How many attendants do I need?
This is entirely up to you, though you may want to take into account the traditions in your area. You can have none, one, six...whatever seems suitable.
That said, the number of attendants does tend to increase with the formality and size of the wedding, so that some people will probably think it a bit silly to have six bridesmaids when there are only 50 guests in an afternoon garden wedding.
