Can you have a male bridesmaid?

Can you have a male bridesmaid?

In 2025, weddings are more inclusive and reflective of the couple's relationships and friendships.

The traditional roles of bridesmaids and groomsmen are evolving, allowing for a more personalised and meaningful celebration.

If one of your best friends is male, can they still be a bridesmaid? The answer is, of course. You can have anyone you choose be your bridesmaid. There are possibly better terms to use than bridesmaid, such as bridesman, or man of honour. Or why not just ditch the genders for the whole wedding party , and call them wedding attendants, I Do crew, wedding posse, or commitment crew?

Mackenzie and Damon chose their best friends to stand by their side, regardless of gender. Mackenzie's Team Bride included Emily, Lauren, and Zak, while Damon's Team Groom featured Neville, Bailey, and Tannah.

The gals donned fit and flare silky dresses in burnt orange, while the guys looked dapper in all black. The result? A visually stunning and harmonious ensemble that exemplified unity and friendship.
