  Other than members of the wedding party, readers, ushers, or singers, there really aren't any other "real" roles.  You don't need to include everyone. Just being a guest is an honor and includes people. You could get them corsages and bouts if you want them to stand out a little. 

  What did you think would happen if you walked up to a group of internet strangers and told them to get shoehorned by their lady doc?~StageManager14

  [QUOTE]I have a very large family and if we choose to include all of my Sister/Brother-in-Laws along with my Fiance's sisters/in-laws in the wedding party - we will have a 25+ person procession - which is just too much! We have thought to pare it down to just siblings...but I don't want anyone to feel excluded. What are some suggestions to include additional family members in the ceremony, but not have them walk down the aisle in the traditional "wedding party" way? It is a Jewish wedding and not everyone is Jewish - so hebrew readings & other prayers seem a bit forced. Help! Thanks!!

  Just have them as guests.  You don't have to include all the sibling in-laws in your wedding party or have them do readings.
