Adorable Flower Girl Attire

February 20th, 2009

The flower girl is always one of the most precious parts of a wedding. When she totters down the aisle, every guest at the ceremony will smile. Make her look her most adorable by choosing very pretty flower girl attire.

Typically, the flower girl’s dress will either be in the same shade of white or ivory as the bride’s gown, or it will be in the color that the bridesmaids are wearing. If you like the idea of the white dress, you can always add a sash in the same color of the bridesmaids’ dresses to tie your bridal party together. The all-white flower girl dresses are usually the most formal, and they may have some details that are similar to the embellishments found on the bridal gown, such as lace, embroidery, or light beadwork.

For an informal spring or summer wedding, your flower girl could wear a cotton dress with a dainty floral print in your wedding colors. A sleeveless pinafore dress that buttons down the back could be worn alone for a hot summer afternoon, or with a short sleeved white blouse (with a Peter Pan collar) for a wedding closer to Easter. For a winter wedding, velvet would make a beautiful choice.

It is customary for the bride to give a special gift to her flower girl, just as she does for the rest of her bridal party. The most popular gift is flower girl jewelry. Most little girls do not own much in the way of real jewelry, so a dainty pearl pendant or a special silver bracelet will be incredible meaningful to your flower girl.

Then all that remains is to put a wreath of flowers or a fancy barrette in her hair. Hand your flower girl her basket or mini bouquet, and she will be all set to march down the aisle. Just watch the hearts melt as she does!
