So I was planning to have my niece (age 3.5 by time of wedding) and nephew (age 6 by time of wedding) be my flower girl and ring bearer! I never actually asked them but my mom told my sister and my sister was talking to the kids about it. When describing it to them, my nephew said "...but I like flowers!" My sister raises her kids fairly gender neutral and the fact that he said that got me thinking that assigning the roles of flower girl and ring bearer to specific genders is a bit old school!
My only concern is that I do trust my nephew with the rings and not my niece. What do you all think of getting him a basket with flowers too, but also finding a way to securely put the ring box in the basket too? Or should a GM just carry the rings? Anyone else do something similar to this or have any ideas? TIA!
