Flower Babies

I actually don't know any children the right age to be in a wedding, but two of my friends do have super adorable baby girls. And by baby, I mean 18 months old. Which means there's like a 75% chance that they will not be able to walk down the aisle. Although, as of a few months ago, they can walk! At any rate, I'm completely prepared for these little beauties to not make it down the aisle. But I still think it's possible one of 3 ways.

1) Best case scenario: The bridesmaids walk them to the end of the aisle where they are pointed toward mommy who is holding a favorite toy. They run to mommy.

2) The bridesmaids walk them out where they get shy and the Bridesmaids continue to lead them down the aisle.

3) The bridesmaids walk them down the aisle where they completely freeze up and the Bridesmaids carry them down the aisle.

4) They completely lose it before the walk out there and we text Mommy to come and retrieve them. They sit out the ceremony til they quiet down. They return to the reception where they are doted on for their cuteness.

And speaking of cuteness, their dresses will be CUTE. I put it a custom order on Etsy with TiarasTutus for one of these babies.




The dresses I've requested are a blend of light blues with a bit of sapphire blue peaking out the bottom, sapphire ribbon and yellow roses. And since asking them to toss petals seems like asking WAY too much, I've come up with these.




I'm using etsy seller, Pickmeflowers, to create two custom flower wands for my little fairies. The ones we're having made will feature blue hydrangea, sapphire ribbon-wrapped sticks and pale yellow ribbons streaming down. And my own idea--little bells that give the wands a little "jingle" to inspire carrying them around. But the bells are removable in case they're distracting during the ceremony.

I'll also be gifting the little princess with some wings to match. So what do you guys think? Are these going to be the cutest little flower babies ever?
