Hi! I'm getting married next year and in the midst of choosing my bridal party. I have always wanted to pick only those extremely close to me. As such, I am now in a predicament. I have 4 ushers and 3 bridesmaids that I would like to ask. Is it important for the bridal party to be even. If not, can you give me any ideas on how to arrange the procession and the first dance etc.
Thank you so much. |

It is fine to have an uneven number of attendants. When they enter, have the guys walk in with the groom and the girls walk in by themselves. When they exit, the last bridesmaid can be escorted out by two groomsmen. She should walk to the center, in front of the aisle, turn to face the guests, and pause. Then the first groomsman will step behind her and to her left side, while the second groomsman steps directly to her right side. As for the first dance, that is only for the bride and groom. You do not need to have a wedding party dance if you don't want one or if it is inconvenient. Most couples today only focus on the couple's dance and the father-daughter dance and sometimes a groom and mother dance. If you want to have a wedding party dance, let each member of the wedding party choose their own partner, including choosing their spouse or date. They do not have to dance only with another member of the wedding party.
