Flower Girl Dresses and Girl Dresses for Weddings
The sight of precious little girls in dresses at weddings, arranging flower petals, is one of the most far-reaching and long-lasting wedding traditions. Although the exact origin is unknown, the march of the flower girls can be traced back to ancient Roman times. As a symbolic blessing of prosperity and fertility for the couple, flower girls would carry baskets or bouquets of herbs and wheat. Throughout the Medieval Ages, flower girls often carried garlic to protect the couple from evil entities or intentions. Once the Elizabethan and Victorian Eras emerged, flower girl dresses and roles became more similar to what we see at nuptial celebrations today. In the Elizabethan Era, flower petals were scattered along the road from the bride’s house to the church by the wedding procession. Today, the most drastic change from the traditions of yesterday is the style of the dresses for flower girls. Present-day flower-girl dresses tend to follow the latest trends and offer the most popular fashion-forward designs to ensure a sweet and innocent, yet contemporary look for the flower girl.
