the cute factor…<br />

Flower girls are an adorable addition<br />

to your bridal party.<br />

Here are some little tips for keeping your flower girl (and her<br />

parents) happy…<br />

Whilst you’ll no doubt want your flower girls to look a<br />

certain way, it’s hugely important to make sure they’re comfortable.<br />

So, consider how you can achieve hair and make-up styles in the<br />

least invasive ways possible.<br />

If you’re going to be incorporating a floral bouquet and head<br />

piece into your flower girl’s outfit, make sure it’s small in size and<br />

light in weight.<br />

Keep dress lengths safe and sensible. Long dresses can cause<br />

tripping hazards, so keep hems high – about ankle height.<br />

When it comes to footwear, make sure shoes are not too tight<br />

fitting. It’s a long day of standing and dancing for everyone, but<br />

especially your flower girl.<br />

Flower girl trends do come and go<br />

but certain styles are timeless…<br />

Floral.<br />

Floral dresses stay especially true to the theme.<br />

Whether printed or applique, a floral flower<br />

girl’s dress is one of the most appropriate styles<br />

that you could possibly pick.<br />

Tiered skirts.<br />

Few styles of flower girl dresses are as adorable<br />

as those that have tiered skirts. The top half<br />

of the dress can be left comfortable and simple,<br />

leaving the tiered skirt, often in tulle, to do<br />

the talking.<br />

Pastel colours.<br />

The flower girl will likely spend a fair bit of time<br />

stood next to the bride. So a pastel coloured<br />

dress is an effective way to contrast against a<br />

white bridal gown. Not to mention, the same<br />

pastel tones can be used throughout the rest of<br />

your wedding styling for optimum effectiveness.<br />

Bows.<br />

Bows, positioned either on the front or the<br />

back of the dress, add a lovely bit of detail. So<br />

much so, additional items such as jewellery, are<br />

barely necessary.<br />
