Buy the Dress
Perhaps the most motivating part of being assigned a flower girl is
getting the chance to try on dresses. Let’s face it, the moment she
slips one on she feels like a princess. It’s up to you to decide if you
want the dress to remain white or reflect a colour associated with
your theme. Either way, what matters most is she can walk and sit
in it comfortably.
Accessorize
Want to give your flower girls an accessory they’ll adore? Fashion
your mini-me with a flower crown or bouquet similar to your exist-
ing arrangements. Better yet, give your flower girl a basket or cone
containing petals she can toss on her way down the aisle. Not a fan
of flowers? Simply accent her dress with a silk ribbon sash and hand
her a fancy wand she can carry so she isn’t empty-handed.
Assign her Duties
Without making your flower girl too nervous, make sure you take
her aside before the wedding letting her know what she has to do.
Present her with a children’s book about flower girls to get her eager
for the role and spend some time rehearsing. If you have more than
one, have them meet beforehand so they’re familiar with each other.
Once the groomsmen and bridesmaids have taken their place at the
altar, it’s their time to shine. Assign one of your maids to look after
her and tell them where to sit once their job is complete. At the end
of the day you want her to be happy!
