Anyone with JrBMs???

I had a few questions for anyone who has JrBMs in your bridal party:

* How old are they??
* Are you getting any make-up done on them, or just hair??
* What kind of gift are you giving them??
* How involved are you having them be as far as other wedding related events (showers, etc)??

TIA

Re: Anyone with JrBMs???

my Jr BM is 12, will be 13 for the wedding

she is getting her hair done, i will let her mom decide on the makeup

she is getting the same gift as the rest of the girls

she will be part of the shower and bachelorette party (we are doing dinner and a sleepover for bachelorette so she can participate) I will prob do something else with the older BMs another day.

Re: Anyone with JrBMs???

MY cousin is my JrBM...she is going to be in 5th or 6th at the time of my wedding...i cant remember...

My Aunt is going to get her hair done and probably her makeup- I left the choice up to them.

I got her a JrBM tank top and JrBM picture frame as a WILL YOU BE MY BM gift. As for the thank you gifts I got her her DOJ , day of purse, and not sure what else.

she was at my engagement party and going to be at my shower with my aunt. I dont think she was involved in the 'planning'. But she is still a part of all the events !

Re: Anyone with JrBMs???

I had one, she was 13.
My makeup artist offered to do gloss, blush and a little mascara for her for free, so we did that.
I bought all their dresses for them, so that. As well I got them all totes with their names, I got her a jbm rhinestone tank (wholesale through my job), really cute little panty pops from VS, JBM tube socks....That's it!
She came to my shower and e-party. She's DH's little cousin, she was around a lot, just like I wanted She also came to the RD.

ETA: Her mom took care of her hair.

Re: Anyone with JrBMs???

I have a Jr bm and she will be 7 when we are married. I really wanted to get her an american girl doll but she already has one so...I really have no idea what to get her. She is fh's cousin and god daughter so we might get her a pretty bracelet or diamond studs (we spoil her). She is going to get her hair done and probably minimal make up (no air brushing for her!)

She's not involved in the planning and I am having an adults only b-party. FH and I are going to do something special with her (maybe go to an aquarium or splish splash) to celebrate on our own so she feels included.

Re: Anyone with JrBMs???

My Junior BM is 13... She is one of my students. She won't let anyone do her hair or makeup so my MOH and her mom are going to try to work on it that day. I am making a beach bag for all my girls so I am going to give her one too just with more appropriate items.

Re: Anyone with JrBMs???

My daughter and step daughter are my jr bridesmaids. They will be 13 and 10.

They are both getting their hair done but no make up, only lip gloss

I am getting them some of the same items as the other girls ( make up bags from VS, DOJ, pocket mirror and a gift box filled with chocolate covered treats). But I am also getting them a silver plated brush, comb and mirrior set with their initial on it from exscusivelyweddings.com

They will both be at my shower and if we have one RD. I take both of them with me when i go see vendors or wedding shopping. They really enjoy being involved in all of the planning. They will also help me put the weekend bags together.

Re: Anyone with JrBMs???

I have 3 - they will be 18, and 2 of them 16 at the time of the wedding. They are getting all the same presents. It's up to them if they want hair/makeup done, but I think they are all doing it.

Re: Anyone with JrBMs???

my Jr BM will be 11 for the wedding

As a present, I am going to pay for all my my bm's to have their hair done, jr bm included - and I will let her Mom decide on the makeup

I will probably get DOJ for her as a present

My jr is a diva - but I love her so, and she will be included in every way possible for the wedding (although not the B-Party for obvious reasons). She is just happy and so excited that I asked her - it was so cute!

Re: Anyone with JrBMs???

I will have one jrbm/flower girl. She will be almost nine for the wedding so i was thinking jr bm but she likes the movies where she sees the girls throwing flowers so we may have her be a combo jrbm/flower girl. She is FHs daughter so she will be involved as much as possible. I will be having her at the bridal shower. As for the bach party i like the idea someone had about a sleepover. Thats really sweet and she would like that. Maybe we´ll do a girls night in. And either before or after we´ll do a girls night out with just the big girls.

As for gifts I´m still not sure for any of my bms. i think i have to see how my budget is after booking all vendors.

Re: Anyone with JrBMs???

Forgot to comment on the hair/makeup question. I´ll probably have her go with me and the girls to do mani/pedis. The day of I will probably let her get her hair done and do lip gloss/blush and maybe mascara.

Re: Anyone with JrBMs???

My 13 year old Goddaughter will be my JBM. I plan on paying to get her hair done but will probably leave the make-up up to her mom. I don't think her mom would have a problem with it though, she wears make-up already. I might just ask her to avoid the sparkly eye shadow. She's beautiful though and really doesn't need it. As far as her gift, I don't know what I'm getting ANYONE so I have no clue!

Re: Anyone with JrBMs???

* How old are they - they were 10
* Are you getting any make-up done on them, or just hair - their mom got their hair done @ their own salon and she did their makeup as well
* What kind of gift are you giving them - got them a coach wristlist and necklaces to wear day of
* How involved are you having them be as far as other wedding related events (showers, etc) - they were involved with my shower - helped the day of set up and with gifts

Re: Anyone with JrBMs???

Re: Anyone with JrBMs???

yes i have one. she is going to be 12 years old,
no make up only getting her hair done.
Shes prety mautre for her age so i got her the same coach bag as the Bms and the same Neckless havnt decided if im going to give her the earings yet i think she might look better with just studs.

As far as her being invloved.. shes not involoved with planning. but she will attend the bridal shower and she was at the Engagment party... She lives out of state and well yeah not to much help at 12 years old.. She will come to get her nails done with us probally though...

Re: Anyone with JrBMs???

Mine is my cousin, and she's 11. The only thing that I have her doing on the day is holding a basket with ecofetti at the end of the church to throw at us, for people to take little sachets from.

I got her a bifold frame from personalization mall.com that says thank youfor being our jr bridesmaid, and also a tote that said bridesmaid and i bedazzled it a little and added the Jr. to it.
