Jr Bridesmaids & the Processional?

mmmcneeley

I am having only 3 bridesmaids, and 2 Jr Bridesmaids who are only 11 years old. My fiancé however, has at least 8 guys that we want to be in the wedding (3 of those 8 will be ushers). Is it weird to have such young Jr Bridesmaids walk down the aisle with older Groomsmen whom they won't really know? I would be perfectly fine with having the 2 Jr's walk down the aisle together, but then who do the other groomsmen walk with? Can I have all in the wedding party walk down the aisle alone (1 at a time) and then have the 2 jr bridesmaids walk together? I really don't even care if there is an even number of attendants, I just don't want anyone to be uncomfortable.

Thanks!!

The age difference does not matter.  What it comes down to is what the 11 year old's are comfortable with.

I would have all the guys already up at the front at the start of the ceremony.  Then have the BMs walk down one by one.  After the ceremony, if the 11 year old's are comfortable with walking with the older GMs then that is great.  Have the the MOH and BM walk out together.  Then have two GMs walk out the 3 BMs and then have the last GM walk out the 2 Jr BMs.

If the girls are uncomfortable walking with an older GM then do as I have listed above but have the last GM walk out by himself following the 2 Jr BMs.  He could even escort an elderly member of your family if you wish.

I would guess that the 11 year olds wouldn't want to walk with the GM and vice versa. I would have them walk down together.

How are the senior bridesmaids walking down the aisle?
