Wedding Services by Fashion ImageLab
 The ushers

The ushers are chosen by the groom and his best man and are usually brothers, close relatives or friends (which covers just about anyone!) of the bride and groom.

As a general guide you will need an usher for each 50 guests.

Traditionally the ushers are the responsibility of the best man, who ensures they know their duties.
