Wedding Party

Flower girls/Junior Bridesmaid Etc...

Hey Knotties,
My fiancé and I are trying to determine our wedding party. We have our adult bridesmaids (3) and groomsmen(4) chosen and we really want to include the younger members of our families. Here is where we are not sure what to do.

These are their ages as of our wedding date (9/13/14). I have two nieces who are 9 and 6 and a nephew who is 8. My FI has three little girl cousins who are 11, 9, and 7. How do we include them all? They are all eager to be a part of the wedding but we haven't told them yay or nay on anything yet.

I was thinking of making all the 9 years and above junior bridesmaids and then my 6 year old niece and his 7 year old little cousin flower girls and my 8 year old nephew our ring bearer. I know we can do what we want and it's not going to ultimately matter but just wondering if that sounds about reasonable. This would give us 6 bridesmaids (adult and junior), 4 groomsmen, 1 ring bearer, and 2 flower girls.

I appreciate the help!

Re: Flower girls/Junior Bridesmaid Etc...

  • I would do exactly as you have planned if you both really want to include them all in your wedding.

    However I would drop the "junior" from the title.  There is no point separating them from the rest of the bridesmaids because there really is no difference since all BMs have to do is buy the dress and show up on your wedding day with a smile on their face.

  • Yeah I just wrote junior to post in context that they were a younger group of ladies than my other 3 bridesmaids who are 23+ in age.

  • Drop the Jr. (as you indicated you will be doing) and go ahead with your plan.  As long as both you and FI are in agreement there is nothing wrong with what your planning.
  • Your plan sounds fine.  Just don't call any of your attendants "junior" bridesmaids or groomsmen.
  • Assuming they are all just "bridesmaids" your plan sounds great.
    Alternatively, you could have your niece be your bridesmaid and his nieces could be his groomsmaids and stand on his side. That would kind of depend on if they'd rather stand with their cousin, or if they'd rather stand next to the princess.
