How long before the wedding did you get your flower girl dress?

Lauren, on March 19, 2013 at 8:02 AM Posted in Planning 0 15

My flower girl is 5 years old turning 6 - She is dying to go get a dress - I know its probably not a good time because she is growing still and who knows how much she can grow in 10 months lol. I was just wondering when you ladies is a good time. because clearly I have no idea!

    I'm going this weekend for my 5 year old flower girl and our wedding is June 8th. I think I might be cutting it close but I don't think you need as much time as a bridal gown to come in. At least I hope that's the case!

    I'm going with my Maid Of Honor tonight to go look at dresses for her daughter (one of my flower girls, she's two). I found one we both like, it's at macy's. I'm hoping to have all attire for EVERYONE taken care of by the end of April. so about 2-3 months before the wedding.

    We ordered them in February and they won't be back until mid-May. Wedding is in July.

    I ordered mine about a month ago because I had to have it done in the color Apple so I had to get it ordered and shipped here in time

    FH's two nieces are our flower girls - ages 2 and 4. FSIL bought dresses for them a year ago! She tried to guess what size they would be, and then got really nervous. But they tried on the dresses Monday and they fit fine.

    Oh wow! You guys with getting the bigger dresses early I am so glad it worked out for you!

    I am going to go to davids bridal this weekend and see what they say.. I am still thinking of ordering it in September. She is tiny

    I also have my baby sister who is 8 (I know huge difference right?!?!) who is my jr. bridesmaid. We are gonna go dress shopping soon though for her and maybe get it just a little bigger - since she is a bridesmaid I think it will take longer for her dress to come in. (I think)

    September wedding and 2/3 came in a few weeks ago. FMIL wanted to be in charge of ordering them and I think she got excited... I'm a little nervous though. The one was a little big on the one girl (both are 9 yrs.) and the other was just perfect so she is not allowed to grow! Smiley smile The 3rd dress is a custom so we had to order it way in advance.

    I ordered my two off of Amazon.com around September, and my wedding is March 30th. But you don't need nearly as much time for flowergirl dress.
