This TikTok trend will make you want to downsize your wedding party

If you’re on the chaotic side of TikTok, you’ve probably already seen this “Where my bridesmaids are now“Trend. This is where former brides are basically throwing their bridal showers in full swing. As if being a bridesmaid wasn’t bad enough, now your former friend is teasing you about your views on social media?! My biggest fear is seeing my face appear in one of these, and I’ve never been a bridesmaid!

This trend has either stopped Megan Moroney’s “The Girls” with lyrics about female friendships that are “easy to maintain and harder to find.”“, but accordingly From these videos, it sounds like the friends you make with your bridesmaids are easy to make (sometimes it’s your husband’s sister or your co-worker) and harder to keep. These videos are also set To Kylie Morgan’s “Bridesmaids” And while the lyrics are about “Ride or Dies,” this trend shows that more of these friendships are “dying” rather than riding. In my opinion This trend is Only You should consider further evidence smaller Bridal shower or forego bridesmaids altogether.

You will argue with at least one of your bridesmaids

I still have to see this trend where the bride is still close with everything her bridesmaids. Either the bride is “no longer in touch” with at least one of her bridesmaids or they are “estranged” but “hoping she’s doing well in life” (sure you do, Lisa…).

And while not all friendships can survive the bridesmaid test and last forever, your overpriced photos definitely will! How that of this bride Pinterest-perfect wedding in her big white lace dress and pearls, while her five bridesmaids stood proudly behind her in their navy dresses and matching pearl necklaces. Today this former bride only speaks to her one Bridesmaid after her maid of honor had an affair with her now ex-husband?! Oh, the tea! But also, how is that possible?e…tHey, we wore pearls!

You are trusting your life to your spouse, not yours best friends

When former brides from over a decade ago tell you that they are no longer friends with most of their bridesmaids, why do bridesmaids even exist? Or if you are going to have bridesmaids Perhaps This is your sign to be more selective about who is by your side. Or perhaps Don’t let your wedding party stand next to you during the ceremony. Have her walk down the aisle with you and then have her take a seat. This way, even if you and bridesmaid Becky argue, she won’t be the backdrop that ruins your vows.

We know that almost 50% of marriages end in divorce. So instead of increasing the likelihood of having to destroy your overpriced wedding footage, increase the risk of cutting out or cutting out one or more of your former girlfriends/bridesmaids. For now, your vows are to your spouse and not your best friends.

Quality over quantity

If you’re planning on hosting a bridal shower, be aware that you don’t need to have a large wedding reception because you want the dresses to showcase all the shades of blue to match your bouquet. Or you feel like you need revenge from the one friend you really broke up with – sorry – because you were her bridesmaid and it’s only fair if she’s yours!

Your wedding, your rules, baby! I’ve heard about it So Many brides make it a point to have a certain number of bridesmaids so that their bridal party harmonizes with their future husband’s groomsmen community. Stop it immediately! It is better to have one or two bridesmaids WHO You know that in these photos you will be in your life forever and who will last a lifetime, rather than a group of girls that you will inevitably lose touch with. According to this trend, the few bridesmaids who stand the test of time are usually family members you don’t hate And or this friend who basically Family.

There are unobtrusive ways your friends can be a part of your wedding

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but you don’t have to have your friends in your bridal party to prove that they are your friends. Actually, Don’t let your best friends spend so much money on a dress they’ll never wear again make her get Getting up at 5 a.m. for professional hair and makeup on the big day will show your girls how much you care Strictly speaking take care of her.

Your friends can still be there for you while you shop for your wedding dress or celebrate your bachelorette party (although a Solorette Sounds like the right way) to spend time with you as you prepare for your wedding, help with the ceremony, give a speech, etc. without having the title of “bridesmaid.” Actually, Your true friends will want to do these things for you without you having to make it part of their “job.” In Your wedding reception.

Let this “Where are my bridesmaids now?” trend be a warning. Save Your wedding photos and your friendships by downsizing or giving up your wedding party. Your future self (and your current friends) will thank you.
