It kills me that someone would actually be influenced on this very important question, but I WAS asked…. so here is my answer.

What ever you want!  I have had brides who only have children in their wedding party, and some mix it up with both but who could exclude someone close to them?  I DON’T think that all all the flower girl dresses  have to match, pick a style which is more appropriate to their age – or mix it up for something different.

Here are quite a number of flower girl dresses we made for a wedding party and flanked, on either side, are the junior bridesmaids in Navy and White with Hot Pink Sashes.

Another wedding we recently did was for a Jewish Wedding held in New York. Except for us adding long sleeves (3/4 sleeves actually) to the flower girl dresses, this bride chose different styles for the Jr. Bridesmaids and the flower girl dresses, but used ivory and light gray (platinum) sashes.

This customer needed a flower girl dress in a hurry for her granddaughter in a pageant just 5 days away! This adorable combination of sprite green, hot pink and ivory silk encrusted with sequins and two silk flowers in the back was whipped up in just a day and sent along the way!  This is one photo I am REALLY going to look forward to seeing right away and put it in our RAVES GALLERY!

I might add here, that we have “been crowned” the winner in National Titles quite a number of times!

My favorite quote is on the wall, getting more soiled with each passing year.  Sometimes I use this quote for the mothers of our flower girl’s or mothers of the brides or sometimes to the bride herself. “It’s not a coronation, its a wedding.”

Think of it.
Its your wedding and the flower girl’s mom is taking over your wedding.  OR
The bride (also known as your sister in-law to be) is out of control.       OR
Your mother has gone ga-ga over the plans and you are about to lose it.

Repeat the following message:
“It’s not a coronation, its a wedding.”  And, if you don’t see the humor in that statement, call me.

Just friendly advice from a flower girl dress designer.

“The wedding was back in June, but I just wanted to send you some pictures and thank you all so much for the beautiful dresses! All the flower girls looked absolutely beautiful and adorable. The colors and quality of the dresses were just outstanding. I looked around at a lot of different dresses and makers, but couldn’t find anything matching the wonderful style and quality of your dresses. Thank you also for your catch that the mother’s had mis-measured!! You were very patient, and thanks to you, they all fit perfectly!”
