"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

I'm still marvelling at a relative's wedding that had eight bridesmaids and groomsmen. I half expected to find out that my cousin was marrying into royalty and the wedding photographer was going to be joined by paparazzi.

I somehow added the word "night" after the word "wedding" in my head while reading this and went to someplace very different than Matt intended.

Thrive to spite them

At one cousin's wedding there were 6 groomsmen and 6 bridesmaids because the groom couldn't decide between his brothers and best friends and had 6 people. My cousin ended up scrambling around trying to find enough girls to match.

Personally I think the groom should have cut down OR they shouldn't have worried about having the same number, especially since the church they got married in was so tiny they had to cram everyone in at the alter.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

I was once at a double wedding where the couples had 6 bridesmaids, 6 groomsmen, 2 junior bridesmaids, and a flower girl each.

I think we had seven on each side for my first wedding. It was a lot but those were the people we wanted.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I was one of eight bridesmaids in the last wedding I stood up in. 8 Groomsmen, natch, a flower girl and a ringbearer (okay, word now tainted).

It seemed fine, even though we threatened to outnumber the guests.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

For the ultimate wedding, I think you need to come up with tasks for the trained monkeys.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

ringbearer (okay, word now tainted).

Actually, I would like to see this at a wedding. Especially if he brings along his short bald friend with the funny syntax.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I probably would have had more attendants on my side, but Mr. H was pretty clear that he just wanted his dad and his 2 best friends, so I chopped my list down. A couple of girlfriends' feelings were hurt, but it seemed better than making Mr. H find people he didn't really care one way or the other about to be up there. He's a very friendly guy and makes friends easily, but there are very few people who know him well enough that he'd be comfortable with them standing up for him at his wedding.
