Traditional or Twist: Wedding Party?

Non traditional! we have a mixed gender "wedding party", but no one will be standing with us. We just want to have a good time with our Sib's and BFF's without all the fuss and obligations.

If i had a male friend i was close with i would make him a BM for sure!

No wedding party for us! It would end up being too many people so we scrapped the idea. I think everyone will be grateful.

Half and half, but like a few posters have already said it was more about who we wanted up there with us, not consciously making a "traditional or twisted" decision. I have a mixed gender party and my FH has all guys. I like to call my said the "Bride Tribe", catchy and non-gender specific!

Definitely a twist in ours! uneven numbers and my fiancé has one of him female friends standing up for him as a groomsmaid

We are going sort of non traditional... We have two MOHs, a bridesman, a bridesmaid, and then two groomsmen and a best man! It's more about the people that make sense to us than the numbers/genders.

We went with no bridal party at all

We went traditional on this one as well. I have our daughter as my MOH and my two best friends are my bridesmaids. On my FH's side - our son is his best man, his cousin is a groomsmen, and his half-brother is also his groomsmen.

Traditional here again but I think its great when its just about the people you want in your life and not about the traditional roles.

We didn't have anything twisted, just traditional and small wedding party of 4 total. 2 MOHs and 2 BM (Best Man).

We went traditional but not on purpose. My best friend is like my sister so she's my MOH and my sister in law is my BM, my FH's best man is his best friend and his GM is my brother

For the most part we were traditional in this - but my Husband did have two Best Men! Couldn't just pick one, they are the three amigos!

We're the farthest thing from traditional in this sense, we've got more groomsmaids than groomsmen, my MOH in a suit, the father of the groom in the wedding party and uneven sides! We love our friends and how they express themselves, and we didn't want to limit ourselves to traditional sides

Traditional. Our siblings and their partners made up our whole wedding party

Traditional, with a MOH BM and our two sons as junior best men!

Traditional. I had three ladies, my husband had three men

Traditional for us - although small! Just my sister as MOH and my BIL as BM

Our wedding party was traditional. I 2 girls on my side and he had 3 guys

He has a best man and I’m going to have my brother as the man of honour small and simple

I have one MOH he will have a BM. Traditional and very small

Only witnesses / MOH + BM and both are friends

If we decided to do a wedding party then it would've been a mix of genders, but in the end we decided to forgo a party all together

Our bridal party is untraditional in the sense that there is none.


I didn't feel it was necessary to have 20% of the guests at our small wedding standing up with us, so we skipped it! To keep our friends involved I've reached out to them with different tasks like emceeing, helping to decorate for the bridal shower, planning some bachelorette party fun etc.

Ours isn’t traditional in the sense that there’s no bridesmaids, only the MoHs. Plus, we’re don’t fit traditional heteronormative roles to begin with

Our bridal party is traditional although it wasn't intentional - I only chose family, who just happen to be girls, and he only chose his brother and 2 closest friends who happen to be guys.
