Surprise Ring Bearer

Mandi, on June 24, 2020 at 1:34 AM Posted in Wedding Ceremony 0 5
Oh COVID. You've really been terrible.


Original plan was to have 2 ring bearers walk with my Matron of Honor (their mom) down the aisle. Well, we pushed our wedding back 7 months. And she had a baby as scheduled.
It's kinda important to me to have one of the most important people in my life be in my wedding, with ya know, her important people. I adore her sons. And I want them to be a part of my wedding too. All.of them.
But how do I incorporate a 4.5 month old? [His brothers will be 5 &7]
Ideas?

    I don’t think you have to, right? I mean a 4.5 month old can’t do much. Unless the baby stays in some red wagon and the other kids pull the wagon ? Or the MOH holds the baby while the kids walk behind or besides her and then she hands off the baby to someone after

    As Melle says, a 4.5 month old is going to be really excited that they are trying to sit up on their own.

    This is a classic case of "pop the baby in a tiny tuxedo and let everyone melt*. Don't overthink it, just let the dimples and chubby cheeks do the work!

    My future SIL had a baby 3 months before my other SIL was getting married, and he wasn’t in the wedding. They put him in a really cute outfit, little bow tie and some suspenders, and just let him be. I think they’re a little too young to be part of it. That being said, that’s if the father is present and invited to the wedding. If he is in your case, is he also in the wedding? If he is not, I’d probably leave the baby with him for the ceremony and any entrances you want made into the reception. People will gush over the baby no matter what.

    I think it's really sweet you want to include everyone, even the baby! But I'd definitely ask your friend what would be easiest for her. Trying to officially incorporate a 4 and half month old into the wedding party might be way too much work for her!

    I'd also vote for a really cute outfit and some adorable wedding pictures together!
