How many bridesmaids should you have?

Emilie, on November 1, 2016 at 07:05 Posted in Plan a wedding 0 7

Hi wonderful brides Smiley heart

The average wedding party size is 8: 4 bridesmaids and 4 groomsmen, but you can definitely have as many as you want!

Look up you number of guests and see how many bridesmaids you should have!

50-60 guests to your wedding

Try to keep your number of bridesmaids around 4... but you can always make exceptions! Smiley winking

70-100 guests to your wedding

You can definitely have more than 4 bridesmaids, maybe even 5-6... Who is it going to be?

100-140 guests to your wedding

Wow! Now that's starting to make quite a bit of people, I'm sure your best friends will be more than happy to help. How about choosing 8-10 of your closest friends to spend this memorable day with?

150+ guests to your wedding

You can have as many as you want!! Maybe not all of your guests, you still want to stay reasonable but you could definitely go up to 12!

    We have 6 in total. My MOH and two bridesmaids and his Best Man and Two groomsman.
    Because we are having a small amount of people we had to keep it small.

    I have 3 bridesmaids and my maid of honour so 4 in my bridal party. My fiance has his best man and one groomsman. I don't understand people who have 12 bridesmaids stand beside them. I think that is too many people and would be extremely stressful.

    We are going for four people each which includes our best man and maid of honor. I think, personally, that too many people in a bridal party can also be too much and can also be a lot manage with different personalities.

    Looks like we're right on par with the average! We're have 8 (4 BM and 4 GM). I didn't need to make an exception for my best friend, she's MOH
