Little Brother

I have a little brother who is going to be 11 at the time on our wedding and i am not sure where to include him. He is slightly to old to be the ring bearer. So we have desided to have him be a junior groomsman...which he is happy about anyway. But i dont know what to do with him when everybody walks in. I want the groomsman and the bridesmaid to walk in together but what does my little brother do..walk by himself??? Will that look weird??

It's fine if he walks in by himself.

I think it would be fine to walk in by himself.  If he's on the shy side maybe he could walk in with your mom and dad.

I like the above ideas. Also, he could strut in with one or two BMs on his arm.

You could always have him walk with the flower girl and/or ring bearer too, especially if the other two are littler kids they might feel more comfortable walking with someone else
- the last thing you want is your flower girl to have a breakdown at the head of the aisle b/c she's scared of all the people staring at her (I've seen it happen)

Yeah but i've seen the flower girl do this while being escorted. Tantrums are a risk you run when including children in your wedding. Chances are that the "junior Groomsman" isn't going to want to escort a few kids down the aisle but you could ask him. If they did start throwing a tantrum at the end of the aisle, in front of everyone, he probably wouldn't know what to do anyways.

He could also walk your mother in, especially if your father will be walking with you.
