What role can a 13 year old boy play in a ceremony??

Our latest dilemma: FH has a 13 year old male cousin whom we both very much want to include in our ceremony. However, he is too old to be a ring bearer and we think it will be weird for him to be an usher with all of FH's 28 year old friends (actually not WEIRD, but he really doesn't want him in pictures with him and his best friends). I'm considering a Junior Usher title, but i just don't know what he would do - if he'd walk down the isle, or maybe just hand out programs.... any suggestions?? Thanks!!!

Well, my 13 year old cousin is going to be my Man of Honor. (Instead of a Maid of Honor). I'm really close to him. I've known him his whole life. I think it'll be cute. He'll be in a tux standing next to 6 other bridesmaids. (Well, that is if we can even have our wedding...)

Does he have any special talents? I'm going to ask my two cousins(11 and 13) to sing and play an instrument during the ceremony. If your fiance does not want him in the pictures w/ his friends, I would not give him the title of Jr. usher. He might feel left out when the guys are all getting their pictures taken. Maybe in addtion to handing out programs he could be in charge of a guestbook at the church. Continued success to all...

You can ask him to do a reading and he can be in charge of handing out programs for you.

I agree with Heather - I think he would feel left out...I think handing out the programs and perhaps birdseed or bubbles (or whatever you plan to throw, blow, etc.) would be a nice thing to include him. You can put his name on the program too somehow by giving a job title to him...good luck!

What role can a 13 year old boy play in a ceremony??

I am having a 9 year old jr groomsman (FHs nephew) and he will be walking down 2 jr bridesmaids (FHs neice (his sister) 13 and cousin 14). We also thought about him walking down FHs mother (9 year olds grandma). I think programs and bubbles/pedals/rice/birdseed hander-outer would also be appropriate.

What role can a 13 year old boy - What we did

I had my 15 yr old godson do a reading. He was wonderful. I was so proud of him and happy that we included him that way. His 12 year old sister gave out programs and rose petals and was charged with organizing the 4 flowergirls after the ceremony. - She had a little help from their Moms with that task. They were both included in the rehearsal dinner and wore flowers that day. My parents had them ride in their limo to the reception. They loved it. Their Mom (my cousin) said they were both thrilled to be included that way.

I think doing a reading would be wonderful..you could include him in the wedding program and even get him a boutenneire. My only question and I'm sorry if it sounds rude, but why doesn't your fiancee want him in the pictures with the other groomsmen.
