Stumped on what flowers to order for your flower girls? We've got you covered! For many years, a basket full of rose petals, either fresh or fake, has been the standard for flower girls. Nowadays, more and more venues don't allow petals any longer because of the mess and cleanup involved. A sign of the times to switch things up? I think so!
Two of the other great options for your flower girls are flowers crowns (totally cute!) or pomander balls (equally as cute!). Flower crowns are meant to be worn on the girl's head of course and pomander balls are adorned with ribbons making them easy to carry down the aisle. I'm dreaming of making small, individual wreaths for girls to carry down the aisle too. Someone please indulge me!
Our bride Rachel, chose classic white spray roses and greenery for her daughters to wear on their heads and carry down the aisle.

This is a great way to add in your wedding colors too!

Many of our pomander balls are created in a foam sphere which gives them a water source, helping them to stay fresh longer. This water can also make the ball a little on the heavy side though, so for Kelly's wedding, we chose willow spheres to attach florals too, making for a lighter pomander that coordinated well with this wedding scheme!

Whichever you decide to order from your wedding florist, consider thinking outside the box with that your girls will wear down the aisle!
