A Wedding without Bridesmaids or Groomsmen?

[WesnKris]

My sisters and bestfriend are my bridesmaids, but my FI is struggling with gm, is it crazy to have BMs and not GMs.  Should I just cancel having a wedding party.

@loquaciouspunky…. Me too!  Not wedding party for us!   I just want people to come and enjoy themselves without the added pressure/expense.

No bridal party for me and my friends/sister are THRILLED ABOUT IT! they are excited to not have to buy a matching dress and have all the obligations of bridal party. THey have done more for me already anyway to help me with the special day. My best friend from growing up is officiating the ceremony, my sister will give a speech at the wedding and my other two closest friends with do a joint reading during the ceremony. So that is how I am incorporating my family. My dad will walk me down the aisle and we will haev our first dance. My mother and the grooms mother will walk down the aisle during the entrance to be able to get recognized during the special day. It is working out beautifully and when I told some co-workers that were married already they looked and me at said " best idea you could ever have" if I had to do ita gain I wouldn't have had a bridal party!

I'm completley content with my decision.
