I am attending a wedding and have been asked by the groom to drive his car behind the two wedding cars as not everyone in the wedding party will fit into the two wedding cars.
The trip to the church will involve taking the groom's brother and sister.
The trip to photos at the beach will involve taking the 3 bridesmaids who I wil then take to the reception.
My question is:
Should I open the car door for the kids and the bridesmaids, or just the bridesmaids or neither?
I'm thinking I should do it for everyone as a courtesy but as a wedding guest myself who is not being paid to do it, I wasn't sure of the correct etiquette as I am not a limo driver.
Thanks :D

You don't have to be paid to show good manners and kindness.

AS a courtesy, do it for everyone - the kids, because they're small and probably need assistance, the bridesmaids because they're in those foo-foo dresses that they don't want to get messed up because of pictures/wanting to look good for the wedding (plus, it's the polite thing to do!!).

Well normally a gentleman would ALWAYS open the door would they not.
You don't have to be attending a wedding to be polite. Most girls appreciate the attention even if it is the 21st century. There's nothing neanderthal about being nice.

Even though you are not getting paid to do it, it can not hurt to open the doors for them.

You should open the doors for everyone, regardless of gender or age.

Any time you are being considerate and kind I think you are practising good manners. Good for you. I think that would be fine.

I think it would be nice if you opened their doors.
