Officiants?
Crystal, On August 29, 2019 at 22:14

Do Officiants have to be reverends or is the term "Officiant" a general term? If it is, who qualifies for an "officiant"?

Extra roles for a man who isn’t a groomsman?
Alyssa, On August 25, 2019 at 16:46

I have 2 of my friends as MCs so they feel included even though they aren’t bridesmaids. My fiancé wants to know what role a friend of his could take in to also feel included.

Flower Girl/Ring Bearer
Samantha, On August 27, 2019 at 19:40

What are the opinions on excluding a flower girl and ring bearer? I don't have many small children that would suit the role.
