A Tennessee couple Tanner and Lyndsey Raby decided to have their four grandmothers as flowers girls at their wedding ceremony.\"\"<\/p>\n

The four lovely women graced the ceremony that took place on September 22, 2019 at Ococee Crest in Benton, Tennessee.<\/p>\n

They included the bride\u2019s 90-year-old great-grandmother, Kathleen Brown; the groom\u2019s 70-year-old grandmother, Joyce Raby; the bride\u2019s 76-year-old grandmother, and Wanda Grant; the bride\u2019s 72-year-old grandmother, Betty Brown.\"\"<\/p>\n

In an interview with HuffPost, the bride said that as soon as her now-husband popped the question, she knew she wanted her grandmothers involved in the big day.<\/p>\n

Mrs Raby added that she decided to incorporate the grandmothers after seeing a similar idea on Pinterest.<\/p>\n

The four grandmothers looked adorable in matching light blue lace jackets and ankle-length dresses.<\/p>\n

The bride said, “It took us a while to find the right dress, they were divas about it.”<\/p>\n

They also carried little white bags filled with white rose petals to scatter down the aisle at the ceremony. The little bags looked unique with a personalised touch written, “Here comes the bride.”\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Nicole Caho their photographer while sharing one of the photos on her Instagram page said, \u201cI have seen a lot of cute flower girls in my day, but these four gals take the cake.\u201d<\/p>\n

Caho added, \u201cTheir energy all day was that of a little girl who is in the same position and they had so much fun all day being such a big part of Lyndsey’s day and sharing the spotlight with her.”<\/p>\n

While the grandmothers were shy on the dance floor, Mrs Raby said they were not shy about walking down the aisle or posing for pictures.\"\"<\/p>\n

She added, \u201cI felt so blessed to have them all here so I wanted them to be involved too. I do believe they were more excited than my bridesmaids.”<\/p>\n

The bride further encouraged other engaged couples to give their grandparents roles in the wedding party.<\/p>\n

She said, \u201cIt means so much to them and it will mean so much more to you.\u201d<\/p>\n
