Happy Monday everyone! A big decision you have to make as a bride is choosing who to ask to be in your bridal party. You've probably got a ton of girlfriends, family members, co-workers that you would like to ask and it's definitely difficult to bring it down to a handful of people. So how many should you ask?
Think about the affair you're having. Is it an intimate destination wedding? A large cathedral wedding? Your guest list really determines the number of your bridal party, you don't want a disproportionate amount of people on the altar to the rest of the wedding guests.
If you're having between 30-50 people, having a maid of honor and one bridesmaid is definitely the best way to go. Between 50-120 people consider 3-4 bridesmaids. 180 is the average number for wedding guests so for an average wedding think about having 4-6 bridesmaids. A larger wedding with over 200 people means between 7-10 is appropriate. But try to stay under 10, a large bridal party will without a doubt overwhelm you.
