We started out with 7 bridesmaids and 6 groomsmen, but it is now down to 6 and 6. Here is the breakdown:

1 Maid of Honor
1 Matron of Honor
4 Bridesmaids

2 Best Men
4 Groomsmen

1 Flower Girl
1 Ring Bearer.


It does seem like a decent sized wedding party. I would have liked less, but we couldnt leave any of these folks out.

Looks like we have a lot in common. I too love Ebay and I saw your dress and it was one my list of choices but then I saw another dressy that was even cheaper and it was Ivory and Gold. I love the dress. It is actually a prom dress. I want to post the picture by my noisy FH might look and I want him to be surprised.

You're almost there!!!!! Are you excited? I'm excited for you!!!

Ronni
04-21-2004, 12:01 PM
Yes, I am very excited now. Originally, I was very unenthused about the whole wedding thing. I wanted to just run off to an island and get married, but he convinced me to include our family and friends. I moped about it for about a month, but now, I'm really excited.

Thank you so much for your words of kindness and support, Raine.

I peeked at your website. How is your planning going? How has it been coordinating a bridal party that size?

Raine
04-21-2004, 12:11 PM
I'm glad you finally got excited! This is a very exciting time.

Thanks for checking out my website!! Everything is going so well... thanks for asking. I'm almost done. Just paying for things now. I thought coordinating this wedding would be a nightmare, but it hasn't been. It's actually been a lot of fun!! I have a GREAT group of women in my wedding. I think what helped me is that I started very early and I knew pretty much what wanted. I listened to complaints from other bridesmaids and didn't want that to happen with me. First, I wanted them to wear something and look good!!! Also something that they can wear again! That is the biggest complaint I hear.. (alll this money for one day...blah blah blah)

Our meetings are fun. We meet for drinks and just talk about things. We're already used to having slumber parties & things like that so I just combined those things into helping me plan the wedding.

Are you finished everything?

Raine

04-21-2004, 10:49 PM
Sounds like you have lots of fun with your bridesmaids. My group of girls are fun like that too. Its good your girls are so excited; you're so close. I can't wait. It seems like next year will never come. I am over excited.

Very close knit wedding party. We wanted to keep it more meaningful by having our wedding party consist of people who really care about us. We didn't want to ask people just to take up space. Besides less people usually means less drama!!

How did you work with a "lop-sided" party? Did the BM's and GM's walk together or separately?

What's the purpose of a hostess again? I know I've asked this sometime before but I can't remember. I don't want to need one and I don't have one yet. Also, if my church provides ushers that will hand out programs and show people where to sit, do I still need to assign ushers to walk people like my mom and Marlon's grandmother, down the aisle or can they walk on their own.

Name Twin, hostesses are used for various purposes. I'm using mine to hand out programs, watch over the guest book, help set up the sanctuary and the reception site, direct people, and pin flowers/corsages on family members.

Thanks Name Twin. I think I may need to find 2 hostesses then! I need someone to watch over the photo guest book and instruct people on what to do.

At first it was:

2 Matrons of honor
1 Best Man

Yesterday, I asked my husband to add somone to his side of the party because I wanted to ask my sister to be a bridesmaid. He gives me three more names. :hairshock :hairshock Now, I have to find another person to be on my side.

I haven't decided if I want a flower girl and ring bearer yet. Hopefully, someone he chooses won't be able to be in it. The bigger the party the more attendant gifts you have to buy. Our budget is not meant for a party of 8. :hellno: :hellno: :hellno: Not to mention, this is a vow renewal our party shouldn't be that big.

Now it is:
2 Matrons of Honor
2 BMs
1 Bestman
3 Groomsmen

Next week it will probably be something different.

Partial quote taken from my knot page - Why does it look like there are 8,000 people in the wedding from the "small" one you first started plannin?????? ahahahah....

What will the hostesses do?

They will assist the ushers with taking care of the guests, take care of the bridal party (snacks, water, etc prior to wedding), some will assist with the decor, some will be at the sign-in table, pass out favors, work the candy buffet, some will help with clean-up, serve food (if I don't hire a company). They are pretty much willing to do whatever they can to make the day easier on the bride and groom. As I was telling someone else, in the South people ASK if they can be a hostess and it is seen as an honor. Some of my hostesses were hostesses for my Mommy's wedding almost 30 years ago.

Okay, I was wondering because I have 6 hostess. Since my reception venue will have a staff. There isnt a lot for them to do at the reception. I do plan on having them assist the bridal party at the church. They will also be assigned to the sign in book at the church. They can help decorate the church. I have a decorator for the reception venue. The hostess will also help out with the RSVP list at the reception. The church has a wedding ministry and those ladies will be there also to assist also. The church has a janitorial staff that will take care of the clean up part. The arches,columns and candlebras belong to the church. I was just wondering if I missed any duties for them. Let me know if I am missing something.

No, it sounds PERFECT! Sounds like you covered everything. I basically had to CREATE things for them to do because like I said, it is viewed as an honor and I didn't want to hurt anyone's feelings :down: These are little ladies at our church, Mommy's friends, people who were friends of my Granny, etc. It's moreso for the sentiment. We have people who will be cleaning up, etc. but they will be doing little stuff like making sure no one leaves anything in the sanctuary, etc. Also, I have 500+ guests so I want all the help I can get. My wedding planner will also have them to assist her. I came up with this idea since she is doing a $3,000+ job for me for free. They will help her with the reception set-up, etc. I have about 62 tables plus my head table and kids table so I will have them help get the tables set, etc. I will also have them working the door along with the police officers because guests not on the list will not be allowed inside. Also there will be someone to attend to the children as I have about 15 children in my bridal party alone. They will be working in shifts so that EVERYONE can enjoy the reception. Like I said it's basically just to keep from hurting people's feelings. I had little 70 year old ladies asking if they can be a hostess and I just COULDN'T say no.
