May I have a wedding with no bridesmaids or groomsmen?

[WF_Chu]

Hello,

I’d like to know if there’s anything wrong with not having a bridesmaid and the best man at a Catholic wedding? I’d like to have children in the procession instead, but is that acceptable by the Catholic Church for the wedding?

Thanks!
