That sounds like a big wedding, so the bride will want to make sure that there is enough room for each child, plus the children's parents if they will be invited. Involving 40 children may be difficult, and I'm not a wedding planner, but here are a few ideas: <ul> <li>The kids could sing during the service or they could sing at the reception.</li> <li>The children can file down the aisle after the bride's maids/flower girls and before the bride. Have the kids drop flower petals. They can file up the aisle to the front and then keep on walking around the sides and return to the back of the church again (In other words, they wouldn't stay up at the altar with the official wedding party.)</li> <li>The children can stand along both sides of the ailse (like a military honor guard) as the bride and groom exit.</li> <li>The kids could draw pictures for the bride and groom, the those pictures could be already hung up at the reception somewhere.</li> <li>The kids could be the ones who stand outside of the church and throw flower petals/bird seed/bubbles/etc.</li> <li></li> </ul><p></p> I hope these ideas give you a good place to start, and I hope your daughter has the perfect wedding! :-) Hello Carolyn,

Thank you for contacting me. That sounds like a big wedding, so the bride will want to make sure that there is enough room for each child, plus the children’s parents if they will be invited. Involving 40 children may be difficult, and I’m not a wedding planner, but here are a few ideas:

  • The kids could sing during the service or they could sing at the reception.
  • The children can file down the aisle after the bride’s maids/flower girls and before the bride. Have the kids drop flower petals. They can file up the aisle to the front and then keep on walking around the sides and return to the back of the church again (In other words, they wouldn’t stay up at the altar with the official wedding party.)
  • The children can stand along both sides of the ailse (like a military honor guard) as the bride and groom exit.
  • The kids could draw pictures for the bride and groom, the those pictures could be already hung up at the reception somewhere.
  • The kids could be the ones who stand outside of the church and throw flower petals/bird seed/bubbles/etc.

I hope these ideas give you a good place to start, and I hope your daughter has the perfect wedding! :-)

I would have gone with option B because then I would have money to go to school MORE! I love school! And I prefer a relaxed schedule - after all, I work at home, get up whenever I want, and work as much as I want (which usually translates to either 20 hours or 80 hours... depends on the week). But that's me. When will you announce it?! Sorry, off topic. I just really am eager to know! I am ITCHING to know which job you have picked!!
