Pageboy & Ring Bearer Duties

The ring bearer or wedding pageboy is at the head of the bridal party as it enters the church.

His main role is to look extremely cute and elicit squeals of adoration from his grandmother and her friends.

In his ring-bearer duties, he carries a pillow with ring or rings tied in the centre with ribbon that is attached to the pillow.

Wise heads usually place false rings on the pillow. Imagine the difficulty in prising away the rings from a squalling 5 year old if he is determined to keep them.

The ring bearer walks in front of or besides the flower girl followed by the bride, her father and her train bearers.

Once in the church and the bearer of the ring carries the pillow to the Maid of Honour and Best Man who remove the rings. His role complete, the young ring bearer reverts to his original role of looking cute.
