When you were asking people to be in your bridal party....

Did you ask people with your DH present (like as a couple)?

OR

Did you ask the girls and DH asked the guys?

OR

Did you just ask everyone (both guys and girls)?

DH is upset cause his sisters FH hasnt asked anyone to be in the BP. she's asked all the girls but the FH has yet to ask any of the guys. SIL said "he should just KNOW that he's in the wedding, we shouldnt have to ask him". so now cause she knows he's a bit peeved she says she will call him and ask him. But i KNOW that will pizz him off more! he wants his FBIL to be respectful enough to ask him on his own!!!

eta: DH and i asked everyone at our eparty and we did it together. he had 1 cousin that had to work that day so we went to his house a few days after the eparty and asked him face to face.

I asked the girls and DH asked the guys. Except for the FG because she was DH's sister's daughter, and my brother, because somehow that was just understood.

You know what, I think DH asked his sister instead of me asking her. Chat Icon I just never saw her alone and it never seemed like the right time...I'm so bad with stuff like that. My brother was a groomsman and DH didn't ask him, I asked (TOLD) him... Chat Icon We didn't see my brother often (he lived in another state) so it was easier for me to relay the message.

Re: When you were asking people to be in your bridal party....

lol... i went thru the same thing with FH!! i asked all my girls right away and he waited forever to ask his guys. the difference was i asked over the phone but he wanted to do it in person so it literally took months. a friend of mine didn't ask 3 guys to be in his BP till may - and he got married august 10th!!

We did it the same weekend but separately about a year before the wedding.

I asked the girls on my own and he asked the guys on his own. I had to force him to tell them though since he also thought they would all just "know" Chat Icon

I asked the girls; DH asked the guys. For the most part, I asked them if I was alone at the time. DH took his sweet time asking his guys but asked each one.

FBIL should ask.

I asked the girls, dh asked the guys but I was there when he asked and he was there when I asked. Does that make any sense? LOL!

That's what we did. DH took a lot longer to do the asking than I did...he waited until about 3 weeks before our wedding to ask his one sister to be his "Best Woman" (his 2 brothers were his Best Men) Chat Icon

We asked our people separately. My DH was terrible about it, he didn't ask his cousin until 6 weeks before the wedding. Chat Icon
