Uneven Numbers

If the groom wants 5 ushers and you only have 4 bridesmaids, you may feel the pressure to find one more friend or have your groom leave a friend behind.

Don’t feel pressured to do either. There is no rule that you need to have an equal numbered bridal party.  You can have more ushers than bridesmaids or the other way around. An usher can walk two bridesmaids in the recessional or they can walk alone or in pairs. Don’t turn away a friend for the sake of symmetry.
