How young is too young?

18 is a little young, maybe if the mom walks with her but ntill they are about 4 they are a bit of a wild card

Go for it!

The thing with toddlers and younger kids is that they're often unpredictable. So if you're okay with her deciding to dart down the aisle instead of walking nicely, or dancing half way down, or whatever she decides to do, then it should be fine (and who doesn't love a tiny toddler in a big dress? Cutest ever!)

You just need to make sure someone will be at the end of the aisle who she can sit with, and someone during pictures who will chase her around when she decides she's had enough (which will happen!).

Before we pushed back the wedding, my daughter would've been 18 months. Now she'll be 2.5 and I'm expecting nothing from her other than to be there and look cute. She's walking me down, but I may end up carrying her, she's highly likely to get down and shake her booty half way down the aisle, and there's a chance she'll run, ha. But I don't care, it will be cute no matter what happens!

If they won't be able to do the walk alone or without crying they're too young. If they can't stand still at the front and be quiet for the whole ceremony, they're too young.

But I could be they wrong person to answer this because I'm against having children in a wedding party in general haha

But I can see how it would be cute, I just think it would be more of a nuisance

Munkos is right. I say go for it, as long as you're okay with all of the things she mentioned above.

My nephew and ring bearer will be almost 3 and 1/2 for my wedding, but he's sometimes shy so who knows how he'll react to a church full of people (we'll have back up plans --e.g. help from his dad-- if he freezes).

Oh, and my sister had her second child last August. Another (adorable) boy, but if she had had a girl, I would have loved for her to be my FG, walking hand in hand w/ her brother. And if that had happened, I would have had a 14 month old.

18 months is young to be by themselves because they're usually unpredictable. But maybe put her in a wagon pulled by a bridesmaid, or have a bridesmaid carry?

My nephew was my ring bearer and he was 2 and a half - and my sister/MOH had to squat and hold her arms out for him to come to her (he got stage fright). Then he stripped.

Well my niece is the flower girl and she will be 2 next year. The backup plan if she gets scared my older niece that's will be 9 will come after and hold the sign the bride is coming and if the two year old doesnt do the flowers the 9 year old will.

No i dont think it's to young when they are that young it makes the touch be more special. As well if you think it's to young than decline her being the fg

They either will or they won't, but there is no predicting or rehearsing it up to about age, oh, 21.......

My best advice; if you want to include her, plan on it, but if she doesn't want to do it when she's standing at the end of the aisle, don't make her. And let whoever is escorting her know that if she is going to be crying and fussing, she should be removed to a quiet place for everyone's (including her) happiness and a ceremony that's not interrupted.

She's way too young. Most children that age get stage fright. Also, don't make a 5 year old responsible for an 18 month old.

Also my rb are my two sons and they will be 2 and 3. i wanted to let them have their own moment together and we shall see.

I think she's too young.

My FG will be 14 months and we have a wagon for her. My RB is 5 and is going to be pulling her and her mom will be there in case she doesn't like it. She's a very happy baby in general and we are going to make it a game of throwing petals and being in the wagon. I'm honestly not too concerned and if she cries, she cries. You can't control everything.

I also want to add, wait until closer to the day. I've seen 7 year olds freak out and refuse to go, and I've seen toddlers walk the aisle like they own it.

As her personality develops you'll get an idea of what kind of experience you might have. If she can bear to be separated from mom, it might not go over well. If she enjoys an audience, she might strut her stuff.

If at 16 months she's very shy and reserved you might want to rethink it, or have MOH walk the flower girls down rather than just the two girls, so she has mom with her.

My niece will be 18 months old in my wedding next month, but she's coming down the aisle in a wagon pulled by her mother. Maybe you could do something similar?

Our youngest FG is just over 2. She'll be walking down the aisle.

I'm very laid back about it, I've bought her a dress and all that and on the day if she skips on the aisle then great, if she holds her sister's hand or if she want to walk down with someone else or not at all. I'm not bothered at all.

But we are having a lot of kids and that sort of stuff doesn't fase me at all

Lol my son was RUNNING around in his first bday. Most kids by that age are running pretty good so should be able to. She might get scared out confused but with walking with the other girl should be no problem.

My 2 nieces will be my flower girls (almost 3 and almost 4 at the time of the wedding). I'm a little worried about them being unpredictable (especially after seeing the younger one strip and run around my bridal shower), so their dads (my brothers and also groomsmen) will be walking them down. Both of my brothers LOVE that they will be walking their babies down the aisle. A very emotional moment for them.

Eh. I'm against children at and in weddings.

My flower girls will be 5 and 3 and our ring bearer will be just 1 year! However, their moms are walking ALL of them down the aisle to keep them on track and carry them if needed. Theyre our neices and nephew so it'll be nice to have them but I'm not crazy about coaxing them down the aisle or having them run crazy so we figured we could add FH's sisters into the 'party'. :-)

My nephews were our ring bearers. One is 4 and the other was 18 months at the time of our wedding. It was totally fine. My younger brother (their dad) walked down the isle with them before he came back to walk me down the isle along with my mom. Although we did not allow children at our reception, the two ring bearers and the two flower girls (both under the age of 5), were very well behaved during the ceremony. We didn't even notice they were there.

This reminds me of my pregnant friend who offered her future son's services as a ring bearer. He will be 11 months at my wedding. Do kids even walk yet at that age?? Lol I said maybe......
