What Is a Junior Groomsman?

With KIKI AND JOJO Kids Couture Boys’ Suits

When you plan a wedding, you think groomsmen, bridesmaids, and the flower girl. There is another special role you may love: the Junior Groomsman. He adds heart to the lineup, and the right suit helps him look confident from aisle to dance floor.

Who Is Considered a Junior Groomsman?

A Junior Groomsman is usually a boy between 8 and 16 years old. He is a little older than a ring bearer and not quite a full groomsman yet. Most families choose a younger brother, cousin, nephew, or close family friend of the groom.

What Does a Junior Groomsman Do?

  • Stand with the wedding party. He joins the groomsmen so the ceremony feels complete.
  • Assist the older groomsmen. He can carry small items, help guide guests, or pitch in when asked.
  • Honor the relationship. Including him shows the groom values younger family members and wants them close on the day.

How Should a Junior Groomsman Dress?

The goal is polished and age-appropriate.

  • Mini suit sets. A tailored two- or three-piece suit that mirrors the adult party.
  • Comfort first. Choose breathable fabrics, soft linings, and adjustable waistbands for growing boys.
  • Classic accessories. A bow tie, tie, or boutonnière adds a formal finish without fuss.

✨ KIKI AND JOJO Boys’ Tailored Suit Sets are created for this role. Slim fit, wrinkle resistant, and timeless in photos, with kid-smart comfort that lasts all day.

 

Junior Groomsman vs. Ring Bearer

  • Ring bearer: typically 3 to 8 years old and carries the rings down the aisle.
  • Junior groomsman: typically 8 to 16 years old and stands with the groomsmen in a more grown-up role.
Together they create a memorable, multi-generational moment in your wedding party.
