URGENT wedding advice needed

SunnyGoldDiamonds92969, 13 December, 2019 at 21:44 Posted on Planning 0 4

Hello,

We live in the UK.We are getting married next February in walt Disney world resort in Florida. My twin 6 year old daughters will be bridesmaids. My 12 year old son wants to be a bridesmaid however we have explained to him that he cannot be a bridesmaid however we told him that we would try to find an almost identical role. Is there an almost identical role to a bridesmaid for my son??

Thanks in advance.

    I know a few brides who have had 'bridesmen' instead of 'bridesmaids'. They usually wear a suit that blends with the bridesmaids dresses and have a buttonhole with the same flowers as the bridesmaids.

    Bridesmaids are meant to be providing support to the bride - if your girls are only 6, your son's role of offering support as a 'bridesman' would then be even more important. Especially if he's good at looking after his little sisters! He can walk down the aisle with them, look after your bouquet during the ceremony, maybe be responsible for collecting any cards etc that are given to you on the day - whatever works for the type of wedding you are having. The role can be whatever you want it to be.

    The problem is my dress is inspired by Belle from beauty and the beast. The bridesmaids dresses are also inspired by belle. Therefore I don't know what I could let my son wear as a 'bridesman'????? Thanks I'm advance.

    Does it matter what he wears? As long as he’s comfortable and happy.

    Yes there is a roll, a page boy. A similar role to a bridesmaid. I was one for my uncles wedding over 40 years ago. A quick google will answer all questions, enjoy the wedding, Darren

    A pageboy is the male equivalent to young bridesmaids. He can hold a sign as he walks down the aisle or even throw the flowers (as a flower girl would do). It would be very cute.
