Middle Aged Flower girl? Is that too weird?

Honestly I don't think it matters one little bit if people think it's strange. They might think "huh, that's different," but I'm sure they all love you (and your aunt) enough to not care about something so silly and small. If you want to include her in the wedding as a flower girl, go for it! I'm having one of my straight male friends as one of my "bridesmaids" and he will stand on my side of the party. My bridesmaids will do whatever they want for their hair, jewelry, shoes, etc. My mom is walking me down the aisle, and we're writing our own vows and having poetry. Your wedding is entirely YOURS to decide. People have their pets as ring bearers, why can't your aunt drop some flowers up the aisle?

That being said, if you are looking at the situation and thinking that it's strange to you and would bother you, then definitely don't do it.

I think it could be funny. Call her a Flower Woman and do whatever you want! It's your day and it is definitely something guests will remember.

Personally, I don't think it's written in stone that your flower girl has to be a toddler. I've seen around couples having their grandmas throw the petals, if there aren't any young girls in you family. For our wedding, my husband's little sister is being our flower girl & she's 7, which people think is too old sometimes. All in all, it's up to you. If she's really close to you, make her a part of your wedding, whether it's as your flower girl, or a bridesmaid or someone that just makes a loving speech. If you're not super close, keep her involved in smaller ways, like shopping & DIY stuff. This way, you could let her down gently without totally making her feel left out.

If you want her to be your "flower girl" then I don't see why not. I think it would be sweet. She doesnt have to wear the same type of dress as a little girl would (that would possibly look ridiculous), but something nice that suits her and fits the theme/colours of your wedding. I'm sure it would add a lighthearted funny element to the wedding, so why not.

I love the idea and if you want her to do it then go for it!

If you want her to be your flower girl go for it, it is your wedding. But if you are doing it because she has asked then don't. Is it weird maybe a little but a better way to look at it is different. It is not everyday you see a older lady walking down the isle as a flower girl. It would definitely be something that would stand out and everyone would always remember about your wedding. How many weddings have you been to? Is there anything that sticks out that you remember and talk about? I bet if you were to do this people will remember and talk about it for years. Let us know what you decide. Good luck!!!!

Tatiana said i could be a flower girl in her wedding--in a wagon and everything

It would only be weird if you asked her just because you can't find a traditionally aged FG or because you think it's funny. If you genuinely want her to do it then go for it.

Sure, why not.

What's an honorary bm?

I think it would be a fun quirking touch that no one else has ever had their wedding!

If you are close with her, and would like her to be one of the people escort you on your final walk as an unmarried woman, nothing should stop you from including her.

Does she have to throw flower petals? can she carry a pom or even an elegant sign that says, Here Comes The Bride?

Honestly, it doesn't seem strange to me at all. Most of the time when people have young flower girls theres an adult walking with her (because she's afraid). Just let her walk with the ring bearer. I think it would be fun!

That would be super sweet

I don't think it is weird at all. I think it is what would and will work best for you. A few weekends ago, a bride at our venue had her grand-mothers as her flowers girls because there was no one in her family that was a of the normal flower girl age. It was very sweet.

Pretty sure she was just joking lol

That is fantastic! I love it. The only way I would want a flower girl or ring bearer is if they were grown ups. Kids always mess up, even though they only had one freaking job.

Yes, yes it's weird. Don't do it.

Super weird

Yes, I think that would be 'out of the ordinary', but if you're close to this aunt, and she wants to do it, why not? It could be the next big wedding trend!

I'd totally do it. Who care what people say? As long as you're comfortable with it, and she's comfortable with it, go for it.

I wasn't having an FG bc even tho fh and I love his niece, we don't want his sister involved. And we know she'd totally make a scene. But I'm thinking of trying, and hoping his dad reigns fsil in if she gets stupid.

Um.

No. Just no.
