How many bridesmaids is too many?

Is there such a thing as 'too many' bridesmaids? what is the average number that is acceptable? I'm thinking between 4-6 is good enough for a crowd.

I'm having 5. and i don't think there's a limit to it. No harm having loads of bridesmaids i guess. I seen some got up to 7 or 8 or even 10 =)

for my wedding, we had about 6 bridesmaids.

too much is kind of a hassle for the preparation.

for me, 5 bridesmaids will do.

I think 4-8 is a good number to have

most BS packages usually have up to 8 bridesmaid dresses anyway and you'll have to top up if you want more which can be costly!!

for me, 3 should be the max number
