I was the personal attendant in a wedding for a good friend this past weekend. Talk about making the non-BM/GM feel like second class citizens - it was very strange:
We were asked to ride in the limo with the rest of the wedding party after the ceremony, but when the photographer called for "the entire wedding party" one of the BMs yells out "You just want the actual wedding party right, not these
guys?"
And then when we got to the reception we were told "You guys need to wait outside, the DJ isn't announcing you." They didn't want us to sneak in ahead of time and find seats with our SOs...we literally had to wait until after the 'actual'
wedding party was announced for some reason.
The ushers and I thinking of starting a support group :)
