Yeah, I wouldn’t like this either.
Your mother walking her down the aisle is better. The whole first look thing with a 12yo nephew is definitely weird. I have seen some first looks with dad and it is sweet but a nephew is not the same as a dad. You should ask your son how involved he wants to be. Is he 12 turning 13? My middle school son would not want to do this at all! |

Honestly, the fact that you think I'm not real makes me more proud of myself lol. But you should probably get out more. |

| First look pictures should be bride and groom only. It’s weird and a little creepy that someone would want to include a 12 year old. |

You're correct, I don't believe that someone who had a baby at 16 went on to attend a TT college and then a TT law school to be a successful biglaw associate at 28, but is still so poor with money management that she plans to go into debt for her sister's wedding. What can I say. |

I googled "big law attorney teen mom" and found you (there seems to be only one). If you are the woman in the article, you have much to be proud of, and I stand corrected. I still don't think you should spend 20k on your sister's wedding. |

| He is YOUR son and you have every right to do whatever feels right to you for your minor child. You can tell her that you feel this is inappropriate and while standing in for his late relative can be an honor for an adult, it can be a emotional burden for a tween. She can't decide it for him because you are alive and his mom/legal guardian. |

The first look seems a bit specialized for anyone besides the husband
The first dance would be with her husband no? And then the second with her dad traditional (your son)? I personally find it weird the mother is alive and the 12 year old and not mother would give her away - seems super patriarchal but I guess those are weddings |

| Yeah - the first look is supposed to be with the groom. |

Because the first look is a romantic moment between bride and groom. It’s disturbing to have an aunt do it with her pre teen nephew. |

+1. A 12 year old is still a child. I'd make him a groomsman, jr. groomsman and let mom walk her down the aisle. I've never heard of a "First Look" so I won't even comment on that nonsense. |
