Your wedding party should make your day better — not harder.
When you’re choosing bridesmaids and groomsmen, don’t just think about who “should” be included. Think about who will actually stand beside you with joy, support, and respect.
Here are a few things to keep in mind:
💍 Choose people you have a strong, drama-free relationship with. You don’t need their drama distracting you or causing you unneeded stress.
💍 Pick those who are genuinely happy for you AND your fiancé. If they don’t agree or support your relationship then they definitely don’t need to be in the wedding party.
💍 Make sure they’ll respect your vendors — a good wedding party knows how important your photographer, coordinator, and venue team are. And be KIND!
💍 Reliability matters more than titles. Worried that person will back out closer to the wedding? Maybe just don’t ask them to begin with, remember quality over quantity
At the end of the day, your wedding party should feel like a blessing, not a burden. Choose those who fit into how you want your wedding events and wedding day to go!
