Choosing Colors for Flower Girl Dresses

 |  Published in Wedding Party Clothing


There are many things to decide when you are planning your wedding, but wedding flower girl dresses are one of those details that can often be overlooked until the last minute. When you consider your dresses for your flower girls you will need to think first about colors. There will not be many colors available at the last minute so your first inclination might be to go with black and white dresses. However, there are many ups and downs to choosing white dresses for your flower girls.

First, think about the age of your flower girls. If you are going with girls of a very young age, say under the age of five, you will definitely want to reconsider using white dresses. White stains very easily and is hard to clean. If the child gets anything on the dress it will be impossible to get it out, and the dress will not be reusable. However, if the flower girl is an older child this may not be a very big problem. It also makes a difference as to what material the dress is made out of. Some stain resistant materials make very good white flower girl dresses.

There are many other colors you might consider for your flower girl dresses other than white. Of course, you want your flower girls’ dresses to match with the rest of the color scheme for your wedding. However, if you can possibly get away with it a nice pink, even the palest pink, would work well for younger children. The youngest child might spill punch on their dress, but if it is pink punch it will not really show on a pink dress. If the punch will be yellow or another color, try to choose that color for your dress. The cake and the punch are the two things you really have to worry about. After all, you do not want your wedding pictures ruined by stains on your flower girls dresses!
