Wedding Party Dilemma...Help!

Wedding Party Dilemma...Help!

So we're having a relatively small wedding at a restaurant with a 15 minute ceremony. I'm having my sister as MOH and FH is having his bro as BM. That's it.

Now FH has a niece and nephew (kids of BM) that are 6 and 3 and adorable. His whole family want to use them as FG & RB. I have 2 nieces & 2 nephews, both 16 (girls) & 13 (boys). I'd feel really strange to use his family but not use mine.
I know they're cute & adorable and everybody will fawn over them all, but using all will def be too much. How can I use his fam but not mine.

What would you do???

That's a tough situation. I am not having any children in the wedding for this reason. It would be way too hard to choose and not have any hurt feelings.

just say no to all
say ur are trying to make the ceremony focused all on u and ur FH and dont want a long precessional

my fam also was pushing for a bigger wedding party but I made it clear that its not what I want, I just kept my ground

Say no to all. You cant have one family and not the other. Easier to keep it small and simple

Was in a similar situation...just chose not to have any kids involved in the ceremony.

They're invited to the wedding, just not in the BP.
