Bridal Party Question(LONG) / Age for Jr BM vs Flower Girl - Does it make a difference?
Ok this might sound stupid & I know I can do whatever I want but this is my bridal party:moh & bm
3bm & 3gm ( age: 18 and up)
then.... i have
2 cousins(girls) that are 15 & 16, they're going to walk down the aisle with one 15 yr old boy in the middle (is that stupid????) my 15/16 yr old cousins are as tall as the other BM, so I'm considering them reg bridesmaids right?
they''re going to have the same dresses as the other 4......
then I have two 9 yr old cousins (girls) who are going to walk down with my 12 yr old cousin (boy)
now they're little, so im going to have them in the other dress (with straps its in my album) so i can consider them my jr bridesmaids? or are they flower girls???? because when i go on the jordan website (where i got my dresses from) it says that those dresses are flower girl dresses,,,, but im calling them JR bridesmaids.
and then flower girl & ring bearer both 5 years old,,, shes wearing a white dress...
Is their an age range or something for Flower girls vs Jr Bridesmaids? I see in some albums brides taht have 5 flower girls all dresses in white, and im sure some of them are 8 and 9.
But I want the 9 yr old ones to feel special. You know what I mean?
I'know this is so stupid probably. But its buggin me.
Thanks.

I would break it down the way you did.My JR Bridesmaid is 10 -- she will wear a similar dress to the bridesmaids
My Jr. Groomsmen is 8
My ring bearer will be 6 and flower girls 3 and almost 1
My two newphews who are 16 and 13 will be Groomsmen but will walk together!

Re: Bridal Party Question(LONG) / Age for Jr BM vs Flower Girl - Does it make a difference?
no age range do what you want.i am having 1 MOH. fh is having 4 best men - none of them are walking down the aisle, they will all be standing up there with him
THEN i'm having 2 RBs - both 3 years old. 2 FGs - one age 4 and one age 7. I am also including my two nephews as junior ushers they are 12 years old and 11 years old.
i haven't figured out if they will just walk the two FGs down the aisle; that's what i'm thinking as of now

My flower girls will be 6 and 7, I think maybe 8 would be my personal cut off for a flower girl....but it's really up to you!

I would say 9 is a little old for a flowergirl. I think around age 7 is the cutoff. And I think age 13 or 14 is the cutoff for a Jr. bridesmaid. Anything above that I would consider a bridesmaid.

OK so my jbm will be 9 or 10 I can't remember but my question is...she would look silly in the same outfit my bm's are wearing...what about a white dress with a sage bow. the dress has little spaghetti straps with pull ups. what do you think?
