junior bridesmaid

Child wedding helper

A junior bridesmaid is a girl in a wedding party who is too old to be a flower girl but too young to be a full bridesmaid—typically between eight and fourteen years old.

She walks in the processional, wears a dress coordinated with the bridesmaids, and stands near the bride during the ceremony: My niece was a junior bridesmaid at the wedding.
