nephews

Man, good luck with the pumpkin thing. FI and I are currently trying to convince our moms that baking ten cakes to use at the wedding in the two days before it happens is a great idea, and we are meeting great skepticism on the mom front. I still think it's a great idea and it will work out, and FI is getting more and more set on it, but we will see what the parental units think.

So, you still didn't answer the thing about the 1 year old kid.And also, I will have been engaged for 22 months by the time I get married, and I already wish I hadn't waited that long.  I've spent the last 10 months doing...nothing.And also again, please don't come back here whining about how to kick someone out of your wedding party because you asked them way too early.  Because we'll all say told ya so.  And also again again, this made my brain hurt.  It's too late.

mrshoward (I'm using that liberally since you won't be one for almost 2 years), you're nuts. Do not have that many kids. Children do not make good ushers, at any age. Don't do it. Do not choose anyone for your bridal party until the calendar year you plan to get married. Say NO to red wagons in satin with tiny ring bearers. Mini grooms are just F-ing creepy. So basically No. To all of the above. Just No.

Sorry J&K. Missed your quesiton. She is 5 months pregnant now and they did the ultra sound last week and he's CLEARLY (he showed us everything) a little boy! lol. Nick helped raise his nephews so he absolutely will not budge when it comes to them. DOnt' worry. You won't hear any complaining. I'm not one of those that's afraid to say something i'm thinking. I promise! I have no issues telling someone they're out. It'll suck but if you don't act like a true friend then you don't get the perks of being a good friend IMO. PS. Why is everyone so worried about my spelling and punctuation? Ya'll can tell what it says. It's 12:30 in the morning where i'm at and i've been studying all day! come on?

Your WP is going to be a nightmare with all those kids in it. Do yourself a favor and have two max.

MrsHoward11

I'm thinking 3 max. Absolutely can't cut it down more than that but I do agree it would most likely be a disaster with all those kids.

I thought having 4 kids in my wedding was a lot, but wow 9 kids...I had 1 ring bearer and 3 flower girls. You are not obligated to have every nephew in the wedding.  I also think 5, 7, and 11 are a little young for ushers.

A) Please don't drag ANYBODY down the aisle. Just because they're family doesn't mean they have to be in your wedding. C) Wait a bit to pick your bridal party. Who I asked at 9 months out was not the same people I wanted at 5 months out. Things change. Two years is a LONG time.

Not only is the wagon thing tacky, more importantly it's DANGEROUS.  SS should be called on any parents who would allow an infant to be dragged down the aisle in a wagon.  I'm putting this in my trapper keeper under "reasons an IQ test should be given to breeders."

Oh, and I forgot: D) I judge people who use poor grammar.

Hold up hold up HOLD UP.  Your ring bearer is still in the uterus?  Awesome. 

DevonStiles

Didn't you know, Heels? Picking your BP in-utero is the latest fad. Duh.

Sounds like the next TV reality show.  Brides look at ultrasound pics to figure out who's going to be ring bearer on their spay-shul day.

Your WP is going to be a nightmare with all those kids in it. Do yourself a favor and have two max. Listen to Ang. She is wise.

MrsHoward11

okay. i've cut it down. Nick's youngest nephew will be the RB, along with Leland(the baby).did my math and the baby (which yes he's still in uterus) will be 20 months by that time. SInce he is our godson we want him in it. both his parents are in it too. my little cousin will be the FG. only 3 kids now. I thought about the kids and I agree. Too much stress! Won't need the wagon cause he'll be walking. didn't do my math before.
