I am use next script for bridge vr0 and wlan0:

kldload -v ng_eiface ng_ether ng_bridge
ngctl mkpeer . eiface hook ether
ifconfig ngeth0 ether 00:40:63:c1:87:02
ngctl mkpeer ngeth0: bridge ether link0
ngctl name ngeth0:ether br0
ngctl connect wlan0: br0: lower link1
ngctl msg wlan0: setpromisc 1
ngctl msg wlan0: setautosrc 0
ngctl connect vr0: br0: lower link2
ngctl msg vr0: setpromisc 1
ngctl msg vr0: setautosrc 0
