How old is too old?

bridgetvictoria, 8 February, 2009 at 20:20 Posted on Planning 0 8

We were bridesmaid dress shoping yesterday and my sister was saying she'd love to put her small bridesmaid in a dress with a big net skirt thing but she thought at 7 she was too old.

What do people think?

I really like them and was going to put my 8 year old bridesmaids in them next year. Will they look stupid???

Sorry I haven't posted a picture of what I mean but i'm not clever enough...

    I don't think 7 is too old at all....at that age, she's probably be a bit too young for some of the older styles of bridesmaid dress anyway!

    What Bec said, at aged between 7-10 they're probably look silly in some of the "young bridesmaids" dresses anyway.

    I think they would look fine in that type of dress.

    I take it you mean something like this: -

    This is a pic of the model wearing it, here is my 2 neices wearing it on my wedding day back in September, they both have on peticoats to make it puffier. The oldest was 6 and the youngest was 5.

    Hope this helps.

    Luv Victoria

    Hi bv,

    Sorry for the delay in responding. The dresses are by Ronald Joyce and I got them from a wedding dress shop local to my mum.

    The design number is 29105 and they also do an adults version.

    Luv Victoria

    I think that it has a lot to do with their height and size at that age. By 9 I was 5ft 3 and so probably would have looked silly in something like that, but having said that 8/9 is typically the age that children make their communions and the dresses for the girls tend to be along the lines of the pictures above.
