Most flower girls are between the ages of 3 and 8. As a bridal attendant, the flower girl’s job is to look adorable while carrying flowers or scattering flower petals down the aisle.She is often one of the bride’s relatives.

The flower girl wears either a long or short dress that complements the dresses of the bridesmaids. Since her dress must be age-appropriate, she usually does not wear the same style as the attendants. Typically her dress is white, ivory, a pastel or another color that does not clash with the other dresses. So, for example, if the bridesmaids dresses are blue, the flower girl may wear a blue dress or a white dress with a blue sash in the fabric that matches the other dresses. The parents of the flower girl buy her outfit.
Flowers
The flower girl carries a single flower, a basket of flowers, a bouquet of flowers or a pomander, a mixture of nice-smelling substances tied together to form a ball. Alternatively, she may scatter confetti, blow bubbles or carry a wrapped candle. After the processional, a fidgety child may sit with her parents. The wedding planner should try to seat her family near the front so that she can see them and be boosted by their presence. If the girl can stand attentively, she can take her place at the altar with the other bridal attendants.
Preparation
It is a good idea for the flower girl to practice at home under adult supervision. Make this practice a game so it will be fun and praise her when she does her job well, suggests the book “Bridal Guide Magazine’s New Etiquette for Today’s Bride.”
Gift for the Flower Girl
Among suggested gifts from the bride to the flower girl are a jewelry box, a child’s purse, a necklace, earrings or a monogrammed picture frame.

There is no set number as to how many flower girls should be in a wedding. How many flower girls chosen depends on the couple’s preference and how many little girls they know that fit the role to complement their day.Flower girls date back to the Middle Ages, when young girls walked down the aisle spreading grain as a sign of hope for the bridal couple’s health and prosperity. While much about weddings has changed since that era, engaged couples still usually seek flower girls for their bridal party.

• When planning a wedding, the couple must make a number of decisions. One subject that causes a great deal of confusion is how many people to include in the wedding party. Generally, the traditional rule of thumb is to have 1 bridesmaid and 1 groomsman for every 30 to 50 guests, 1 flower girl and 1 ring bearer. But what if you have several 5 year-old nieces and a 10-year-old god-daughter? Much of that answer depends on individual preference, budget and size of the wedding.
• A flower girl is between the ages of 4 and 10. In Victorian England, all the bride’s attendants were children. If the little girl is 4 or 5 years of age, it is safe to assign this role to her because the child is more likely to be able to follow directions and handle the moment.
• Exactly how many flower girls should be in a wedding depends on the tradition followed and the couple’s tolerance for children. If the wedding is child- friendly and the couple doesn’t mind potential hiccups (tantrums, cold feet and fidgeting) during the ceremony, then it doesn’t matter if there is 1 or 5 flower girls. However, if all the little girls you know are 3 and under or you have more nieces, cousins and god-daughters than you can count, omitting the flower girl from your wedding party might not be such a bad idea to avoid excluding someone or hurting feelings.

A flower girl is a participant in a wedding procession. Typically, the flower girl walks in front of the bride during an entrance processional. She may spread flower petals on the floor before the bride or carry a bouquet of flowers. Have you purchased flower girl dresses on line before?
