Flower Pomander for jr bridesmaids
Aren't kids just the cutest? Including children in a wedding is both adorable and unpredictable. We all know crying ring bearer stories. Typically older kids, 5-8 years old will do better in a ceremony. Expecting a 3-4 year old to do anything is a gamble, especially in front of a crowd. Be aware of nap times, when they need to eat, and bedtimes. Involve older kids to be Jr. Bridesmaids and Groomsman, especially in new blended families. Enjoy their innocence, but don't expect them to be little adults. Most little boys at 4 don't want to hold hands with a strange little girl!!
