Most brides ask their younger nieces, cousins or even siblings to be their flower girls. This is one fun adventure since they are usually quite young. So, no competition for you. Just cuteness overload. Make sure they look as stylish as you! Here’s what’s trending for the young ones.

Coloured waistbands

If you want the girls’ dresses to be white, why not add a splash of colour that ties in with the scheme? Waistbands are in, and the bow at the back is still a favourite.

 

Mullet tutus

How pretty is this? Ballerina meets modern. We love the fun feel it adds.

 

Sequins

Shine bright like a diamond with sequined dresses. Little girls love them (and grown-ups do too).

 

Open back

If you want your flower girls to look super stylish, go for open back designs. This will complete the theme nicely if your dress has one too.

 

Tea length

This is a great solution to prevent kids from tripping over long dresses on the aisle. Still elegant, just a tad more practical.

The bridal procession do not often get more attention than the bride, but this wedding’s flower girls were exceptional and truly attention-worthy. Lyndsey Raby and her new husband, Tanner, felt so privileged to have their grandmothers present at their Tennesee wedding ceremony that they went a step further and asked them to be the flower girls.

“I knew as soon as I was engaged, I wanted to involve my grandmothers,” Lyndsey told the Huffington Post.

The beaming bunch included Tanner’s gran Joyce Raby (70), Lyndsey’s two grandmothers, Betty Brown (72) and Wanda Grant (76), and even her great-grandmother 90-year-old Kathleen Brown.

“I do believe they were more excited than my bridesmaids,” Lyndsey added.

These matriarchs are an integral part of both Lyndsey and Tanner’s families and have a great influence on their lives. Lyndsey said that she felt honoured to have them at the wedding and encourages other couples to do the same. “I felt so blessed to have them all here so I wanted them to be involved.”

Traditionally, the flower girls at the wedding are the cousins or nieces of the couple, and mostly they are little children. Of course, there’s no reason why the bride can’t skip a few generations! What a special moment.
