Flower girl dress

Eva L., on October 2, 2019 at 5:28 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 13
Hello there,

What's the etiquette regarding who buys the flower girl dress, do I have to buy it or their parents has to?

When she should get the dress? My wedding is March 28th,She is going to be 12 1/2 by the time the wedding is going to happen, and I'm worry that she will grow and her dress won't fit if we get it now.

Also, can the flower girl wear other color than white?

Thank you

    I bought our flower girl's dress, but let the flower girl & her mom pick it out (I gave them 5 options).

    I think it's a nice gesture for you to buy her dress, but it's not required. I would wait until a few months depending on where you're looking at dresses. If you're going to buy it from a department store then you don't need a lot of time, if you're getting it online you'll want more time. She can wear whatever you want! Since she's 12, she probably will have an opinion on what she likes. I think it would be good if you took her out shopping to pick something out togehter Smiley smile take her mom/parent with if you come to the decision that they are paying. Hope that helps!

    I bought my flower girls dress from Amazon and if it doesn't fit we will just send it back and get a different size

    She can wear any color 👗that you want her to.

    It may be better for her to be a Jr. Bridesmaid at 12.5 though.

    My 🌺🙇‍♀️‘s Mom purchased her 👗. I did find the most affordable one for the one that I wanted her to wear though.

    I would like for her to have a say in the dress since she is 12 and with this age comes a lot of self esteem and I want her to feel comfortable. I wish I could go shopping with her, sadly she lives on a different state.

    We are buying the flower girl dresses. They are going to be blue or silver/gray. This might sound selfish but I want to be the only one in white lol.

    I pretty much picked out my flower girls dresses. It was after I found my dress so I knew what type of wedding vibe I was going with. I picked out my niece dress since she lives out of state. She ended up loving it! She wants to wear it all the time! And then my fiancé’s niece came with me to pick out her dress. I gave her 3 choices and she ended up loving my favorite. She came out of the fitting room glowing. I decided that I wanted them in more of a light pinkish color dress. I will put a picture in so you see the color and that is the dresses that they are going to wear. They are so cute in them!

    I bought my flower girls' dresses but they are also my nieces so I thought it would be a sweet thing to do but they can buy the dress too. It could also be one of your wedding colors other than white
