Last minute help - flower girl baskets

GreatNewHites, on September 1, 2016 at 4:51 AM Posted in Planning 0 16

Well I remembered to order flower petals from the florist but forgot to order anything to put them in. My wedding is Saturday so I think I'm going to have to go to a store at some point during our trip across the country. Is the only option David's Bridal? Anyone use something other than baskets?

    You can also find baskets at Michaels, JoAnn Fabrics, and AC Moore. Plus they usually have coupons

    Hobby lobby but if you've never been there set your mind that you will buy just that cause it's HUGE and you can go crazy with doubt if you look around too much... seriously it's massive and so many beautiful things.

    Craft stores are good, think outside basket. Depending on your wedding theme/ style you could do a bucket, or hat or something. And congrats, Happy Saturday!

    Just remember one thing... I was fully planning on having my flower girl go down the aisle gently tossing beautiful petals and envisioned myself gracefully walking through them and having a beautiful movie-esque moment until, my best friend mentioned that in her experience being in 9 weddings, MH at 4 of them, it never looks as awesome as you imagine. She pointed out that basically you are wearing a very large broom and petals will get dragged along with your dress if you have even a hint of a train, then at the end of the ceremony when you turn around, the petals will not-so-gracefully fall from under your dress like a dustpan. If I change my mind again and stick with the flower girl throwing petals, I will have her throw them to the sides of the aisle, not straight down the middle

    Haha I never thought of the broom thing! Thanks for all the pointers! I delegated a Michaels trip to a family member for tomorrow but I may hit the dollar store and Walmart in the meantime!
