Kids and Weddings!

Of course we all love to see adorable, well behaved children in a wedding party.........what's cuter than that? If you're thinking about having little ones be a part of your big day, remember the trick is SUPERVISION!
~Flowergirls: Typically between 3 - 7 years old. A great flower girl choice is someone who is comfortable around crowds and follows direction really well.
~Ringbearers: Usually boys, but now girls are stepping in to this role also. Great walking partner for the flower girl. His job is to carry the faux rings.
~Reception: A great idea that I encourage all my clients to do, if they have a large number of children, is a "kid friendly" area. You can cover kids table in butcher paper and have crayons handy to keep them entertained. I always have a childrens buffet table filled with items that anyone would love, but especially kids........like mini cheeseburgers, fresh fish sticks, parchment cones filled with french fries and my famous mac n cheese. Children are much happier when they have a full stomach. If you're having smaller children, have your planner check into childcare for the event. Make sure they are from a reputable company and have plenty of references.
