Asking flower girls today!!!!

Well, i'm asking the parents if they CAN be flower girls lol.

One of my cousins is having a grad party later and everyone is going to be there. I figured this would be the best time to take the 2 sets of parents aside to ask if their daughter (1 from each) can be a flower girl. I don't want to ask or rather tell the kids yet cuz i don't want it to seem like i'm taking away from my other cousins graduation.

I'm thinking of asking the parents if FH and i can come by their house at another time to ask the kids. I figured this will also give me time to get them something nice.

Does this sound like a good idea?

Oh, these 2 sets of parents aren't the parents of the girl whose grad party it is.

I'm nervous for some reason lol.

Exciting! I think it's a great idea to run it by the parents first and then another day make a big deal with the girls.

That sounds perfect! I was so excited when we did this and we asked the parents first too. Then since when we asked the kids it was around christmas we got them ornaments and these cute cards and they were so excited, good luck!!

Asking the kids is SO MUCH FUN b/c they are so excited and the parents are so excited.

I wanted to cry when I asked the mom of the girl that I babysit if she could be FG, it was so nice!

Re: Asking flower girls today!!!!

that sounds great!!! I actually asked my flower girl and ring bearer- (my aunt and uncle's kids) if they would be in our wedding at our engagement party.. and in a funny turn of events.. my other uncle asked me the same day if I would be the godmother of his newborn !!!! I was soooooooo surprised and excited at the same time!! :) I think that would be perfect if you ask them at the party,, good luck!!:)
