Hi Everyone,
I am the oldest grandchild in my family (I'm 25) and have cousins ranging from the age of 21 to 3. There's a total of 10 cousins (but 4 cousins may not make it-- the oldest ones due to some family drama-- our mothers are not speaking.)
As the oldest, I've always felt very maternal towards my cousins but because there's so many of them, and I wanted a simple small bridal party, I've chosen not to include them in the bridal party.
That being said, I'm trying to figure out a way to involve them, especially the little ones to help them feel involved and part of my big day. I was thinking of calling them all up for a special cousins dance during the reception but am very open to suggestions.
Basically we have a very big but fractured Italian American family and I think it would mean so much to them, and to me to do something special for just them. Any ideas?
Thanks, ladies!
