Bridesman and Groomslady...or something like that

We only hear Bridesmaids in weddings. But would you know that nowadays, more couples are exercising mixed-gender bridal parties?

Yes, the bride and the groom can have their favorite people supporting them on their big day regardless of their genders.

We have compiled 18 photos of brides' and grooms' brothers, closest relatives and other guys best friends that accepted the role of being a “bridesman.”

Couple surrounded by the important people in their lives.

He also said that not all guests would enjoy a switch from the typical wedding roles. Though the new roles will require new names, it would be better if one gets creative.  Calling the male maid of honor, whether it's the man of honor or the bride's best man.
