Wedding Planning - My wedding.

Question
Hello, and thank you for your time!

I have a bit of a dilemma! It is concerning our wedding party.

My fiance and have a Maid of Honor, and for him, his Best Man of course. Along with that, I have two bridesmaids, and he has two groomsmen. So that is 6 in total.


My problem is that I have 3 young cousins (age about 8 or 9), who though I would adore for them to be in the party, I do not like the fact that this would make an uneven amount of attendants. If they were to be in the wedding party, they would be junior bridesmaids. Do you  think it would be rude to ask them to return to their seats after they have walked down the aisle alone?

Thank you for all your help!

Answer
Hi Victoria:

We had this same dilemma recently and did in fact make all of the wedding party sit in the front row after walking down the aisle.  The bride wanted only her and her fiance to stand under the arch and so everyone else sat. Catholic weddings do this since the ceremony is quite long if they are having a mass.

I hope this helps.  Should you have any further questions, please feel free to contact me again.

Happy planning,
Wendy Wuitschick, CWP
