How many weddings have you stood in?

Question

i.e. as a groomsman or bridesmaid. Ever as the Bestman or Maid of Honour? And, are they still married?

Which on was your most memorable one?
(*lots of questions....)

Answer 1

10 times- twice the maid of honor. 7 out of 10 are still together.

Just as the saying goes, always a bridesmaid, never a bride.

Most memorable was one of my sisters where my niece dipped her dress in the toilet and my wallet was stolen in the church.

Answer 2

I have never actually stood up for anyone, but I have planned quite a few weddings. It is the most amazing thing to be let into someones' marriage and family life. I become one of the family and it is a great honor to see the couple walking down the aisle. It is more than anything I could ever ask for ... being a planner is the most rewarding job out of any I've had before.

Answer 3

I stood-up for 5 weddings.

As a child, I was a flower girl for 2 weddings.
(my Godfather's wedding and then my Aunt's wedding)

Then, when I was 16yrs, I was Junior Bridesmaid for my cousin's wedding.
I didn't really enjoy that one because I didn't have a partner in the wedding party.. usually bridesmaid will have an "usher" to walk down the aisle with...and I didn't.

Then (at 18yrs) I was a Bridesmaid again for my other cousin's wedding.
But then I got called away as my daughter became ill at the sitters, so I didn't really get to enjoy that wedding.

Then, last year (25 yrs) I was Maid of Honor at my best friends wedding. This one takes the cake because my husband was the "Best Man" too.
We both had to make a speech at the diner for this one and we had lots of good, funny and embarrasing stories to share.
The 4 of us have been friends since teenagers and they were in our wedding party too when we were married so it was story pay-back time (LOL). It was one of the best nights of my life.

Answer 4

Besides my own, I have been in 2 weddings, one as a bridesmaid, one as a maid of honor. Both are still married, one for 12 years one for 7 months.

I cant pick a favorite, they were both so different in their own ways, but they were both beautiful and wonderful weddings and I had a great time at each and more importantly each couple had a great time at their weddings.

Answer 5

I've been in three weddings (four if you count my own), 2 as maid of honor and one as a bridesmaid. The first wedding, my sisters, they are divorced; the second, my SIL's, they are on the path of divorce; and the 3rd, a close friend of mine, they are still married and haven't haven't an anniversary yet.

Answer 6

I have been the maid of honor once and the matron of honor twice. The most memorable wedding I was in was my brother and sister in law's. My sister in law asked me to be her matron of honor and I couldn't have been more thrilled. I had known her for a lot of years so it was like we were already family before she married my brother. All three couples are still happily married with beautiful children.

Answer 7

bridesmaid twice and never again! I was with the worst ushers ever. both couples are still married after 10 years

Answer 8

One - I was a bridesmaid - they are still together (4 years now) but they are having some problems. They're on a trial seperation right now.

Answer 9

I've stood in 4, and all are still married, they were all good. I should mention that we were all married in the last two years - we're all between 22-25

Answer 10

Before ever becoming a minister, I was MoH in 2 weddings.
Both couples are nearing their 30 year anniversary, both have one child.
