Hello ladies and gents. I don't know how to ask this but let's try. I don't have any girls. I only have 2 boys ages 3 and 8 but will be 4 and 9 once wedding comes around. We were thinking my youngest be the ring boy but I'm not sure what my oldest should do. The fh has a sister with 2 girls ages 6 and 8 but they won't be in my wedding due to them being well let's say stubborn. So what should I oldest boy do and what did u guy have instead of a flower girl.

    I am the opposite! I have my 2 nieces but no boys in the family.... The youngest would be one of my cousins who is in high school. We are just having 2 flower girls and are opting out of having a ring bearer as my nieces are much too young to be given the rings!

    Hi Tasha! I'm glad you feel like you have many options. You really do! Smiley star Let us know how it goes! Have you asked your boys what they would like to do?

    I thought you could also like these ideas: 5 funny ring bearers

    In these discussions, you can also see what others went for:

    Who will be your flower girls?

    How old will be your flower girls?

    How do you like the idea of asking your grandma or mom to be flower girl? Smiley winking

    I don't have any young kids in my family right now and neither does my FH. They are all atleast 10 years or older. (Too old for a "ring boy & flow girl") in my opinion.

    I have 4 first cousins aged 10-17, 2 boys and 2 girls who I am having as "ring boys" and "flower girls/junior brides maids"

    They girls will wear the same dresses as my bridesmaids and the boys will wear the same suits as the groomsmen. and carry the ring.

    I agree with Emilie and Valerie! They could both walk the rings down the aisle. And the idea of confetti is fun if your venue allows it.

    Have you talked to your boys about it? Are they both comfortable walking down the aisle at the wedding?

    I'm not sure who's walking you down the aisle but maybe your older son could walk with you on one side? Or with the groom so he feels more grown up? I've seen some weddings where the children of the bride and/or groom stand with them at the altar.

    On my side of family the youngest kid will be 2 and oldest be 14. There about 25 kids. I'm still waiting for the fh to make his list of people to invite.

    You could always switch them and have your oldest be in charge of the rings (I've seen lots of cute Pinterest photos calling older boys "ring security" so it doesn't feel so "baby-ish") and have your youngest do confetti like Em suggested

    Hi Tasha! Smiley heart I think you could have different options for the oldest boy. He could throw confettis instead of petals, you could also make him one of the groomsmen to make him feel like he has greater responsibility. You should check out Natasha's discussion and reach out:

    Children ..... or..."my vip"

    I'm sure you two could relate! Smiley smile How many kids will be at your wedding?
