Since those ladies standing on your side are responsible for keeping you sane during the whole wedding process then its best for you to ensure that they’re a happy bunch. There are some simple rules to follow to do just that:

First off, make sure that you choose friends or family that understand you. This is important because it allows less room for getting in a tiff with those who aren’t use to some of your quirky habits.

Another important rule is to explain your reasoning to the friends who didn’t make the cut. You wouldn’t want a close friend to find out through someone else that you weren’t inviting them to be a part of your bridal party. This prevents stress for you and makes your other friends still feel special.

You also need to realize that more isn’t always better. More means more opinions, more personalities and more chances for a blow up. Small and sweet is usually a safe bet!

Timing is also an important aspect, be sure to take some time and really decide who you want to be a part of your bridal party. Generally people are patient and understanding about a brides decision on her bridal party.

To wrap it all up, ask your ladies in style, be sure to confront a problem when it arises and thank your bridesmaids after the fact for being your support team! It’s a big responsibility but also a fun one. If you want to read more then check out this article!
