Traditional duties of a ring bearer?

Most people pick someone much younger, and have the MOH/BM hold the rings and the pillow/box whatever is for show. its up to you! you can have her hold it for show

We won't have a ring bearer. The best man and MOH will hold the rings.

Usually the ring bearer is too young to actually hold the real rings; they're often "props." In that case, the Best Man usually has both rings in his pocket. We had our rings in a custom made box that our Best Man held, and when it was time, he untied the rings from the pillow in the box and gave them to the minister for the ring exchange. Since your ring bearer is older and responsible, it is fine to have her hold the rings, either on a pillow, or a pretty box, whatever you decide, and then hand them to your officiant for the ring exchange.

It can be however you want it, really. Often times the best man or whoever holds and passes it as ring bearers are often too young to be responsible for something so big, so then their role is really just to look cute. I think it would be totally fine for her to stand up there holding them the whole time, but if you go this way maybe put them in a basket or something instead of on a pillow so it will be easier to hold

My nephew is our ring bearer he will be 5 yrs old a few days before our wedding. He will walk down the isle with our actual rings and stand by his soon to be uncle and at the time rings are needed we will untie them..

I would have either be a junior bridesmaid or carry the rings, not both. At 13, I would have been unhappy to have carried a pillow rather than a bouquet like the other BMs.

Just have her be a junior bridesmaid, skip the ting bearer and have beat man hold the ringd

I was under the impression the ring bearer was traditionally a younger boy. If she's alsp a jr bridesmaid it may ne best to jist have her in that roll amd give the rings to the MOH or best man.

My 12 yo niece was our ringbearer and also had a reading at the very beginning of our ceremony (for our chalice lighting). After she walked down the aisle during processional, she placed the box with our rings in it on the table next to our chalice. After her reading, she sat in the front row next to my brother (her father). We gave her a wrist corsage, which she loved. She was not a junior bridesmaid though.

You do not need a ringbearer. When I was MOH for a friend, I carried her ring on my pinky finger (she has tiny fingers). Maybe ask your ringbearer if she would rather be just a junior bridesmaid and carry a bouquet and stand with you.
