Throughout this process you will find time and time again that we are very non-traditional in our wedding decisions and our wedding party is no exception. Brett and Joy will have both a Groomswoman and a Bridesman as we are calling them. When you see them standing and walking down the aisle appearing to be on the wrong sides, they are not, this was planned. Additionally, the women have been authorized to choose whatever dress they want as long as it is the correct color, therefore, they many not all match but it will be more useful for them. The men will not wear tuxedos or coats due to the heat on the beach. See below for more inforamation on the wedding party and their relationshp to the bride and groom.
