Consider Fabric:
The fabric plays a crucial role in setting the tone for your flower girl’s appearance and should align with the wedding’s formality, season, and durability requirements. We provide fabric swatches so you can match them to your wedding dress and ensure the right shade. Luxurious options like satin and silk are perfect for formal autumn or winter weddings, while lightweight materials such as tulle, chiffon, and cotton offer a charming, airy look ideal for spring or summer ceremonies. Regardless of the fabric choice, prioritise comfort to ensure your flower girl can move freely throughout the day without any wardrobe mishaps.
Choose Colours
While ivory or white are traditional choices for flower girl dresses, don’t hesitate to consider other colours and gown styles. At Gilly Gray, we make our dresses in both ivory and white, sage, pink, blue and champagne and a wide range of other silk colours, and you can view the silk swatches on our product listings. If you’re open to deviating from tradition, incorporating an accent colour from your wedding palette can complement the overall theme beautifully.
