    Junior Bridesmaid. Way too old for a flower girl.

    I made my middle daughter a "bridal attendant" basically, she helps me with my train/veil, holds my bouquet while i am at thr alter, etc... FH & I have six kids combined (3 that are his, 3 that are mine) so it was so hard trying to find them all jobs to do! You can also make her an usher! Good luck!

    @Nancy I wasn't aware there were age limits for flower girls.

    Maybe ask her to do a reading during the ceremony?

    She sounds like the perfect age for a ring bearer. Best wishes!

    Usher? Ring bearer? I think she can be a FG if she wants to.

    My brother will be 11 when I get married and I'm just having him be part of my wedding party. You can do whatever works for you! I would say just so bridesmaid or junior bridesmaid

    Junior Bridesmaid for sure! She will remember for the rest of her life that she participated in your wedding.

    I am having my 11 year old niece be a Jr. Bridesmaid and hand out bubbles before the ceremony.

    I just saw an article where the flower girl was the bride's grandmother so I don't think it'd be out of line to have her as a flower girl or a junior bridesmaid. I'd veto personal attendant, sounds honorary but is actually just crap jobs.

    I think it would be good to have her co-flower girl with your 1 year old (2 at the time of your wedding?) niece who will need help down the aisle.

    Ring bear or Jr. Bridesmaid would both be great also!

    I didn't know Jr. Bridesmaids were a thing until recently. I'd say if you're close then do it, if not have her hand out programs or something.

    Junior Bridesmaid or have her direct guests to the guestbook if you have one as they walk into the reception/ceremony.

    I recently saw a wedding where the flower girl was a teenager. They changed the title to "Flower Maid" which I loved.

    Yep, junior bridesmaid. FH has an 11 year old and she is thrilled to have the title! So thrilled that when we were in Davids Bridal last year she made note of, and mentioned, that DB doesn't carry or sell on their website Jr. Bridesmaid robes.

    Or depending on your wedding she could be an alter server or acolyte and do a reading
