Choosing the Colors, Lengths & Styles of your Flower Girl Dresses

For years, the color of a flower girl's dress was white or ivory.  Typically very understated, and more of a dressy dress than anything.  In today's world of what seems to be unlimited color selections that rule no longer "rules"!  Brides today can express themselves in whatever way fits what they have in mind.

 

 A few key points to keep in mind are.......

 

 Choose colors that compliment your over-all theme.  That doesn't mean they have to be the same as the bridesmaids dresses, it means you

want colors that compliment one another.  That can mean that the flower girls can wear a "pop" of color that accents all the other colors, or you can use a sash or headpiece with complimentary colors.  Try to imagine how those colors are going to look together in a picture.  For instance, if your color scheme includes, let's say peach.......there's nothing that says the flower girls sashes could be turquoise for contrast, or even dark orange to add some "zing" to those pictures.

Choose the length according to their ages.  If you've chosen toddlers, you'd do well to stay away from floor length dresses, because they're just more apt to trip on them than older girls.  If you're having junior brides maids, they open up a world of possibilities when it comes to length.  Just keep in mind their body frames and comfort levels before you choose the dress.  It might be a good time to consult with the mother, or if they're old enough, the girls themselves.  At Adorable Baby Clothing, most of the dresses range from infant sizes to a girl's 12 or 14, so you can create uniformity in style, but choose colors to delineate the ages.



 
 Choose a style that compliments your own dress.  There have been many weddings where the flower girls were dressed in what appeared to be a mini version of the bride's dress.  My personal opinion is, that this is your day......you deserve to stand out, and be recognized for it.  Although there's no set rule for the style of the flower girl dresses, why not let them express their "cuteness" in their own way, and become that special compliment to you. 

At Adorable Baby Clothing, you'll find a large variety of styles, colors, sizes and fabrics.  Virtually all them give you the ability to either choose the color of the dress, and/or sash and flower embellishments.  Each one is carefully crafted here in the USA, and you'll even find crinoline slips sewn in to each skirt to help retain their fullness while they're being worn.  We invite you to come and see for yourself, what a wonderful selection you'll find, and at such reasonable prices.
