Grandpa as Ring-Bearer-Bearer?

It's a little bit early to be deciding this, but my Grandpa asked so I'd like to give him an answer.

He asked if my son (Brady) will be ring bearer at the wedding. I said probably not, as he'll only be 21 months at the time and not really able to do it. I was just planning to carry him down the aisle with me. So Grandpa asked if he could carry Brady and the rings down the aisle to us, and then either pass him over to us or hold him during the vows if he's fussy or squirmy on the day.

I can't see any way that could be a problem, but I have an unfortunate blindspot to glaringly obvious mistakes sometimes! So can you troubleshoot for me, WW? Would this be ok?

    I would totally do it! My grandma is one of my flower girls. If my grandpa were here, he'd be a ring bearer.

    This is too cute!!! FSIL just had a baby, he'll be 9 months old at the wedding. I wonder if FFIL would want to be the ring bearer, bearer!
