What Weddings Would Be Like If Bridesmaids Didn't Exist
- The bride would feel a lot more stressed out in the build-up to the wedding because she wouldn't have a right hand woman to hand over stuff to
- There wouldn't be a hen party organised
- Nobody to help the bride choose her wedding dress (other than her family)
- Whose shoulder would the bride cry on when she feels overstressed?
- Nobody to help the bride out of her wedding car
- Who would make sure the bride eats something on the morning of her wedding (and has plenty of water/soft drinks so she doesn't get dehydrated)
- No pretty bridesmaids for the groom's party to flirt with
- No pretty bridesmaids frocks to admire
- The bride would have to discuss everything with her mum/sister/best friend - no back up team of bridesmaids to share ideas/pictures/selfies of herself with wedding hair ideas
- It would feel a bit lonely on the wedding morning getting ready without your girls around you
- Who would hold the bride's bouquet as she says her vows?
- Who would help the bride to adjust her veil, train and say a word of support as she steps off to walk down the aisle?
- Who would witness the signing of the register?
- Who would walk down the aisle with the Best Man after the ceremony?
- Who would keep hold of an all-important clutch bag containing tissues, concealer and other must-have products the bride will need nearby on her wedding day?
- Who would help to break the ice at the wedding reception, acting as a greeter and introducing people to one another?
- Who would make sure the bride looks perfect for her wedding photographs, touching up her make-up if necessary?
- Who would get the party started by getting up and dancing once the first dance is over?
- Make sure the guest book is signed by everybody?
- Decorate the getaway car for the bride and groom so they set off for their honeymoon in style?
Yes, you can do without bridesmaids. But will you want to?
