Alternative and gender-neutral wedding party names: adventure party, bridesmates, henchmen, and TONS more!
With the rising popularity of gender-blind wedding parties, and weddings without bridal parties, we need terms beyond “bridesmaids” and “groomsmen” to refer to the people who are helping you with all your wedding duties. Here are a few of the creative alternative names for bridal parties that our readers and Tribesmaids have come up with
Emma & Brian’s geeky rainy love fest wedding
This wedding is such a testament to budget weddings and their ability to be completely awesome without lots of bells and whistles. But three things they definitely found room for were their three geek-tastic cakes: Star Wars, Star Trek, and Doctor Who. You’ll also never guess how one of the bride’s brothers found a way to be present without actually being able to attend. Plus, we dare you to find ALL the geeky and bookish references in their epic, communal ceremony reading. So many references!
Stacie & Kevin’s soulful karaoke wedding
The rain may have threatened this outdoor wedding, but it couldn’t dampen the spirits of these two. The keg and karaoke party must go on! Add in a casual vibe, a fun after-party, some R. Kelly karaoke, and what looks to have been the most fun wedding party photo session ever, and you’re in for lots of smiles.
Becca & Justin’s butterflies and dragons fantasy wedding
Butterflies, dragons, and cloud canopies, oh my! Yep, we said a cloud canopy… that actually lit up like a cloud! That and the bride’s amazing monarch butterfly bouquet is only two pieces of the gorgeous puzzle that makes up this wedding. You’ll also want to see the leaf guestbook, wedding mascot giveaway, and the fantasy geek soundtrack of your dreams.
