Can a Guy Be a Bridesmaid?
 My
best friend’s a guy. Can I have him stand up on my side of
the wedding party?
 Why
not? More and more brides and grooms are choosing to have their
opposite-sex friends at their sides when they tie the knot.
If he’s up to it, your lad of honor can do anything a female
honor attendant would do. But if he’d rather skip the dress-shopping
session and help you come up with a music list instead, by all means
play to his strengths.
Your honor attendant walks in the processional alone, right before
you make your entrance. In the recessional, he walks next to the
best man. Your friend may cause a few raised eyebrows come wedding
day—the older folk may not have seen a male attendant on the
bride’s side before. But hey, this is a day when you want your
closest friends at your side, no matter what gender they are.
