When it comes to planning a wedding, picking your bridal party can be one of the most challenging decisions. It’s not just about selecting friends or family; it involves balancing relationships, personalities, and expectations.
After he proposes, you suddenly have a lot of thoughts rushing through your head. “Ohh I have to tell Adwoa first!” “No, mum and dad should know first”. You suddenly have a lot of names of people you are going to invite. For those who have a circle or group of friends, it might seem easy to automatically know who their bridesmaids are but for the ladies who do not have a circle of friends and are friends with everyone, it could be tough.
But worry no more, Weddings on Budget is here to take you through some things you should consider when choosing your bridesmaids.
First, consider the dynamics of your friendships. You want to choose bridesmaids who will support you throughout the planning process and on your big day. Think about how each potential bridesmaid interacts with others and whether they can work together harmoniously. It’s essential to have a group that can uplift each other and contribute positively to the experience.
Next, don’t forget about the practical aspects. Each bridesmaid will have different commitments, budgets, and styles. Be open about what you expect from them, whether it’s participating in planning events, helping with DIY projects, or simply being there for emotional support. Ultimately, choosing bridesmaids should reflect your values and the relationships that matter most to you, making the journey to your wedding day even more special.
You should also ask yourself these questions:
- Have you had a lengthy conversation in the past 6 months?
- Do they invite you to personal events?
- Do you know their last name?
- How would you feel if you weren’t invited to their wedding?
- Would you trust them to give you marital advice?
After asking yourself these questions, you should have a clearer picture of who you want to add to your bridal train. Hope it helps!
