Petite Participants

Put some creativity into outfitting your little ones and they’ll steal the show on the big day. By Emily Ng

It’s your wedding day, and just seconds before your ceremony begins. As the pianist plays the first notes, your flower girl takes her first step down the aisle. Not only is she adorable, her stylish outfit has the guests awing. She definitely stands out!

When it comes to dressing your flower girl and ring bearer, look to current trends for a more refreshing approach. Erika Mills, owner and designer of Petite Parfait children’s couture, offers her fresh accessory ideas: Instead of tiaras and jewels choose halos, wreaths and little flowers – there’s no cuter way to complete the whole flower girl look.
And to keep those little hands busy, Mills says to get creative.
“Flower balls, teddy bears, and faux fur muffs are all better options than traditional wicker flower baskets,” she says.

In fact, many flower girls don’t even throw flowers anymore (it can get messy). If you want to stick to tradition, consider filling a drawstring pouch with flower petals. The pouch can double as your flower girl’s purse after the ceremony. She’s guaranteed to love this idea.

As for the little guy in your wedding party, keep him looking sharp with a custom-made tuxedo and a matching handkerchief. If you want to go all out, order a matching ring pillow. Think creatively about their outfits and before you know it, you’ve got yourself one handsome little couple.
