As Charlotte wedding planners, one of the things we love about our jobs is seeing our brides make their wedding day uniquely their own. While traditions are nice, they don’t have to run your day. That’s why our current favorite trend is having fun and including a bridal party mix up. Have a guy who is your best friend? Then add a bridesman to your side! What about a groomswoman or a flower boy? Mix it up! Your wedding is your day so make sure your bridal party is full of the people who mean the most to you!
Bridesmen and Groomswomen

Who says all your friends have to be women just because your the bride? Maybe your brother is your best friend, or your groom has a girl cousin he grew up with. Don’t feel like you have to have them stand on the opposite side, because of tradition. It’s your wedding and you deserve to have the people who mean the most to you stand up by your side!
Outfits

While we are mixing things up, who says your bridal party has to conform to traditional clothing. Have fun when choosing their outfits. Your bridal party is made up of your very closest friends and family members so why not allow them to be comfortable. Don’t feel like you have to stick to tradition here.
Pets

They are often our very best friends. So why not add them to your bridal party? They can stand at the altar with you or walk down the aisle as your flower girl or ring bearer. They have been a great companion and will most definitely be a part of your life and marriage so doesn’t it make sense to include them on your most special day?
