How many brides are asking their soon to be sister-in-law to be a bridesmaid?

Welcome to the board Angel,

That is a good question! :mrgreen:

I'm not, but that is because we have very different views on things pertaining to my FH and my relationship. So, putting it nicely, we don't get along. FH is have my brothers in his party and they are his soon to be brothers-in-law. I was in my other brothers and sister-in-law's wedding though. I think it is nice to include family in it.

I am not having my sister-in-law in the wedding either. I really did not think about asking her, but I really do not think that she is the type to dress really formal. My wedding is going to be at The Homestead in VA. Were you are not allowed to wear jean, shorts, or really causal attire. Though, I agree with Jade, family is great to include in your wedding.

I am having maid of honor my friend Courtney, and one bridesmaid my oldest cousin (14) as a bridesmaid.

I am having my future sister in law as a bridesmaid, but she is one of my friends and we get along really well.

Since our wedding will be small, about 50 people, at the moment I'm only planning to have two BM. One will be my sister, who doesn't want to be the MoH b/c she's really shy and busy with her own life. The other will be FH's sister, who is one of my best friends and will be MoH.

I am not having my to be sister-in-law as one of my brides maids. I haven't decided yet who I am going to have but most likely not her.

[Sal0612]

Okay, so my guest list has grown to 70 people now. But that's all that our site can handle, so somehow I have to keep it at this size.

I don't think my MoH realizes that my wedding day is my day to shine and not hers...she's very critical about the dresses that I pick out for her and expects me to pick one that will make her look super hot. I've told her that I won't make her wear something ugly, but this is getting ridiculous. And it's not like she doesn't already have a serious boyfriend...and most of the guys invited to the wedding are taken anyway. :roll:

My wedding is going to be a destination wedding in Scotland so our wedding guest list is only about 6 (If that) My best friend is going to be my MOH and the only bridesmaid. I have to have at least one person to help keep me sane during the day that knows me really well. I have a wedding coordinator but she doesnt know me like Timber does.

Feather,

I have heard of people talk about renting a castle in Europe and getting married there with close friends and family. And this is the type of wedding you are having. If I knew about being able to rent a small castle and having close friends and family only and is as affordable as I have hear, I would have had a very hard time choosing the way my wedding would be know to and small wedding in a castle in Europe.

Will it be very weird if the # of bridesmaids doesn't match the # of groomsmen?

[Am3na]

I have been to a lot of wedding were there are 1 extra bridemaid then groomsmen. It does not look weird if they are not walking down the aisle together. Because then you would have one bridesmaid that would walk down by herself. Other than that formals are not balanced.

Currently, I have 2 bridesmaids (MoH included) and my fiance has 5 groomsmen. Aside from my bridesmaids, most of my close friends are the groomsmen. I'm considering asking the groomsmen's girlfriends to be my remaining 3 bridesmaids. I'm not that close with them, but we get along. Thoughts?

My fiance's sister is my maid of honor. She and I became fast friends soon after I met her. She was thrilled when I asked her,as was my fiance. Not only does she gettobe a partof her brothers big day, but she also gets to become even closer friends with me. :)
