There is but ONE bride of Christ. One prepared for her husband. It was the church, the believers. WE are the bride of Christ. We, the church, is the New Jerusalem where the Lord dwells forever.
Who then is the friend of the bridegroom?
John 3:29 He that hath the bride is the bridegroom: but the friend of the bridegroom, which standeth and heareth him, rejoiceth greatly because of the bridegroom's voice: this my joy therefore is fulfilled.

Not sure at this second, but I know who the bride is. 2 Corinthians 11:2 - I feel a divine jealousy for you, for I betrothed you to Christ to present you as a pure bride to her one husband.
