The ivory flower girl dress has become more and more popular in recent years.
Although some brides still prefer to dress their flower girls in white, there are several advantages to choosing an ivory dress instead.
Here are the top three: Practicality: Thanks to its off-white color, an ivory dress is less likely to show dirt and smudging that a bright white dress would.
And because of its softer color, an ivory flower dress is also more likely to conceal wrinkles.
Both of these advantages can come into play on the wedding day, when the young flower girl will naturally want to play with other children and burn off some energy before the ceremony.
Distinctiveness: Of course, the bride is going to want to be the center of attention on her big day.
And there's no better way of doing that than by being the only person dressed in white.
By putting her youngest attendant in an ivory dress, the bride is more likely to stand out as the central focus during the ceremony-and especially in the wedding pictures afterward.
Elegance: Above all, an ivory flower dress is an elegant choice.
Not only will the softer color of an ivory dress better complement a youngster's skin tones, but it also lends a classic, understated look to the flower girl herself.
With all of these advantages, it's no wonder that the ivory dress is a growing trend in modern weddings.
If there's a wedding in your future, consider this classic choice.
