If you could repick your BM and H's GM would you get rid of any people? Would you add someone else in?

Yep sure would. Wouldn't change my girls. But we'd get change one of his groomsmen. One of them has ended up in jail for something really not good, he was a 'friend' of h's from high school that was workin for us at the time. He ended up screwing us around, stole from us, and then yeah, the jail thing. Would get rid of him and ask h's BIL.

Yes. H asked this guy who we were friendly with at the time to be a groomsman. We were never close to this person and I still don't understand why H would have picked him over some other friends. He's a nice enough guy but we haven't seen him since the wedding.

I probably wouldn't have had my sister in the wedding party. She was only in because my mother pressured me into it as the "right" thing to do. But she was a complete pain in the ass and stressed me out from the moment I asked her until the day after the wedding.

I wouldn't change anything. We included the people we knew would be around long-term and they all are.

I got a text from my MOH yesterday, she is my mom's age, her best friend and we are very close. Her daughters were my BMs. The oldest is graduating this year and going to prom this weekend. She sent her mom a text to please ask me to be there for her prom pictures. I was so excited and I shed a tear or two that she was sweet enough to ask me to be there. yay.

We totally would have. Not so much my BM's because they were people I was friends with for 5 or more years and still are or they were family. GM are a different story BIL wasn't in the wedding per his choice and I think H wishes he would have been. H's best man lives so far away so we don't really talk to him much anymore and I think H wishes that BIL was his best man. However I am fine with the way things were!

JoyBaby5 · May 2014

Oh yea! I'd have probably just picked family, besides my MOH, or at least gotten rid of one. I found out some pretty bad stuff about her, and don't even talk to her anymore.
I wouldn't have added anyone else in. If we both would have just had family members, I think that would have been best.

My MOH. I asked her because we've been friends the longest and I wouldn't have asked any of my other BMs to be my MOH. We were really close when I asked her, but she created more problems during the planning process than was helpful. We barely talk now.

I wish I had thought of this at the time, but I think it would have been nice to have our siblings stand up with us. It would have been nontraditional, but our siblings will always be our siblings.

No, my girls are still my besties and love them to death. We had some issues with one of the GM, he is diagnosed biopolar so he goes in and out of our lives, but honestly he was great during the wedding so I still don't regret having him in. Both H and I are lucky and blessed in friends and family.

We only had a MOH and BM, and I wouldn't change them.

I would have loved to have my 2 brothers, and H's 2 sisters involved, but we wanted to keep things simple.

Along52612 · May 2014

I would not take anyone out but I would have added one. H & I only had 3 people for both of us. He has twin brothers so of course they had to stand up in our wedding and one of his 1st cousin. My brother was an usher I would have liked him to be a GM. I would have put one of my of other girl friends but I knew she was due sometime around our wedding So that's why we only had 3 & not 4 stand up.

mandi921vh · May 2014

Nope. I had my 3 BFFs, my sister and my SIL. H had his 3 BFFs, his brother, and my brother. I made sure to pick people I knew would be around for the long haul

lnvane00 · May 2014

I would take one of my bridesmaids out. I should have never even asked her to be one. And then at this exact moment in time I would switch the line up.
My husband would probably take one of his groomsmen out also..

geojam224 · May 2014

Would not change a thing. My mom had horror stories about BMs and GM that didn't work out so we were really careful when we chose ours. My two sister, my bestest cuzzy (favorite cousin) and my best friend since 7th grade. H had his cousin, his roommate from college, and his best friend. He was trying at the time so hard to find a worthy 4th GM to match my 4 BMs, but I told him not to stretch it cuz we didn't wanna regret anything. The only thing we might have done differently is appoint a different Best Man, but no regrets.
