    Ok... so I've already posted about one of my bridesmaid issues with my fiance's uncle's girlfriend who is a dear friend of mine. I'm planning to offer her some help with the dress but I can only do so much I have to pay for my flower girl and ring bearer stuff too because they are my children. Plus my fiance and I are paying for our wedding without any help so I really can't afford to do too much. But now one of my other bridesmaids has dropped out and I completely understand where she's coming from and I'm not mad at all but that means if they both drop I'm left with just my maid of honor and I don't really have anyone else to be a bridesmaid and I have to have two because my fiance has 2 groomsmen... AHHH!!!! I just don't know what to do! Would it be ok for it to be lop-sided? Can I really get by with just one bridesmaid and two groomsmen? I need opinions!!!

    Lots of girls have uneven parties. You can just have them walk down the aisle alone. I've seen that before and I thought it still looked really nice :)

    I agree - I think it is completely fine to have an uneven bridal party. My fiance and I discussed several options and in the end we decided it was more important to have those close to us than even numbers. I think it is becoming more and more common - but ultimately, only you will know if you are ok with an uneven party.

    Please don't stress over it, you don't neeeeed to have equal numbers-- in fact, I've seen a lot of nice pictures with uneven bridal parties, and I like the look. I remember something about the rule of "3"?? About odd numbers being visually pleasing =)

    I may end up with just a MOH myself and 5 groomsmen lol...
