1.) Junior Bridesmaid/Flower Girl
2.) Ring Bearer
Traditionally, the ring bearer carries the rings on a pillow. Your little man will love having a responsibility and he’ll also enjoy being suited up, just like the big guys.
3.) Usher/Hostess
Here is another role for older kids. Your ushers are going to escort or guide guests to their seats. Female guests should be escorted by the arm. Your hostess is going to greet guest upon arrival for the ceremony and reception. Your hostess can also pass out programs. If you have a seating table, your hostess can also man the table and answer any questions guests may have about seating. The usher and hostess roles are a great way to incorporate older nieces and nephews or kids of close friends, as well.
4.) Dance Fever
Everyone knows the newly married couple’s first dance is the highlight of the reception, but what if you decided to have some fun with it? Let your littlest guests in on the action by letting them do a mock first dance. Mr. and Mrs. can still do their dance first, but afterwards, invite the kids onto the dance floor to rock out to the song you selected. Of course, this works best with an upbeat song.
5.) Little Messengers
So there you have it!
