Always a Bridesmaid Never a Groom

Posted by: Naomi In: Bridal Party|Theme Weddings|Traditions|Wedding Bloopers

A friend of a friend was married last weekend and while I did not attend the event,  I of course demanded the photos.  I thought I had seen it all when it comes to weddings but this was something else!   The Bride had not one, but 4 BridesMEN and not a single Bridesmaid in sight.  While apparently some of the guests were tsk-tsking the non-DSC02913.jpgtradition format, I completely understand her decision as I, like many women out there, seem to have far more male friends than female.

I applaud the bold choice this young Bride made and give props to the brave men who proudly stood on the “girl’s side.”   Any thoughts?  similar experiences?

It is so funny to see how non-traditional people are coming when it comes to their weddings. I give this bride props as well, she knew who she wanted by her side and she didn’t budge just because they were men. Kudos to you bride (and bridesmen!)

Congrats to the bride and groom. I have 5 bridesmaid in my wedding (16 days and counting) and I wish I had my male friends in the bridal party on my side. Men know how to behave themselves and they don’t go about thinking the day is about them.
Kudos.
Wishing I did the same.

I commend the bride and groom, it is very courageous. I’m planning on doing the same as i am the only girl of four kids as well as my boyfriend who is one out out of four boys. I would like to include my brothers as well as the grooms and can’t find enough “true girlfriends” to fit in. Congratulations!

One of my cousins got married last year and I was a bridesmaid in her wedding. About 2 weeks before the wedding the bride calls me up to ask me if I would mind not wearing my engagement ring at her wedding since it would distract people from looking at her ring, and she really didn’t want anyone in the bridal party sporting jewelry bigger than hers. Can anyone beat that bridezilla request?? — Alexis
