Ring Bearer/Flower Girl

[KyleandTricia]

I have two little cousins who are both absolutely adorable. We want to have the younger one be a flower girl and the older one to be in charge of carrying the rings. However, she's a really girly girl so I want her to still be able to carry flowers. I'm going to give each of them a mini version of my bouquet to carry but I'm trying to figure out how to have her carry the rings as well.

I was thinking of maybe a little wooden chest or just a smaller pillow so that she could carry the rings in one hand and the flowers in the other. Does anyone have any ideas of how she might carry the rings in just one hand? thanks!

Why don't you let the older one carry a "pomander" similar to what you see here:

THEN--at the top of the pomander, tye an extra ribbon, with the rings attached. That way, she still carries your flowers, and the rings will be attached to the ribbon, sitting on the top of the pomander.

Actually, the ring bearer at my wedding and a lot I have been to, didn't even carry the "real" rings. They carried fake ones and then the BM and/or MOH had the rings at the altar.

But, if you still want her to carry the rings, you can have the one carrying the rings tie them around the base of the bouquet. I photographed a wedding this summer where the girl was wanting to carry her Grandmother's rosary and she just tied it to the base of the bouquet. It worked out great. Kinda like this. . .

(The pearls are what held the bouquet together and then they just wrapped the rosary around the base. You could use something like that or use ribbon and tie the rings on there).

What great ideas! I can't believe I didn't think of tying the rings directly to the bouquet. :rolleyes:
Thanks!
