Alright, listen up, you young’uns! Wanna know how to pick them bridesmaid gals for your big day? It ain’t rocket science, I tell ya. Just gotta use your common sense, somethin’ these youngsters seem to be missin’ these days.
First off, don’t go pickin’ just anybody. You gotta choose gals you really, really like. You know, the ones who’ve been there for you through thick and thin. The ones who’d hold your hair back when you’re puking your guts out, not just the ones who look good in pictures. That’s what they call “deep connection” or somethin’ fancy like that. But I just call it good friends, ya know?
And don’t be shy about askin’ ’em early. Don’t wait ’til the last minute. Give ’em at least eight months, they say. Gives ’em time to get their dresses and whatnot. And speakin’ of dresses, don’t go pickin’ somethin’ that’ll make them gals look like stuffed sausages. Think about what looks good on ’em, not just what looks good in some magazine.
- Pick gals you really like.
- Ask ’em early, like, eight months or so.
- Don’t make ’em wear ugly dresses.
Now, how many of these gals you need? Well, that depends. Some folks have a whole army, like twelve or more! Can you believe that? Twelve! That’s more than I got chickens in my coop! Most folks, though, they have, like, three to six. That sounds about right to me. Not too many, not too few. Just enough to get the job done, ya know?
And don’t be frettin’ about whether they gotta be girls or boys neither. If your best pal is a fella, well, then he can be a bridesmaid, or “bridesman” or whatever they call it these days. It’s your day, you do what you want! And don’t forget the little ones, the nieces and such. They can be “junior bridesmaids” if they ain’t too big. Cute little things, they are.
Family’s important too, so if you got sisters or sisters-in-law, well, they gotta be up there with ya, ain’t that right? It’s just the way things are done. Unless they’re real stinkers, of course. Then you can just pretend you forgot to ask ‘em. Just kiddin’! Sorta.
And when you’re standin’ up there at the altar, line ’em up all nice and pretty. Shortest ones closest to ya, tallest ones further away. Makes for a nice picture, they say. But honestly, who cares about all that? As long as you’re happy, that’s all that matters. Don’t get too caught up in all the fancy stuff, ya hear?
So there you have it. Pickin’ your bridesmaids ain’t so hard after all. Just use your head, pick the gals you love, and don’t make ’em wear ugly dresses. And most importantly, have a good time! It’s your weddin’ day, so enjoy it!
And one more thing, don’t be listenin’ to all them fancy weddin’ planners tryin’ to tell ya what to do. They just want your money. You do it your way, the way you want it. That’s what really matters in the end. It ain’t about the fancy flowers or the big cake, it’s about you and your fella, and the folks who love ya.
Now, go on and get hitched! And don’t forget to invite me to the weddin’! I love a good piece of cake, ya know.
This weddin’ stuff, it’s all a big fuss if ya ask me. But if you gotta do it, do it right, with the right people by your side. And don’t be spendin’ all your money on silly things, save some for a rainy day, that’s what I say.
And remember, at the end of the day, it’s about love and family, and havin’ a good time. So don’t sweat the small stuff. And for goodness sake, make sure there’s plenty of food at that reception! Nothin’ worse than a hungry weddin’ guest.
