Flower girl?

My daughter is 4 yrs. old….. She’s a flower girl in a wedding that’s out of town. She knows that she’s in the wedding. There are two other flower girls but they’re much older than her….. Due to medical reason’s we won’t be able to get there till the day before the wedding. The church is not available on Friday so they’re having the rehearsal on Thursday…. My daughter is shy when it comes to big crowds… Both my hubby and I are busy so we won’t be able to tell her to walk towards us. She has to be the first one to walk down the aisle and I don’t know if she’ll do it. How would I get her to do it and not freak out? What do I do?

Have one of the older flower girls hold her hand and walk her down. She might be shy but so was my little sister. We decided not to have her in my aunts wedding because she wouldn't walk down the aisle and then in the wedding when she saw all the pretty dresses they had on and the flowers she jumped out of the pew and started picking up the ones off the floor and throwing them.





Make a special seat for her on the front pew and let her sit after she is done walking. Kids get fidgity in the first place and shy ones have a tendency to try and crawl underneath the dresses and hide.
Reply:Have one of the older ones pull her in a flower decorated wagon with the rings ona pillow on her lap. You could make it really cute and girly. Or she could even be pulled and throw the flower petals while they are going down the aisle. Definetly have her with another girl and have them get to know each other before the cerempny so they feel comfortable together. Good Luck!
Reply:young flower girls always steal the show and they are expected to do silly little things, i was just at a wedding where the flower girl took three steps down the aisle and then turned around and went back out everyone thought it was the cutest thing and she did everything perfect at the rehearsal so that goes to show you that the rehearsal isn't a big deal as to how things are going to go on the big day because there are obviously more people at the actual ceremony. my suggestion is practice with her when you get to the church and then if need be let her walk down with the older girls.
Reply:Practice, practice, practice. Also, is someone you trust and your daughter is comfortable with also going to the wedding that you will see between now and then? If so, that person (like grandma or an auntie) can practice being in the front of the church and tell your daughter to walk to so-and-so while scattering her petals. I also like the idea of having her walk with one of the other girls if the bride is ok with it.
Reply:Most churches have a similar layout - main aisle with pews on each side -- could you practice at a church in your own community. At least she'd get the idea. But don't worry - no matter what 4 year old flower girls always steal the show - and rightfully so.
Reply:Things always go wrong/funny with such young flower girls and ring bearers and that is to be expected. Just have one of the people towards the front help cox her down. The cutest part at one of my friend's wedding was when the flower girl had to come down stairs as a part of the isle, dropped her flowers and scooted down each step on her but. Everyone loved it!make up
