Baby first then marriage

[JelBel32]

I think it would be great to get a forum going for brides who were mommys first. I had my first child a year ago and hope to include her in our wedding day. I'm looking for cute suggestions on how to include my daughter at my wedding!!

Our baby will be 18 months at our wedding and i'm trying to incorporate her into the wedding as well. she will be a little too small to be a solo flower girls so we are thinking of having my Fiancee's little cousin which will be almost 5 share a basket with our baby so they can both walk down the isle. Hopefully our idea works lol.

I had two 18 month old "flower girls" at my wedding.  They were adorable!!  One was my niece and the other is practically a niece.  Their parents carried them down the aisle (the parents stood up in the wedding) and it was super cute.

 

I also photographed a wedding in April last year with a 2 year old daughter.  She was so cute and although clumsy down the aisle, it was precious.  And just having her there for fun family photos was really amazing.

Our baby will be 21 months old at our wedding but I have a 10 year old from a previous relationship so for now I think they'll be flower girls together.  Should make for a good emotional entrance.. hahaha

Katryne that'll be SO adorable!!  And it's a perfect match for walking down the aisle together.

My son will be 12 months at our wedding (in a few weeks!!). He's too little to walk but I'm hoping my cousin who is a bridesmaid will carry him. We've got some cute sandals and a linen seersucker for him.

I am 31 and not married yet.

 

My FI and I decided to have a baby first because I refuse to get pregnant after 35...that's my cut off.

 

We discussed it and looking at the time frame...I will be 32 when were married...and assuming I get pregnant right away... I would be 33 for the first.  I would def need some time to adjust and not jump right into baby 2...so who knows.  If we waited I may not want to have a 2nd. 

 

Honestly...the decision for baby first was best for us.  Plus we have the added bonus of sharing the day with her.  Also, I am def ready to have another after the wedding...so everything worked out.

My son will be 18 months...we're having him walk down the aisle with a sign that says,"Daddy, here comes your bride!" Flip it over on the way out to say "...and they lived happily ever after."

I don't see anything wrong with that

Today it's quite common situation
