How to Start a Bridesmaid Group Chat

There are a few things you need to consider when it comes to setting up a bridesmaid group chat. Here are all the steps you need to follow for the perfect group chat for you and your bridesmaids:

• Choose a platform: Whatsapp is a really popular one, but you could also choose iMessage, Facebook Messenger or another similar messaging app. Sites connected to a social media network could be more tricky, as not everyone uses them.
• Pick the group name: Hopefully now you’ve got your group chat name sorted, with our list of inspiration!
• Set a group chat picture: Don’t just leave it as a sad silhouette! Choose something that sums up the vibe of your wedding and your group chat.
• Send an introduction message: Don’t just start the group and be silent - craft an introduction message that states how excited you are to have them all in your wedding party, and if they don’t all know each other, offer brief introductions including how you know them.

Example introduction messages include:

• “Hey besties! I’m so excited to have you as my bridesmaids - this group will help us stay organised and let me keep you up to date with all the key wedding info.”
• “Welcome to my bridal dream team! In this group we have Sasha, my best friend from school, Sara, my uni roomie, and Sienna, who I met through Steve as she’s married to the best man!”
• “Don’t you dare mute this chat - this is where I’ll share all the wedding updates and plans with you, starting with dress shopping!”

Why Have a Bridesmaid Group Chat?

While you might dread the idea of yet another group chat, a bridesmaid group chat is really handy for keeping those key wedding party members in the loop about your wedding plans.

You can use it to share details of your upcoming dress shopping appointments, to share details of bridesmaid fittings, any events/tastings/viewings you want them to come to you with, and to just vent about any wedding planning stresses you might have. 

The role of a bridesmaid includes supporting the bride, so don’t be afraid to lean on your group chat if you need them. 

It’s also great for keeping your squad connected, particularly if everyone lives quite far apart, or doesn’t know everyone else. They might feel more confident discussing ideas with each other if you’re present too - even just over text!

Bridesmaid Group Chat Tips, Advice & Ideas

There are a few key things to keep in mind when it comes to setting up your bridesmaid group chat.

How Do I Introduce My Bridesmaids in a Group Chat?

When it comes to introducing your bridesmaids in a group chat, try and give some context about who they are and why you’ve asked them to be your bridesmaid. 

Explain how you met, why you love them and what they’re bringing to your wedding party. They’ll feel appreciated, and the others will see why they’re such an important part of your life.

When Should I Start the Bridesmaid Group Chat?

You can start your bridesmaid group chat as soon as you’ve confirmed your bridesmaids. It’s a bit boring, but we’d also recommend putting in writing in the chat what you’ve agreed with your bridesmaids.

Recapping what you’ll pay for and if they’re financially responsible for anything is so important, as well as confirming any of your hen do hard nos, so they have it all in one place!

What to Name My Bridesmaid Group Chat?

When thinking of a bridesmaid group chat name, think about things that you love that tie into your wedding. Be inspired by your favourite film, artist or song - or keep it simple! You don’t have to put pressure on yourself to find a pun.

Bridesmaid Group Chat Dos & Don’ts

Follow these bridesmaid group chat rules and you’ll have the best group chat going!

Do:

• Give everyone a glowing introduction if they don’t know each other
• Set out expectations clearly and at the beginning
• Set the tone for the group - people will follow your vibe!
• Keep it positive and create a happy space for your planning updates
• Pin important details like fitting details, locations, etc. 

Don’t:

• Spam the chat! It’s really exciting of course, but make sure messages don’t get lost
• Bring any drama - while it’s tempting to sound off about someone causing you stress, it’s not the place to gossip about people
• Add too many people - just keep it to your wedding party members to avoid confusion
• Expect immediate replies - your bridesmaids have their own lives to manage too so give them plenty of time
• Your bridesmaid group chat is more than just a tool for wedding planning updates - it’s a place for your wedding party to get to know each other and hype each other up as you prepare for your exciting event!

Once you’ve got the perfect name, picture and tone, it’s time for the fun to start. And by the fun, we mean the hen do planning, of course!
