Kids in the wedding

Megan, on June 30, 2019 at 7:47 PM Posted in Wedding Ceremony 0 6
So my fh has a brother who has 3 kids, a 5 year old girl, a 3 year old boy and less than 6 month old boy. ( We are a few years out from the wedding so I'm not super worried about the one being so young lol) Naturally with this being his neice and nephews, I wanted to put them in the wedding as the flower girl and ring bearers. My fh also has a step brother who has two girls, 6 and 9 and a boy who is 4.

I feel like having 6 kids in the car and wedding ceremony is way too many? But I don't want to leave out his step brother's kids ( honestly the step brother could probably care less it's his wife that I think would be upset)

I also wonder if it would look weird with 6 kids in the wedding and I only have a MoH and he has a best man and a groomsman?

I'm open to ideas anyone has to some how incorporate the other kids, I know they aren't blood related but don't really treat them differently than I do the other kids.

    I don’t think having 6 kids would be weird. If you give them something to do it will look cute rather than just 6 kids walking down the aisle. There is no reason I can think of where you can’t have multiple flower girls and ring bearers doing different things down the aisle. You can always talk with the families and see if they would like the kids in the wedding at all.

    Maybe have one group of kids come out before the bridesmaids with ribbons or bubbles. And then have the second group come out as they traditionally would before with flowers and the rings.

    Having all of the children included is fine. However, depending on how many years old, you can simply have the older ones take on other duties. For example, have the older boys be ushers, and the older girls hand out your wedding programs.
