If your little girl has been asked to be a flower girl at a wedding, you should really try to make her understand of what an honor it is. Unfortunately, sometimes this special job can turn in to a disaster. If you and your girl are well prepared in advance it can make everything run a lot smoother. Let’s look at some suggestions.

For Mom:

-       If this is not your wedding then you will still be responsible for paying for the dress but usually the wedding couple will choose the style and color for you. Remember that this is the bride and grooms day so you should abide by their decisions.

-       Make sure that your daughter is available for all of the wedding functions. This includes pictures, rehearsal, dinner, and whatever other function she has been invited to.

-       Be well prepared so that there are no surprises. It is extremely easy for a young girl to become confused with new instructions.

-       Sometimes the wedding party can become extremely stressed. Keep that in mind if people action a bit crazy.

For Brides:

-       Keep in mind the age of the young flower girl. This is especially important when choosing the clothing she should wear.

-       Please try to keep the flower girl’s mother up to date as much as possible. This will help prevent a lot of confusion during this busy time.

-       Try to include other young people in your wedding to be around the flower girl. Having her as the only child will be extremely stressful on her and may lead to problems.

-       If you plan to take pictures of the flower girl do it early. As time passes it will become harder and harder to get and keep a smile on her face.

Try to keep things fun and entertaining and your flower girl will be one of the spotlights of the wedding.
