Choosing the Perfect Wedding Party

One thing that all of my friends agreed on, throughout the years, was that if you were to ask us at any moment, we could tell you who all of our bridesmaids would be if we were to get married.  Now certain people that remain fixed in your wedding party (i.e. siblings), however as the dynamics of your friendships change, so does your perfect wedding party.

When Dustin and I called our friends telling them the big news, we also proudly told them their role in our ceremony.  There was little controversy (minus a father/brother best man battle), and we knew exactly who we wanted to include.

BUT!  What do you do with your beloved friends that were once in your mental wedding party?  Do you just leave them out?  That could hurt a lot of feelings.  

That's when the lovely filler positions come in handy.  Instead of not including them, let them help with guest registry or programs.  Any way to involve them is great.  ALSO!  Don't forget to invite them to engagement and bachelorette parties, as well as wedding showers.  These are your friends to remember!

So with all of that being said, I would like to announce the wedding party of Kristen Cooper & Dustin King.
