Dear Amy: Instead of having a traditional flower girl, we decided to have my fiancé’s cousins (who range between the ages of 3 to 6) be the “flower gremlins.”
Dear Amy: My mid-30s daughter lived with a partner for 10 years. He is a horrid and manipulative man. I accepted that as an adult she could make her own life choices, however misguided I may think they are. As a “couple,” she and her partner attended holiday gatherings at my home. About a year ago, I heard from my other daughters that she had become engaged to this man, although she never mentioned this to me.
They really wanted my 8-year-old cousin to serve as a traditional flower girl. That is what they were expecting, but they didn’t realize that my fiancé has other family members that we wanted to also be involved in our wedding. We explained to them that my cousins will still be just as involved in our wedding as the “flower gremlins.” They will still get ready with the rest of the bridal party, get a corsage/boutonnière, and take pictures with us.
