Custom Wedding Dresses


Traditional Flower Girl Dress

It is customary for the little angel to wear a miniature version of the bride's dress. Any white, dressy outfit will do! Make sure she's happy and comfortable, and be sure that someone has taken on the role of keeping an eye out for her during the ceremony.

Consider having her wear a dress that matches your bridesmaid dresses. She'll feel like one of the girls and mom will love it if she can wear the dress again!

Shopping for the Flower Girl Dresses

Find out the little girl's size in advance, so if you happen to see the perfect dress when you are out shopping, you can snap it up! Flower girl dresses are available at children's stores, formal dress shops (your bridal boutique should have a nice selection) as well as online stores.

If you've ordered your bridesmaid dresses from a particular designer and want the flower girl dress to match perfectly, see if they have a coordinating children's line. Little girls love to dress up and be princesses, don't forget accessories for them to, little matching satin purses, hair accessories or even a sparkly little tiara will be loved by the littlest members of your wedding party.

To save money, you might have the flower girl wear a simple dress, then tie a sash at the waist which is made out of the bridesmaid's dress material. Consider wearing a matching sash yourself to tie the entire look together!

Comfort Cues

If the flower girl is comfortable, she'll be less likely to become restless and squirmy, so try to avoid anything itchy or tight. Keep the hem length short enough that she won't trip on it. Remember how quickly little girls grow! If you order the dress too early, she may have grown out of it by the time the wedding rolls around. Order a size up if you're worried about a growth spurt.

Fabulous Fabrics

She'll be the perfect princess in a full tulle skirt with a sash that ties in the back. Look for skirts with layers of netted crinolines or hoops for a little extra pouf! Satin bodices with beaded details, embroidery and fine detailing are stunning on little girls.

Accents and Accessories

Ribbons, flowers, and lace embellishments are the perfect accessories for a flower girl. If your flower girl has similar hair to yours, consider having her hair done in an up-do that is akin to your own. Gloves, flower garlands, and lady-like jewelry bring the ensemble together.

The More the Merrier

There's no rule that says you can only have one flower girl! You can have as many as you like! Dress them in coordinating or contrasting colors for a modern, elegant look.Also little gowns for the very tiniest members of the family can be absolutely adorable, little gowns start out in size 6 months and up. Every member of the family can coordinate with the wedding party.

For example, if your wedding colors are sage green and lavender, have some of the girls wear green with lavender sashes, and some wear lavender with green sashes! They can carry matching flower girl baskets with petals in them as well. For particularly young members of you wedding party something to hold and play with is a very good idea, it can be a long time to a young person to stand up there for the ceremony, a basket of petals fills the hands with something.

Remember to have your photographer take a photo of just you and flower girl (or girls!) After all, it will make the perfect gift for her on her wedding day some day in the far-off future!
