Tuesday, February 22nd, 2011

When the flower girl is fairly young the flower girl dresses may be the same one that is used for a confirmation. If the flower girl is very young the dress can be very cute with pink lace. If there are several flower girls then the flower girl dresses should match. Because these girls are young and generally quite short they need to have the same or similar dresses so they stand out.

They can be very simple in 2011 also. Cost will be a big factor in many weddings during 2011 so if the flower girls dresses can be worn for other events then this will popular  for weddings in 2011.

Of course the season also will dictate what the flower girl dresses will look like. In the winter or early spring they may be made from velveteen. If the wedding is around a holiday like Valentine’s Day then the dress may be white with lace trim and a bright red sash. Sashes for bridal wedding dresses, bridesmaid’s dresses and flower girl dresses will be popular in 2011. These sashes will be a departure from all white for a wedding and will add the color.
