FH and I don't know anyone with kids appropriate age to be our flower girl or ring bearer. We don't want to incorporate animals into the wedding. Is there anyone out there who isn't having a flower girl/ring bearer? Or any alternative ideas that don't involve animals? Thank you!

    It's not obligatory for every wedding to have a FG or RB. Just have the BM hold onto the rings.

    We're having a 10 year old junior bridesmaid who will carry a sterling silver rose that holds the rings in the center of her flowers. It's beautiful and not childish. She's excited to be dressed like the other bridesmaids and still have an important job.

    Dont have any. It is actually very common now for them not to be used in weddings

    We're not having any. It's not a requirement

    Put an ad on Craigslist.

    Skip them. I think they are really only common as a way to include children from the families.

    Even with a ring bearer, usually the best man carries the actual wedding rings
