Who pays for the flower girl dress?

Us or the mother of the girl?


And what is the average price one spends on a flower girl dress?

The mother of the girl. If you can afford to pay for it, it's a nice gesture.
If you order one in a salon it can be pretty expensive. I found some online for my flower girls that are $40. In my optinion that's a perfect price. I don't want my brothers to pay too much money for dresses their daughter's will only wear once.

Who pays for the flower girl dress?

I would think the mother of the girl. I'm planning to ask my cousin's stepdaughter, who I have a very close relationship with. Before I ask her, though, I am going to ask her mother to make sure she is okay with it. If she isn't comfortable with the cost related to the job (they are also going to be flying in from Texas), I will offer to pay for the dress myself. I've seen them online between $50-$100. Seems pretty reasonable to me!

Who pays for the flower girl dress?

I really love the dresses on Etsy but they're about $100 and I didn't want the mother (it's FH best friend's daughter) thinking I was crazy!

But she did tell me -what ever you want us to spend- but still you never know what she really thinks... I was considering paying for some of it.

Also, remember that the flower girl will need shoes too! That's another expense! I'm going to try to keep everything together under $100, which I think is reasonable.

Who pays for the flower girl dress?

I had my 3 year old cousin as my flower girl, of course I asked my aunt first. She paid for the dress, but we worked together to find it. We found it on http://www.flowergirldressforless.com/ and we were pleased the the prices and quality of dress!

Re: Who pays for the flower girl dress?

We paid for our flower girl's dress & shoes, because we knew money was tight for them. We found a beautiful dress in Macys and I paid $26 on sale and bought shoes in payless.

Who pays for the flower girl dress?

I'm planning on paying for it. Her mom is a BM, which is already an expense. The dress I want is about $75--I'd like to try to take the burden of any extra expenses away from her

Re: Who pays for the flower girl dress?

We got the flower girl dresses at Burlington Coat Factory for $17 each. My cousin's daughter's are twins (one of which is my goddaughter). I am having both of them in the wedding. Their mother, my cousin, is also a BM. I was going to buy the dresses for them but my mom did. They were such a GREAT price and they had a huge selection!!

Who pays for the flower girl dress?

We are springing for the girls dresses. I ordered 1 dress from flowergirldressesforless.com for $44 just to see the quality. They get rave reviews online and on their FB page, so I figured I'd give it a shot. When it arrives I'll let you know if it was a good choice.

Who pays for the flower girl dress?

it really depends on what the mother is willing to pay and what you are asking for.
i offered to pay for my FG's dress but her mom found one before i could.

If you are asking for a crazy expensive dress then you should either pay for some of it or all.

Who pays for the flower girl dress?

Just an FYI, the dress I ordered for $44 dollars from flowergirldressesforless.com arrived today and I am THRILLED with it! The quality is fantastic! It is well lined and even has an extra layer of satin lining in between the crinoline and their legs, so it won't bother them. I also ordered a little piece of jewelry that I'm happy with. Definitely check them out. This is the dress that I ordered, but I left off the sash because I ordered ones from the bridal salon to match the bridesmaids dresses. Just wanted to share!

I think it depends on her parents financial situation- but normally they pay for it.
