The flower girl is a big part of the wedding ceremony. Try going back to a wedding scene you saw recently if you're new to this and don't know what the job is all about. You can remember the sweet, adorable little girl who scattered flower petals on the aisle of the wedding while carrying the bride to the entire crowd. That's flower girl.

The role of the flower girl at the wedding ceremony is not complicated because she is normally a very young girl. That doesn't make it any less relevant, however. In addition to the bride, she is the one who can win thehearts of everyone and even snatch a few smiles. She walks before the bride, welcoming her to the ceremony, holding a basket with flower petals (or other imaginative alternatives).Right after her partner, the ring bearer or page boy, she walks. She uses a white or ivory look-a-like bride Dress most of the time, but depending on the wedding's theme, which  can be easily changed.

Types of dresses a flower girl wears

Yeah, it's quite a fact that flower girl dresses are beautiful. But that doesn't mean all flower girls' dresses are going to look at the wedding part of it. Here's everything you need to know about choosing a dress for your bridal party's youngest participants, from how to dress Flower Girls to what to look for and what to stop.

1. Dresses for flower girls don't have to be white. 

The flower girl wears white usually, but you don't feel like you have to restrict yourself to ivory, white, or diamonds. Consider a flower girl dress that suits or is accentuated with pink or blue if you are wearing a pastel coloured wedding gown.

2. Consider the Wedding Style & Venue 

Start with what you know about your wedding venue and wedding style when it comes to how to pick dresses for flower girls. You'll be looking for lighter fabrics, prints (there are some super cool ones in our flower girl dress gallery!) and plain silhouettes if your reception is going to be in a rustic chic barn and your ceremony will be outdoors in summertime. On the flip side, by looking for flower girl dress ideas that include longer dresses, specifics such as sashes and sequins and streamlined fabrics in white and ivory, you'll want to match a more upscale venue and formal wedding theme. So when you start to find out what to wear at your wedding for flower girls look for clothes that will make your room play up.

3. Take the season into account.

The weather and time of the year have a big influence on the style of the flower girl's outfit. If your wedding date is spring/summer, the better option will be short sleeve dress or T-length dress, and if it is fall/winter, your flower girl's long sleeve or long dress style will suit the best. Also, take into account the season's colours and fabrics and most importantly, your flower girl's comfort. For warm-weather weddings, stick with short sleeves and open-toed shoes, and suggest adding tights or sweaters for cold-weather weddings to the wardrobe. That way, during the day, she won't be too hot or cold.

4. Planning on her developing into it. 

Don't fret about having the right match when buying a flower girl outfit. Nothing frumpy or bloated should be worn by the flower girl, but form-fitting gowns also feel too restricting. Save the changes for the bridesmaids and let her wear the dress as it comes, she's going to look just as lovely! However, bear in mind that young kids grow really fast. Consider going one size up to account for development if you order the dress a year or two in advance.

5.Choose the right length for her 

Yes, length is another aspect that you should remember when selecting a dress for a flower girl. Either floor-length or T- length is the length. Make sure that your flower girl does not fall over if you are going for a long dress. Please take the age and height of your girls when selecting a dress length into account. To get the best fit, we will suggest that you compare the height and length (shoulder to hem) of your girl to the size chart. Most dresses for flower girls are either floor length or tea length (falling a few inches under the knee). With tea-length skirts, younger girls could be fairer because they will not drag on the ground and produce a tripping hazard. On the other hand, floor-length dresses appear to look more formal and elegant, and may be most appropriate for older girls. Consider the neckline's length as well. Gowns with high necklines avoid wardrobe mishaps better-especially with younger kids.

6. The Perfect fit is not even necessary 

Flower girl fittings are a little different from gowns for weddings and bridesmaids, and that's a good thing for you. While your bridal dress needs to exactly suit your body's form and the hem needs to be just right, you can be more flexible with the little ones.  Fluid soft silk dresses can skim loosely and don't worry too much about the line of the hem, as it's okay for flower girls to get the skirt off the ground a little bit, even to the length of their ankles or ballerina.

7. Comfort is paramount 

The last thing you want is to throw a tantrum on your wedding day for the little one because her dress is itchy or uncomfortable - so before buying, make sure she's happy with anything from fit to fabric. Listen to her if she has any grievances, and do your best to fix them. This may mean settling for a dress that isn't your first choice for a flower girl, but it will be worth it in the long run.
