my bridesmaids, I will regret it because we're not close. I'm not close with any of my female cousins either. So tricky! Edit: I'm an only child, too.
You don’t have to have bridesmaids at all! You can just invite certain people who can make it to each event (bridal shower, bachelorette party, wedding etc). You can even select some people to get ready with you on the day of if you want! But you don’t have to select “bridesmaids” if you it doesn’t work for you!
I am not engaged yet but I keep coming back to thinking about the bridal party and just feel super unsure about what I want at all, started to think I'd rather skip it entirely, but now with my partner I've been dating for 6 months who never imagined much of a wedding at all for herself (we're both women) i just. I wonder how important it's gonna be to her that her sister be her maid of honor and therefore I need to have a wedding party of some kind too kind of thing. It's also so awkward that i have such a strained relationship with my only sibling, my brother, but it would be like a weird statement for my partner to include her siblings and me to exclude mine...
Great video!! I went super simple with my ask. I got them all a beautiful, girly, glittery card asking them to be my bridesmaid and saying why I want them apart of my day. In the card I included paint swatches of the wedding day colors so they could have them to use to get accessories that match.
My friend Megan and I are talking about having a double wedding together, And one of main problems, is combing a wedding party together. And were not sure, if we should have two ceremony's or not and one big receptions. Or is it possible to combine two bridal party's together, And we are not sure of how, to go about this.
I would lean toward 2 ceremonies and one big reception! That way the ceremonies can be personalized to each of you and the people who don’t know the other couple don’t have to attend both.

I asked them individually at different times, mostly because we all live far apart, but I also feel like that made it meaningful as well.

As always, I love the video!! Keep up the amazing work👏🏽🧡🧡
If I remember, most of the time but not always a Bridesmaid would usually hold her Flowers in her hands.
