That's lovely when children can contribute to a wedding. When I was married (quite simply myself) my oldest little brother carried the guitar, and my youngest little brother was the ring bearer. They were scarcely tall enough to be seen in the pictures of the wedding itself. Now they are hitting their forties and both are taller than me now, of course, but I love to look at my album and see these two tops of little brown heads.
