flower girl basketsThe wedding procession is the time when all the bride and groom’s best friends and close family members walk down the aisle. The ring bearer and flower girl are perhaps the cutest members of this procession, as they are usually younger boys and girls who look adorable in formal wear. All eyes will be on the cute flower girl as she throws flower petals down the aisle, so it’s important that her dress and accessories coordinate with the rest of the wedding decor.

You can find any cute white dress for the flower girl to wear, along with a colored sash that matches the colors of the bridesmaids’ dresses. You should also pay attention to the details of the flower girl basket. You may want to find one that is trimmed with details that are similar to the rest of your decor, mimicking decorative fabrics like chiffon and lace. Make sure to find one that is big enough to fit enough flower petals to last the flower girl the whole way down the aisle. You can either use fresh flower petals or, if you’re worried about them wilting, realistic silk flower petals.
