Many brides are more inclined to choose older bridesmaids rather than flower girls, which often means they miss out on a childlike charm. Here is some advice on how to help your little flower girls bloom at your wedding.

Comfort is the Key: Big might be beautiful but try to keep the garland on her head and the posy in her hand

Petal Power: Some flowers are more prone to bruising under the touch of small fingers so make sure you choose closed flowers like roses and ponies that are more likely to withstand the pressure.

Robust is a Must: you have to come to terms with the fact that your flowers may end up being thrown on the ground and possibly trampled on so don’t invest a lot of money on the flowers that the little ones will carry.

The Dream Factor: Even if your wedding style is practically perfect and polished in every way, you need to allow a little bit of freedom to your flower girls to play their special role
