4 year old - bridesmaid or flower girl?

I've looked at this online before and I found out that flower girls are typically aged 3 -6, after that it's junior bridesmaids, then bridesmaids. I think the labels help when picking dresses, but if you want to call her and have her as a bridesmaid then do it, nothing is written in stone.

I'm with you and not keen on the whole petal thing (we'll be having 2 little ones who'll be in the flower girl age bracket) and I was thinking of giving them something like this

make it a bit fun for them and they an keep them for "dress-up" once the day is over and done with.

My daughter miss winter was termed a bridesmaid at 18 months. i think it's really subjective tbh- go with whatever you fancy

My 5 year old niece told me ' I am NOT a flower girl I'm a bridesmaid'

Well, I'm not going to argue with her!!

My 5 year old sister told me she is not going to be my flower girl unless I let her wear a 'crown'... I couldn't say no to that!

It is completely personal choice. Although I have her as flower girl she isn't throwing petals, she is having a mini bouquet (smaller than BM's).

I just didn't want loads of bridesmaids, and because she is young she can't do bridesmaid-y duties if that makes sense?

I think the differences is about the age,,

flower girl is less than 12 years old. and bridesmaid is more than 12 years old.

i say that because what i look on some website dress like etsy, wallao, bridalguide, etc
