What can be the toughest work in a wedding? There can
be several answers but managing kids; is one of them. Wondering what the scoop
is on those cute little kids in the wedding party? Young boys can play two main
roles: ring bearer and train bearer and girls can play the role of flower girl,
ring bearer, train bearer, candle lighters etc. The children's roles are
defined as attendants if they do not have traditional assignments such as flower girl, ring bearer. We will talk about each of them elaborately on
successive blogs.
A typical breakdown for attendant ages is:
3 to 6: flower girl, ring-bearer, or train-bearer.7 to 10: carry candles in procession, carry prayer book in procession, hand out programs, hand out flowers to mothers or grandmothers, or tend guestbook.
11 to 15: junior bridesmaid or junior usher/groomsman.
At 16, the "junior" title may belittle an adolescent attendant. It
would be kinder to call him a groomsman or her a bridesmaid. These age ranges are not written in stone so feel free to adjust them to your family circumstances.
Only the role of ring-bearer carries a limit on how
many children can perform it as there are only two rings available to bear. You
may have as many flower girls, junior bridesmaids, and others as you like.
