How Many Bridesmaids Is Too Many Bridesmaids?
In DepthWelcome to Pop The Question, a weekly space to dissect every aspect of wedding madness. Each Tuesday, we’ll ask a question (sometimes there might even be a poll!), you’ll share answers and stories, and then we’ll bring you the best of the bunch on Thursdays. You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, you’ll fly into a total rage over something that doesn’t actually matter … it will be just like your wedding day.
Two friends and I have a running game we play over email, called Too Many Bridesmaids. It’s fairly self-explanatory: When we see wedding photos of old family or school friends on Facebook, we share the ones in which the number of bridesmaids exceeds good sense. How many is that? Well, it’s a bit like porn in that you know it when you see it.
