Young groomsmen?

Its your day if you want the younger ones GO FOR IT! fh brother is 15 and will probably stand with him.

We are only having our kids and my son will be 15.

There is no problem having a young groomsmen or bridesmaids they are just called junior groomsmen and junior bridesmaids. It is very common now of days to have one or two young juniors in a wedding. If you are ok with it then who cares on how other people veiw it. I have a junior bridesmaid who is 14 and a junior groomsmen whos is 13. No big deal to me.

Thanks, I appreciate all of your feedback. I think it should be okay, I just feel a little weird about it. Mainly because these two young boys will be walking my bridesmaids down the aisle, and not another junior bridesmaid. I think it will be okay though. I think I really just wanted to hear from other people that it didn't sound weird and hearing from you all that you're doing it too is nice. It will definitely be interesting seeing my 12-year-old godson walking arm-in-arm with my 27-year-old best friend.

I don't see the issue. I think it would be kind of cute to see a 12 yr old escorting an adult BM. Also, the BMs and GMs can walk down individually if you/they prefer. There's no rule that says it must be pairs. Or, nothing wrong with having a wedding party with uneven sides. If there are 2 GMs and 4 BMs, each GM can have a BM on each arm walking down the aisle. Whatever you guys want!

Have him pick who he likes, but I will for warn you, his witness needs to be of legal age to sign the marriage licence.

And can you imagine how dashing those young men will look?! If you have any younger cousins attending, watch them swoon!

Same boat here!! I have 3 bridesmaids (one is maid of honor) and my hubby is just like yours. He has a good friend out of state who he can't count on to be there for wedding, he has a friend that he doesn't like but tolerates so he only has one person to stand next to him; his lil brother who will be 13 when we wed, and he's very short ha ha. I have no idea what I'm goin' to do because I would like for us to have an even wedding party so the pictures don't look odd.

Again, thank you all! I can't believe how much better I feel after reading all of your feedback! Amanda G. I am also so happy to hear that you've got a guy similar to mine. He too has a friend that he tolerates that he doesn't want in the wedding. I definitely don't want to force him to pick people just so my wedding party is even or for the pictures, but I can't help but think about that you know? I think we'll probably end up definitely using the younger boys (that was his decision) but I'll keep you posted if something changes. We have a few good laughs about it though. We've even joked about renting groomsmen for the wedding!!! Only kidding though, of course.

This has been great help! My fiance is the same - doesn't have too many close friends...but another problem is that I have two boys, 6 and 10 and the 6 year old will be the ring bearer and I was trying to find something for my 10 year old so that he is part of the ceremony. My fiance is talking about having my 10 year old be his best man. I think that's great but I'm not sure if he's too young. My MOH is my sister so he'd be walking with her.
