So, you plan to use some little kids to play some roles on your wedding ceremony such as flower and rings bearer? Here is some things to note.
Who to choose:
The flower and ring bearer usually 4-8 years old. Candidates to choose are those that are guaranteed can follow any direction, feel comfortable even in the crowd (even when parents are not with them). Friendly, happy smile, and ready to make you a star at the altar in all conditions.
What to do:
Ring bearer mostly boys, although this time, the girls began to be asked too. Their job is to bring the wedding rings for the bride and groom, who tied ribbon above the tiny pads. Their steps should be followed by the flower girl whose job is to spread flower petals along the path traversed by the bride.
What they wear:
Usually the flower girl wearing a dress or skirt and ring bearer wearing shorts with knee-high socks and jacket which is commonly referred as the Eton Suit. But this time, whatever may be worn during age-appropriate and fit the theme of your wedding, kind of dresses, overalls, or any sailor shirt is okay.
How:
Include these children in training so that they can train their part and feel comfortable at the location. Before the event started, make sure everyone who’s involved to help you know the location of toilet. The other thing, make sure the seating position of their parents are located nearby the street so that they can see their parents’ faces and feel calm when walking escort you down the aisle.
If they freak
Pass the escorting bride plan and let them sit with their parents during the ceremony. Even children who successfully accompany the bride to the altar in the end have to sit with their parents, rather than remain standing at the altar.
In addition to flower petals
Not only the flower petals that can be carried by the flower girl. You can change the flower petals with other objects that are not less pleasant as:

– Waving hands to the guest
Some unforgettable stories
