How to Buy a Flower Girl Gift

What better way to show your appreciation to your flower girl than to give her something tailored to her? Long gone are the days of the traditional charm or pendant (unless that’s you’re style). If you’re getting married and want to find a great gift for your flower girl, there are a few things you’ll want to do.

Instructions

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

1. Think about the girl you are buying the gift for. What are her interests? Is she a girly-girl, or more of a tom-boy? How old is she?
2. Find out if she has any skin allergies. If you choose to buy jewelry for someone, always make sure they’ll be able to wear it.
3. Go for something personalized. If you do decide to buy jewelry, have your flower girl’s name engraved on it with the date. This will work for lockets, pendants, and charm bracelets quite easily.
4. Consider including a teddy bear with the jewelry. Some young girls may not be too excited about receiving a locket or bracelet, but get very excited about a teddy that wears a shirt saying “Thank you for being my flower girl.”
5. If your flower girl is more into field hockey than jewelry, consider getting a stick with her name and the wedding date painted onto it. Use your imagination to make the gift distinctive by considering her favorite activities and incorporating them into your gift buying.
6. Put together a gift bag full of items that your flower girl will love. If she loves to cook, you can include cookie cutters and mixes. Add non-edible items like a picture frame or T-shirt with her name on it. Tailor it to your girl’s specific interests.

Tips & Warnings

• Be creative. There is no cut-and-dry gift for flower girls. Ideally, you want something that will last a long time and remind her of the day. But it can be quirky and fun, too!
