I'm in need of some advice. I have 4 bridesmaids, more than I originally wanted (I had to add 2 because my fiance wanted 2 more of his friends to be groomsman). Anyway, I already picked my bridesmaids and my fiance says he doesn't have any more friends that he'd want to add. My aunt, though, is hurt that I didn't ask my 16 year old cousin to be one of my bridesmaids. I love my cousin, but I just didn't think of adding her because she would be the youngest (we'll all be around 30 for the wedding) and she doesn't know anyone else. I didn't want her to feel awkward. I'm thinking of adding her to the wedding party, but because she'll be 17 at the time of the wedding, she'll be too old to be a Flower Girl. Would making up a role for her be a good idea? Like let's say, a Flower Maiden? I do want to include her in the party and this is the best way I see how to. Does anyone think this is a good idea or does anyone have any other ideas? Thanks in advance.

I now know that wedding parties do not have to be even. My aunt has since apologized for asking me if my cousin would be a bridesmaid. I am considering asking my cousin, who has a beautiful voice, if she would be willing to sing at my wedding. Thank you again for your advice.
