My fiance has triplet cousins who are adorable and I would love to include them in our wedding, just can't think of where to squeeze them in! My nephew and niece are my ring bearer and flower girl, and I do not want more than that! Also, I don't want junior bridesmaids of groomsmen. They are 7 years old, 2 girls and 1 boy. I am going to have them pass out the programs but will still like to find a way to have them walk down the isle. Any ideas?

I don't understand... if you want them to walk down the aisle then they would be jr. wedding party members, there's no other traditional wedding party position since ring bearer and flower girl are already taken.
If you want to get creative you can always invent something for them to do during the ceremony. But I think walking down the aisle would be inappropriate unless they were in the bridal party. And you said 'jr. bridesmaids of groomsmen', but there's no rule that because they are his family members that they have to be on 'his' side... they can be on your side.

I have seven kids coming out in my wedding I'm being critized by a few but it's ok, it's my Wedding.
I have two flower girls, the ring bearer, a little girl and a little boy who are going to take to the alter the pillows my fiancee will be kneeling down on. I also have another little girl and a little boy who will be helping me with my train and will be dressed just like my fiancee and I.

If you are going to have candles that need to be lit you could have them do that. in my wedding my husbands nieces walked down the isle in front of the flower girl and then when they got to the end i had an adult help them light the candles. i know that it seems like alot of work for 7 yr olds but they can do it.

They could be Acolytes. They light the candles for you. My husband and I have 4 children between us (I have 2 and he has 2). 2 of the boys were Acolytes. 1 of the boys was the ring bearer and our daughter was the flower girl. We also included all of them when we lit our unity candle. They lit the candle with us since we were all now family

I think you should have the girl be another flower girl. I'm having two in my wedding and they have matching gowns.
For the boys...they can help with the train. Or before you come out, they can role an aisle runner down the aisle for you to walk down. Or, this may be cute...give them little trumpets (the boys) and have the girl in the middle. They can blow the trumpets, and the girl can say "Stand up for the bride"....or something like that :)

do you have a long train they can help you with? or candles to light? If all else fails, don't give them a title. Just throw them down the aisle. It's your wedding, who cares!

At seven, I don't think they care about the wedding. It's your day.
If you must, dress them up and have them stand at the entrance and great people.

If you're having a Catholic wedding, you can have them bring up the gifts.

Why not make them ushers? They could escort family members to their seats...
