I have two ring bearers what should I do?

Okay my mom ended up asking my little cousin to my ring bearer without telling me, and I had already asked my fiance's little cousin to be the ring bearer and when i told her thats when I found out about my cousin already being asked to be ring bearer. Now I would hate to unask one of them. My fiance really would not like them to be both ring bearers because it kinda steals the spotlight off of the one is there any other ideas that I can do so I can still keep both boys in the wedding?

I've seen a cute little thing where the boys (or boy) carries a sign that says "Here Comes the Bride!".

Well, your mom definately overstepped her bounds by asking - that's your and your FI's domain....anyway, now that's it done, don't unask a child.

Just have them both walk down together - RBs rarely even carry the rings these days anyway. They could each carry a little pillow, if you want or one could carry the pillow and then one could carry the Here Comes The Bride sign (cute idea)...

They don't have to carry anything at all, as another option. Their only real purpose is to look cute & be adorable so they could just walk down together and then take their seats. It's perfectly fine to have 2.

We are having two ring bearers. The youngest one will carry a "Here Comes the Bride" sign, and the oldest will carry the rings.

Honestly, just have two ring bearers.  The last thing I think you should do is to hurt a kid's feelings even though your mom was out of line.

We had 2 RB.  They each carried a pillow with one of the rings on them (they were almost 11 so we trusted them with the real ones).  It would crush a kid to "unask" so just go with two.  It's more common than you'd think.

We're planning on having two ringbearers.  I had just figured that one of them would carry each "ring" (I'm not giving them the real ones.)

I think you should have two. And I disagree with your fi. I don't think little boys really care one way or the other if someone else does it with them. The fact that they get to carry their aunt and uncle's rings (fake or real) is super cool right?
