Question about Jr. Bridesmaid

Hi all-

looking for some insight- Do you think it would be appropriate to have one of my Junior Bridesmaids (she will be about 13 at the time of my wedding) walk w/ one of the groomsmen?

I have a BM that dropped out so now i have an extra GM... I also have 2 Jr. BMs (10 and 13)and 1 Jr GM (9yo)...

Just inquiring because my BP is very uneven and this was a solution that came to mind..

what do you think? is she too young to walk with a GM or should she just walk w/ the other Jr BM?

That might look a little weird. Maybe if you have the groomsman escort both of them down? For some reason that would seem alot sweeter to me IMO.

I am having my Jr brides maid walk out by her self. All the other brides maids are paired up with a groomsmen.

Trust me it won't look bad.

I had two groomsmen for every one bridesmaid and then two matrons of honor and one best man. We also had two of the groomsmen walk together (DH's teenage newphew). In church they pulled my niece down in the wagon. On the way back up the aisle her dad who was GM ended up bringing her back up and that BM walked with one guy -- no one noticed. It looked good, worked for processional, recessional and announements and the pictures look great too.

I have 3 JR Bms... so I am having them walk down together... I will have an extra GM since one of my BMs dropped out as well, but I will just have one BM walk down with two GM.. lol. I don't think the guys will be too thrilled walking down with a young child... JMO.
