Not Jr Bridesmaid

Patty, on October 27, 2019 at 6:43 PM Posted in Etiquette and Advice 0 3
We don’t have any close family with flower-girl-age girls, so we are planning to ask friends that have two girls. The older of the two is a bit too old for flower girl duties, but I’m not keen on the whole Junior Bridesmaid thing. So I’m wondering if anyone has used another role/title - something like “mini attendant”? I’ve heard of a “page” that holds the brides train, but that seems to be more boy-ish (maybe there’s a girl version?) We’re thinking she could help the littles down the aisle if needed, maybe hold a “here comes the bride” sign, and she’s a great all around “helper” in any situation.

All in all, anyone have thoughts for how to title this role in the program?

    I had my 13 year old female niece as my ring bearer. I don’t think there needs to be specific genders, especially when we are talking about kids. Kids just want to be included. Also my 10 year old niece was my flower girl, maybe a littler older than most but she didn’t mind! I just put her in a simpler flower girl dress that was more age appropriate. I think holding a dress is perfect for any kid, boy or girl

    We're having my two nieces as our "flower girls". One will be 11 and the other will be 7. Haven't figured out the details, but I'm planning on having the younger one as the actual flower girl either with petals or a sign and the other as a "ring bearer" to help the younger one walk down the aisle (she has a disability so she gets a little wobbly sometimes lol). Regardless of what they end up doing, they'll both be called "flower girls", which I don't think really matters since I'm not planning on having programs or anything.
