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

Tweet

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.  

As an added bonus, we offer Free Priority Mail shipping to anywhere within the contiguous United States.

Flower Girls - Choosing the Perfect Dress for Her

Tweet

Flower girls......who doesn't love them!  This is a special element to any wedding that brings the "ooo's and aww's" out, and a heart warming touch to the bridal party.  Choosing what she'll wear doesn't have to be difficult either....if you've chosen the right retailer!  At Adorable Baby Clothing, we offer some of the loveliest dresses, constructed with amazing details, high quality fabrics, and one of the largest array of sizes you'll find anywhere.  So we're confident when we say, we can dress them "picture perfect" for that special occasion.  

Whether you're having a traditional wedding, or one with a more contemporary theme, you want your flower girl to stand out in her starring role, but be comfortable in the dress she'll be wearing.  Keeping her age, size and height in mind, choose a dress that not only compliments your theme, but is age appropriate for her.  

Comfort -- Elements of the dress itself are important.  You need to know the dress is going to be comfortable, and that at the end of the wedding she's not going to be begging to take it off.  The flower girl dresses you'll find at Adorable Baby Clothing, have taken all that in consideration, from the types of fabrics, to the ever important construction details, to the sizing.  

• You won't get a dress that's scratchy; 
• you won't get a dress that's skimpy on details; and 
• you most certainly won't get poor quality!  

Each dress is designed for style, but made to wear.   

• Fabric -- The fabric is as important as the style too.  Depending on the climate where your wedding will be, and whether it's an outdoor wedding and reception, or indoor, you have to keep those details in mind when selecting the dress.  A nice element that can be added to virtually any dress, is a bolero style jacket that can be slipped over the dress if it gets chilly.  Our fabrics are all blends so they'll 
• "move" with the little ones, 
• hold their shape really well, and 
• they're more resistant to wrinkling.  

Natural fibers are great, but on an occasion like this, you want her to look as good at the end, as she did when she walked down your aisle, and the cost factor can be significant.  Even the Shantung Silk fabrics are amazingly affordable, but give the look of the real thing.

Style -- Whether you're going to dress your flower girl as a "mini you", or choose something that is uniquely for her, keep the length of the dress and her age in mind.  The younger the flower girl, the safer you'll be with a tea-length or shorter dress.   Many brides choose flower girl dresses that are complimentary to their over-all theme, but there's really no rule that says you have to.  The flower girl can wear virtually anything you like, and sometimes a contrasting style adds that perfect 

"pop" to those ever important pictures.

Color --  Again, there is no rule about the color of a flower girl's dress.  Most brides seem to prefer white or ivory, but that shouldn't stop you from expressing your own preferences when choosing the perfect dress for your little ones.  At Adorable Baby Clothing, you'll find a wide variety of dresses that can even be customized to fit into the color scheme you've chosen.  Remember though.....adding that little touch of color doesn't have to be just a sash or flowers......it can be the entire dress if you're comfortable with that.
