toddlers dress for wedding

The message is clear, the poor mite doesn't want to do it. The parents should politely decline the flower girl role on behalf of their daughter. If the bride and groom are unhappy about it then they should grow up.!

Perhaps it’s not really the dress, it’s that she doesn’t want to do this at all but doesn’t know how to say that?

My daughter was just over 2 when my sister got married.
Instead of being included in the bridal party she had a new outfit, presented my sister with a lucky horseshoe after the ceremony, and posed for a photo.
That was quite enough involvement for her!

Isn’t this rather an ordeal for a small child who has never met any of the people involved? Do they just want her there looking cute rather than thinking about what’s best for her?

Indeed, I wondered same.

Our children were never young flower girls for the reasons you list - but I'm/we're often found to be strange.

That's a good idea Jaxjacky.

Isn't this for her parents to take care of?

I’d let her help choose a dress now that she’s happy with and can wear often before the day so it’s familiar.

maybe better is someone else takes the role.
it can hardly be her choice or willing agreement if she has never met them.
and being so young cannot really envisage it.
why is this being imposed on her.
what if she refuses plain dress.
too much pressure for no necessity.

Monsoon is good for pretty dresses that can be worn afterwards. Reasonably priced.

We bought white linen dresses with simple embroidery from Vertbaudet last year.
