Attendants

A few weeks back, I posted a statement that said brides should limit the number of attendants that they have....I wanted to clarify that statement.

By limiting, I didn't mean that a bride should not have her dearest and closest friends, what I meant was that some girls come in to their consultation with a list of attendants that is 14 girls long. That list might need to be re-thought.

First of all, the witnesses to your wedding should be the most responsible and patient friends that you have available. These friends are going to help you on the most important day of your life to date. They are charged with keeping you calm, keeping track of all your stuff, making sure that the rings get down the aisle with you, your dress is looking wonderful, your hair is still in place and they are going to do those chores that only truest best friends will do for you.....holding your dress for you when you have to potty before the ceremony....

I'm not saying a large wedding party is inappropriate, I'm just saying that there is only so much space in the bride's dressing room of any facility, there is only so much room at the front of any church. So be reasonable with our attendants. Its also easier on your budget, 14 bridesmaids bouquets are going to cost a lot more than 6 bouquets.

We look forward to hearing from you soon to help you with your special day.
