toddlers dress for wedding

There are some lovely dresses in John Lewis, reduced to clear , including a bridesmaid dress.
Hope you find something.

I got a couple from ebay once. They were lovely.

If you google "ebay toddler flower girl dresses uk" lots of reasonable price dresses are available.

I would invest in a horseshoe/silver bell or similar as V3ra mentions.

My parents did that to spare me (and others) the stress when I was a toddler.
Still have the (lovely) photos somewhere.

I actually remember choosing the bell! I think I was 3.

Monsoon is great -but don't force a reluctant child into a dress which she hates !

Most little girls like a Princess dress 😃 why not let her choose one herself?

That pink mice dress is gorgeous isn’t it Fairislecable ?

I am very tempted by it especially as it’s been reduced !
I do love their clothes but I can’t always justify the price for the little time they are worn.

Tell me about it. Quite frankly we just want her to enjoy it and lots of family looking forward to meeting her. Just thought something simple and light because she never stands still. Will look on the sites you suggested Thanks.

Here's some ideas. I don't know when the wedding is, but there are some simple white summer dresses around now, a few in the sale. I think you might want avoid her looking too party or weddingy.

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!

Yes my three over the years did the same. Much more relaxed, and they loved giving the horseshoes.

Oh! I am sucked into that website now!

Look at this one with little mice on:

This one - with flowers for a flower girl!

Oh, I remember when 3 year old DD was bridesmaid to her cousin in her homemade dress, she was so happy 😀

However, if she hadn't wanted to wear it, she would have dug her heels in!

My friend has this same issue, her daughter left the house in t shirt, leggings a tutu and wellies

She did decide she wanted the dress on later so maybe just keep her flowergirl dress available lol

Other than that, let her choose something herself is the best way

Oh I don't miss that stage lol

I thought this was a very sweet dress (and in the sale):

But you could let her choose one herself, my nearly 3 year old DGD is very insistent on what she wants and likes to be included in the selection.

I would find 3 and only let her choose from those.

Thankyou for all your input. perhaps I worded badly. she is a very high spirited little girl and nobody would dream of making her do anything she was not happy with. Our side of the family is very small so they were trying to include us. If she wants to join in she will. I really was looking for ideas on a little dress she would be comfortable in for the day.

to cloud

Honestly, I can type coherently. Looks not, but I can.

Yes she did say that didn't she.

Please don't allow actually post cloud judgement.

There were a couple of lovely ones in JoJo Maman Bébé; they did hae pretty sprigs of flowers on though, which would be fine for a flower girl.

Joules - Peruvian dress, white with flowers

Could be that the child does not want to wear a DRESS of any sort. Lot of youngs ters of that age decide they do not like dresses.

Yes she did say that didn't she.

The OP did say ‘so she could join in if she wants to’ so its not as though it’s obligatory

A two or three year old having a tantrum because they don't want to do or wear something is a sight to behold!
I'm sure the bride would want to avoid a Thunderous Threes meltdown in the middle of the ceremony so let her choose her own pretty dress and, if she doesn't want to be flower girl, so be it.

I hope they can get a refund on the dress.

I would stick a flower in her hair and leave it at that. 🌼
