Flower girl and ring bearer wedding ideas
The wedding day is near and the flower girl is ready to walk down the aisle. We share our favorite flower girl and ring bearer wedding ideas for the little cuties.
Oh the sweet little flower girls and ring bearers who bring smiles to everyone at a wedding.
Both can be precious and a little bit of precociousness just before the bride makes her entrance!
Guests watch and think, “how sweet”. In the meantime, the flower girl’s mom and the wedding director wonder if she will drop the petals too fast, too slow or even make it down the aisle!
Some flower girls do and some don’t!
Will the ring bearer run, stop mid way or make it to his destination?
Moms of these little ones will wave bribes at the end of the aisle to coerce little ones to the finish point.
Whatever the end result of their aisle walk is, it doesn’t change the meaning of the vows or the state of your marriage. But it does make for possible viral videos! We love cute little ring bearers and those sassy little flower girls!

Ring bearer wedding ideas
To go along with the princess-ness of a flower girl, you might have a ring bearer or sign bearer. Hobby Lobby has many options for those little guys.
● A Wood ring box
● Wood slice
● Ring pillow
● Sign
Ring bearers have the important responsibility to carry the wedding rings….at least they believe in their role.
Most brides know allowing a toddler or active young one to keep up with expensive and all important wedding rings is not a wise decision. In reality here’s the truth.
The pillow carries fake rings.
Ring boxes are usually empty because the best man has the rings. See them in wood and even clear glass!
Only one ring bearer in our 15 years of wedding planning has ever cried about the fake out. He was the only one that noticed.
Wedding sign ideas
When a ring bearer is not in your wedding plans, maybe you have a young one that can be a sign carrier. Someone announcing the bride is on her way is a cute role for kiddos to have.
Do you want a sign with a special message? Make your own! Start with an unfinished wood sign and then paint, paint pens or use vinyl stickers to create your design.
These little people are not a necessity at a wedding, but they do add the cuteness factor announcing the bride.
