And the flower girl carried…

When it comes to flower girl dresses, the choices are fairly few. You’ve got the fluffy, full skirted white dress, or a similar style in a color that coordinates with your chosen wedding hues and shades. So unless you plan to make you own (always a fabulous option in my book), it seems you’re somewhat limited in what your little lady will wear.
But, there isn’t anything that says she has to carry a basket full of petals down the aisle! Perhaps she shouldn’t carry one because it would be silly (if rose petals aren’t allowed in the aisle of your church, for example). So here is your chance to really get creative. Some of our favorite ideas can be found below.
From Better Homes and Gardens
Here is a little something your little someone can hold with one or both hands, or even wrap around her wrist. Perfect for the tiniest of flower girls.
From Reigning Gifts
Use with a real candle or a battery powered one, depending on the maturity of you flower girl. This would work wonderfully in a rustic setting or in the evening.
From Australia Entertains
Fabulous for an afternoon or outdoor gala, spring or summer. The fabulous thing about this number is that it can be use in many styles: rustic, Asian influence, elegant, classic, modern, and more.
From White Aisle
Paint your monogram on a fan and send your flower girl down the aisle casually holding this little pretty. If she is shy she my try to cover her face, which could either make for some cute pictures or a flower girl who can’t see where she’s going!
And a few more ideas:
-a Bible, cross, or some other significant religious symbol
-a single stem of a flower in your bouquet
-a candle, if she is old enough and you use a wax drip protector
