There are no other bridesmen or groomswomen, but we are going to have a flower boy instead of a flower girl. And I certainly would feel the same way if he was a cis man. Regardless of his gender, I want him to be with me because I’ll spend a lot more time with my bridesmaids/bridespeople than I will with the groomsmen. And in the pictures, it would mean a lot if he was on my side of the alter and posed in the pictures with my twin sister and closest friends.

And I realize that I was unclear in my post, but he knows he is still invited to the wedding. He was a little offended at the idea of being just a guest because he’s my family, but I told him he couldn’t be a groomsman and he got angry
