Older Flower girls - help!

Have you looked into maybe getting the older girls a Junior Bridesmaid dress. These might accommodate not only their age but size better than a flower girl dress.

They don't need to be labeled "flower girl dresses." Any dress in the color you designate will work. I would check out regular department stores like Nordstrom or Macy's.

Daughter had two FG's, ages 4 & 10, so they cover your girls' age span. Their dresses were from David's; they were simple tea-length dresses with full tulle skirts, and were only $39 (https://www.davidsbridal.com/Product_flower-girl-dress-with-tulle-and-ribbon-waist-op218_flower-girl-dresses). She specifically chose them because they were matching dresses available in the size range she needed. (They also ordered the fabric sash with the big bow. I think they only come in one-size, and the older girl's was really tight. I ended up pinning in closed with large safety pins underneath the bow so she could breathe. It probably would have been better and less expensive if we'd made their sashes rather than buy them from DB.) The girls looked adorable and loved their dresses. And, the older one was the most awesome FG! The little one really didn't have a clue what was going on, threw a huge fit at the rehearsal, and slept through the entire reception. If they want to be FG's, I think the older two will have a blast and the little ones can just be along for the ride, if that better suits them. Good luck!

I don’t think 10 is too old at all, especially if she is excited! My flower girl will be 7, but I’m not a fan of the typical poofy FG dress, so will be looking at junior bridesmaid dresses as well as dresses from local department stores. It certainly doesn’t need to be labeled as a FG dress.

I agree with PPs that they are not too old. I had 3 flower girls and they were 7, 9, and 11. Their grandmother actually made their dresses for them by using ballet leotards and tulle.

Hey!!! Have you found dresses for all of your flower girls yet? 😃
