January 2011 Birth Club

My friend recently asked if our dd can be the flowergirl in her wedding this April. I warned her that my dd will be 2 yrs and 3 months old and may or may not do as told the day of the wedding. She is having a 3 yr old be the ring bearer,plus size evening dresses. She assured me she understands that toddlers are unpredictable and she is fine with that. So I have a few questions:

1. Has anyone else had their LO be in a wedding? How did it go?

3. I can pick my dd's dress. Any suggestions on what type of dress would be best and where to buy a dress? I've looked at David's Bridal, but I have a hard time justifying spending $100+ on a dress my dd will wear once that she will likely find a way to ruin over the course of the day. If I do get a David's Bridal dress I'm also going to buy a white Carter's dress from Kohls which will be about $15 after my 30% off coupon. My dd can wear it to the reception or at least during dinner.

My ODS was about 18 months when he was the ring boy at a friends wedding. He was mature for his age, still is, but he did great. There were 2 flower girls too,windows 7 professional key. One about his age and one was about 3. They were so cute. One thing that helped is that DH was in the wedding. So, I stood in the back and pointed to DH and then DS walked (well, walked half way and ran the other half) to DH. I would recommend doing something like that.

We bought DS tux on ebay. I found a lady who did pageants. I think we paid maybe $25 or $30 for it.

My DD was one of 2 flower girls atmy brothers wedding this past november the other was 4yo they held the basket together and it went well. once she got down the isle though she would not stand there with the brides maids i sat in the front row so she could come sit with me. She was so cute walking down the isle saying "come on lets go". The dress i would ask about wedding colors my brothers colors were red black and white but the bride didnt want anyone else wearing white so the other flower girl wore a red dress and i found my DD a Black Dress very cute i got it at sears for 30 bucks.

KaylaK30 - Those photos are too cute!

talexis80 - Thanks for pointing me to this site,kleider abendkleider. I am surprised by how many dresses they have! Hopefully the bride likes one of these.

karlismama - The bride is putting the bridesmaids in black chiffon dresses (they can pick their style) and having each of them have a different color bouquet. She originally was going to have each bridesmaid in a different color and my dd was going to be a in a white dress with yellow accents (probably just a ribbon or flower). She changed her mind for the bridesmaids but still wants my dd in a white dress possibly with a yellow ribbon if possible. I'm trying to match fabric with the bridesmaids and get Chiffon so there is some consistency. I would try to match the brides fabric but it has embroidery on it that I don't think I can easily match. I worry that any other embroidery pattern would clash.

My twin DSs were in my sister's wedding when they were 18 months,evening gown. They were super adorable. We had them wearing knickers :) They actually did a great job and walked down the aisle (most of the way!) by themselves. But I think it helped a lot that DH, DD (3 yrs old), and I were also all in the weddingparty.

Go ahead and let your daughter do it, but at this age,http://t.2u4u.com.cn/node/2326132, I would talk to the bride first and make sure she understands that come the moment of the ceremony,http://coffeelinux.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=70349, your DD may not want to and you are not going to force it,windows 7 professional product key. I'm LO d of dreading it. She totally walks to the beat of her own drum and will not cooperate if she doesn't want to. The bride picked out a dress that was $140 from David's bridal. I told her sorry, but I just can't afford that, which she totally understood.
