How should you choose your bridesmaids?
Choosing your bridesmaids shouldn’t be stressful.
Pick them because they’re your people! They should be the friends who know you best and who YOU genuinely want beside you on the morning of your wedding.
Don’t choose someone just to please your partner or keep the peace with family. If they’re not truly your choice, chances are when the nerves hit, they’ll be the first person you snap at… and that’s not how you want to start married life or future family relationships.
And don’t add extra bridesmaids just to make the numbers look even. If you have three best friends, have three bridesmaids. You don’t need four.
Ignore the noise.
More bridesmaids doesn’t equal popularity, nor does it make for better photos, it just means more dresses, more logistics and more opinions.
Choose calm. Choose support. Choose your people.
