  I have been in 4 weddings. Bridesmaid twice and MOH twice. Ironically, I have cut off friendships with two of those people. Weddings can bring out the best and worst in people.

  Married August 2009

  3 years. 5 losses.

  I have been asked 5 times (3 bridesmaid/ 2 MOH). I was actually only in 4 weddings (I think, unless I am forgetting one). The 5 th was called off 2 weeks before the wedding, and I suffered through all the extras, as well as helping the bride move out after, so I still count it
  
  Still friends with? 2 of them.
  
  I lied. 6. I forgot my brothers first wedding. Bridesmaid. I guess that makes 3 I am still close with.

  
  

  After 2 years of TTC, lots of tests, and a Hysteroscopy/Laparoscopy to remove several polyps,
  Clomid/IUI #1 3/14: cancelled due to surprise BFP 3/8/14.
  Beta 1 3/11: 398  Beta 2 3/13: 728  Beta 3 3/20: 11,482 
  Surprise BFP turns into Surprise Twins!

  Zero. I was going to be the MOH for my best friend (at the time), but we had a falling out. I'm glad I didn't end up being her MOH though because apparently she was a bridezilla, and her fiance left her the day before the wedding because of it...

  
  

  I know that when my sisters get married I'll be in the bridal party, and probably for a couple of my good friends, but we still have a few years to go before they're ready to get married. I can't wait though!

  I clicked 4 but it is actually 6 technically. I stood as a junior BM is each of my parents second weddings, so I didn't count those.  I have also stood for SIL and my 3 best friends, but always a BM never a MOH

  I think I've only been a junior bridesmaid one time for my cousin. I was flower girl for my aunts wedding. At other weddings, I was guest book attendant and pianist. A lot of my friends are still single so I lucked out so far, haha!

  I've been MOH in two and am hoping to avoid being asked ever again.  I did turn down two requests.

  5. 

  
  

  2 I was technically a junior bridesmaid (for my aunt and for my mom when she remarried).

  
  

  2 I was just a bridesmaid

  
  

  1 I was MOH (for my sister)

  
  

  I would have been a joint MOH (don't even get me started on having to share the title) for my previous BFF's wedding, but they called everything off about 5 1/2 months before the date. I was just about to order my dress.

  I was going to answer 0 but realized I must have blocked them out. Pitty I couldn't pick a number and "I hate weddings".

  4. 3 friends and a sister. I was joint MOH for one friend (who was bridezilla and we had a party the day after the wedding celebrating it being over) and MOH for my sister.
  
  Now that I think about it, I was flower girl for one of my aunts, and junior bridesmaid twice for another aunt and another uncle. I didnt count those.

  Only one, and I was the MOH. It was my sister's wedding in 2008. None of my close friends are married, or they were already married by the time I met them. DH has been in three (brother, BFF, friend).

  TTC #1 since Feb. '12. dx: "unexplained" IF
  

  After 2 shitty IVF cycles and 1 loss at 6+2 (EDD 11/7/14), DH and I are pursuing DIA.
