Is it bad form for my groom not to ask his brother to be in the wedding party?
My groom's older brother is getting married this week, and he has a wedding party of six men, none of which are his 2 brothers. He made them junior ushers. We are getting married in 1 1/2 years. Would it be in bad taste to make him an usher if we are making the other brother a groomsman?

It's really your personal decision to include anyone you want in your bridal party, in any position you see fit. You should make the decision based on personalities and relationships rather than etiquette. Make sure to discuss this in detail with your groom so that there are no bad feelings either during the wedding or after. remember, this brother will soon be a member of your family and you won't want to start off with bad feelings or resentment.

Just make sure you make your decision for the right reasons - not in a tit-for-tat way as a reaction to decisions made at this wedding. Jill Curtis Psychotherapist, Author How to Get Married ... Again (A Guide to Second Weddings) London, UK http://www.familyonwards.com
