Your flower girl is naturally the cutest little thing in your entourage (aside from the ring bearer), and no doubt she’ll even be more adorable if she isn’t fidgeting or pulling on her dress before the walk; while this is a cute sight, it can easily affect a young child’s finicky mood, causing her to throw tantrums at the least desirable moment. A flower girl’s dress should be built for comfort and style, especially if you’re pairing it with a theme or a season. Make sure that your flower girl gets the most out of the experience by choosing a dress which considers her comfort and personality as a first priority.

Sometimes the size of the entourage may be more of a problem for the bride than the groom. Normally, you’d let one groom escort a bridesmaid down the aisle. But if your fiancé insists on having the entire boy’s club (including a few close cousins) to serve as groomsmen, you have your work cut out for you, especially if you yourself have problems with sparing on your own entourage. While there is no stone-set rule which prescribes that you should have a certain number of attendants for your wedding, think first of the consequences of having one too many groomsmen before you make your decision.

To be sure, a ring bearer adds a distinct cute factor in any wedding (including yours, no less). But even if you are fortunate enough to have a dozen adorable young nephews to choose from (this may be more of a problem than a gift, though, since you get to pick your ‘favorite’ nephew among the bunch), your ring bearer should first be up to the huge responsibility of carrying the wedding rings down the aisle, even if the rings are fake. For a young boy, a four-hour ceremony and a mere thirty paces can be an eternity, which means that there are plenty of opportunities for self-preoccupation. Even though a little playfulness wouldn’t hurt (boys will be boys), make sure that your ring bearer is mature enough to take on such a pivotal role in your wedding ceremony.

Sometimes there are so many emotions involved prior to a wedding, that the actual event seems more of an anticlimax. Think about the exhausting tasks of choosing for a theme, arranging for the venue, checking in on the cake, the bridal dress, the accommodations, the flowers… and of course that dilemma concerning the bridal dress. Sure, you may think that the bridesmaid should pay her own way for the honor of being a part of your big day, but if you’ve served as bridesmaid in someone else’s wedding, the thought of shelling out a hefty amount on a dress which you may or may not like (not to mention that you’ll probably get to wear it only once) should cause you to shower some sympathy on your girl friends.

Don’t you just love the way a ring bearer looks as he walks down the aisle, in his little formal suit which reminds you more of a miniaturized groom more than anything else? Boys will be boys, and chances are the little man can’t help but fidget and pick at his clothing during the entire ceremony. While this may be a darling picture for you, for the ring bearer, your choice of clothing may be a chore to wear if the suit’s fabric, style and fit are not comfortable. So the next time you think about dressing up your ring bearer in a darling suit, consider these tips so he’ll have as pleasant an experience as yours (well, almost).
