Ivory dress

Becky, on April 22, 2013 at 10:27 AM Posted in Etiquette and Advice 0 26

For those of you wearing ivory dresses, is your flowergirl also wearing an ivory dress? My flowergirl is my 5-year old daughter, so I thought it would be cute for us to match. But I have had the hardest time finding cute ivory shoes for me, so I don't want to have the same problem with her shoes! Would it look better in pictures for us both to have ivory dresses, or do you think white for her would be ok?

    I'm wearing ivory and so is my flower girl. I personally think it looks better when you both match. I think we may put her in silver shoes.

    As of right now that is the plan. But it's hard finding an Ivory dress that doesn't cost an arm and a leg (I don't see a point to why FG dresses are over a 100 dollars that is just wrong!!)

    If we can't find Ivory she will be in dark brown to match her dad who is BM

    If ivory isn't going to work, I'd put her in a "color" before I'd choose white. What are the BMs wearing?

    There are so many shades of ivory I can see why this would be a challenge. David's Bridal does have some more reasonably priced FG dresses. Depending on her size she might actually fit a JB dress at David's too. That's what I chose for my 6 and 5 year olds.

    Ok, thanks everyone! Of course, she wants to wear pink, but my bridesmaids are wearing black dresses and we all will have red bouquets, so that won't work! I did find a really cute one at DB, but like the previous post said, it's like $130! I really didn't want to spend that much for her dress, but I may have to.

    My flower girls are wearing my accent color if I can't find ivory dresses. And if you can't find ivory shoes, silver/grey/pewter shoes goes with anything.

    If they are in red there were cute reasonably cheap color dresses at DB... we just can't go with it because it has small straps and we want something a little ticker for our FG in Oct

    here is the link... I believe you can change the color of the sash you could do that in ivory if you like... the dress is also available in Ivory.

    My FG is wearing a ivory dress. Maybe you can have her wear colored shoes (blush pink maybe?). That would help if you feel it would be difficult to find ivory shoes.

    I will be wearing an ivory dress but my FG's are wearing Champagne. I was having the same problem trying to find something to match and it just wasn't working so I chose Champagne instead.

    Yes. Mine is Maggie Sottero ivory which is a very white ivory. And of course, everything else is a bit yellower.

    I am wearing ivory and so are my FG's, for their shoes I am trying to find ivory shoes, if i cant then i am going to let them wear the barefoot sandals, in purple which will match my shoes i am wearing. This is my FG dress that I purchased from ebay for $18, and I must say it is just as lovely in person. The sash can be changed to match your accent color as well.
