Very helpful tips, thank you!

I don’t know, I’ve been estranged from most of my family for about 11 years. I did ask my sister to be in the wedding and she accepted, but it takes her weeks to answer messages from me. She caters to my mother who has always been very abusive to me and my mother has to come to the wedding for my sister to be in the wedding. She has declined invitations to visit before the wedding and usually just ignores my messages. I really regret asking her to be a bridesmaid. I really regret telling her it would be OK to bring our mother to my wedding in spite of my past abuse. And I really regret asking her when she’s obviously very disinterested in me and my wedding. I am heavily contemplating telling her that maybe it’s not a good idea, what, with the family estrangement and factions.

I only need one bridesmaid and my fiancé only needs one best man. The day is about us and no one else. Small and intimate for me.

I didn't realise bridesmaids paid for their own dresses in America. The tradition in the UK is the bride pays

Yeah, my boyfriend has 5 sisters and I fully plan to ask my baby sister to stand next to me. Bridesmaids set 😅

I'm 22 years old and I'm the maid of honor of my sister's wedding next year😂 I've been researching a lot on what to do so I can do my responsibilities despite my age

If it’s coming from the heart it shouldn’t matter what the people think

Hey, it's really not cool that you turned off auto-captions. It means that those of us who are Deaf are unable to watch your video. :/

Thank you, lol

I wedding vows wirte

Thank you! Great advice!!

My wedding is today i àm starting to write them

Ok so this is was super helpful cause I’m getting married and damn I’m like wtf speech In front of 140 people where did I sign up for this?!?🎉😅

Why does it matter about who you’re going to be close with in 10 years? You’re getting married now?

A werid funny fact about me… every two years I’ll write vows to my future husband… I have a boyfriend now (3 years with him) I’m almost 20 so I’m going to rewrite my vows that I would want now.

This maybe crazy but why do I have to make family feel honored and included… when the day is about me. If I prefer my my friends for bridesmaids that should be okay

Thank you for this video!!!!!!!!

I love the new mismatched trend. If you pick a color palette and have the girls choose any dress that want within that palette then they can choose something they feel comfortable in and that fits their budget. The only stipulation i would make is it has to be floor length.

This was really helpful, thanks. I have three picked but been worried about which of my other closer friends to ask. I hadn't thought of inviting some to the bachelorette, but not to be in the bridal party. I was thinking it was all or nothing. However, I would not ask family, because my family is not close, and I'm also not close with my fiancé's sisters; that would be really uncomfortable for me. I'd rather have my close friends around me at that time, who will help me relax and plan the kind of fun I really want to have, not what people who don't know me well would plan for me.

Number 5 was one I didn’t think about but will do now. Thank you!

My wedding is tomorrow and I'm writing my vows today ;/

This is super helpful!! Thank you!! I’m getting married in 7 days (ahhhhh!!!) and my fiancé and I will be saying our vows at the ceremony. All great tips and ideas to consider.

I think I have watched all your Petal and Glass videos. Each of them are amazing. You have such wisdom and class. My wife and I were married almost 40 years ago. Our photographer was no different than any other photographer of that generation but I will say that I can tell that you are different in the best possible way. Our photographer cared about the photos he took and I can tell that YOU genuinely care about the couple first and then the photos, thank you. I’m baffled that you do not have a million bazillion views and likes of this video and the rest. The content and quality of all your videos are just amazing. I pray God’s richest blessings for you, your family, and all the lives you touch in this world.

So true about the cake. I had a three-tier cake that I got from our grocery store bakery at $249.00. I'm so glad I bought a few extra dozen of flowers because the person that picked up my cake hit their brakes too hard and yes....the cake went flying off the seat onto its top. The top was ruined but I had flowers and the venue caterers made a beautiful cascading effect with them and no one knew.

thansk for this. it was so hard to decide.!!!

My pastor hates the stupid traditional way and instead he made a proper biblical way it’s pretty awesome

Yeah still wondering why my future sister in law never asked me to be her bridesmaid after calling me her “sister” for so many years. I have known her for 10 years, and I’ve only ever been kind to her and given her lots of love. 😕 🤷🏻‍♀️

Lol yes let’s let the people be! 😆

I have about 10 months until I get married and felt the need I needed help right now 😂

I am getting married next year in November 5th, 2022 between twelve and one to my fiancée

Very well said.Full of great advice👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

*About The Young Bridesmaids * Just select the responsible ones! I was a bridesmaid at 12 years old for my uncle’s wedding, and I helped out with most of the bridesmaid duties. Really depends on the person. (I helped the bride with jewelry, my bridesmaid dress, wedding theme, decor, etc.)

Thank you! This is so helpful

This video really helped me!

Mines wedding in 2days time

Yes, chip on the shoulder....my best friend .....blows I want her there, but she is jealous😔🥵

GREAT tips! Thank you!

You do not need to have family as your bridesmaids or your sister in laws, you should have who you Want as your bridesmaids

Thanks! I feel better now

It is interesting to see how different cultures around weddings are. In my country, braidsmaids just wear whatever they want. No fight about styles, nobody feeling uncomfortable in the bride's pick. Everyone pays as much as they can afford and they can reuse the dress for the next wedding.

I love beauty and brains. Lets pray for my wedding vows in Jesus Christ Amen👰💍🇺🇸💋

So helpful!!! Thank you!

I’m an 11 year old, why am I here? 😂 I’ll come back when I’m engaged, 😂

I'm only 15, not even in a relationship right now, yet this randomly popped into my mind 😂

My wedding party will be my sister , childhood friend , and 2 favorite cousins 💗

Yes about the bridesmaids being used as accessories for your wedding day. This is something I definitely worry about and why I chose to only have one bridesmaid. I want the person standing up with me to really want to be there and not feel like they are interchangeable with anyone else in my life. I just feel like having no more than three or four people makes more sense in terms of time and cost. There are other ways to honor your friends and female relatives than by asking them to wear matching chiffon dresses and stand in a line for 20 minutes. And I am helping my bridesmaid pay for her dress because I only think its fair.

I had my 3 sister in laws, and my sister. Plus my niece and nephew. And he had his 2 cousins my brother and my cousin.

The faded space interstingly welcome because jury lovely hover next a diligent chain. ill, observant copper

I also wonder what your opinion is on this. Obviously if someone has a huge budget or just wants to spend a ton of money on their wedding, do you think it’s even worth it all to spend like $50,000 + just on one day? because isn’t the average wedding in the US usually like $30,000, I feel like that’s so ridiculous for just one day! I understand that sometimes huge weddings may be due to huge families on each side or traditions in the family
