Your Perfect Flower Girl Dresses
Janet Donahue
Love is in bloom and you are planning your wedding! The one subject you will find the least help and information on is picking your flower girl dresses. Do you want white or ivory flower girl dresses? Pink or a combination of colors?
Which styles do you choose?
Here are some typical choices for flower girl dresses:
Order them with the bride's maids dresses at the same time;
- Shop in store after store for months dragging the children and parents with you (decision-by-committee is never a good idea!);
- Forget about it until it's nearly too late, then panic and have to settle for whatever is available;
- Shop easily on line and send a message to each family telling them which style and color to order and that they need to get them ordered now - or order them yourself so you know they are ordered in time.
- Shop on line, use Tell-a-Friend to send the styles you like to the group to vote if you prefer and never have to struggle with "I don't like that!" with the child in a store.
What style flower girl dresses are there?
The A-line - a figure-flattering style that looks good on almost everybody is quickly becoming THE #1 choice this season!
- Tiny flower girls love the flower-petal filled dress. The petals in the layers of the dress reflect the colors of your wedding party on a white or ivory dress (some come in black, too). Many come with flower pins to add to the waistline. You can make these dresses uniquely your own by adding other colors to the petals in the skirt to make it perfect for your own unique wedding!
- The ballgown - which often has a "pick up skirt" to reflect this popular trend in bridal gowns. With or without the pick up effect, this dress has a fitted bodice and full, frothy skirt similar to "Cinderella".
We hope this helps you prepare for your perfect wedding day!
