What to Look For When Buying Flower Girls Shoes
No wedding would be complete without the fun and grace of having little girls dressed as flower girls leading you up the isle but as every bride knows it can also spoil a day if these little girls are not comfortable with what there are wearing. It is going to take time to ensure that everything is perfect for them and time is something that most brides don’t have.
Traditionally flower girls are dressed in white or ivory depending on the colour of the brides dress put it is also quite popular for them to be dressed in the same colour as the bridesmaids.
Flower girl shoes are mostly available in white or ivory which fits in to the traditional wedding party very easily but if you have chosen to reflect the bridesmaid’s colours then you will need to find shoes were the company supplies a professionally dying service.
Most wedding shoe companies supply a dying service where they will dye the shoes to a fabric sample. This will be a good point to remember when you buy the dresses because the shop should supply you will a fabric swatch if you request one. It is best to have your shoes dyed by the same company that you have bought the shoes from as they will guarantee the dying service ensuring the dying is perfect.
Your flower girls will also need to be comfortable so you need to select girls dress shoes that are practical as well as complementing the dresses you have bought. Look for design features such as extra padding in side the shoes as well as flat soles. These points are good to remember as the shoes you buy won’t be far off from what they wear every day to the nursery.
You have to remember that little children don’t understand the importance of the day and so anything that feels completely different from what they are us to may cause problems on the day.
Before you order your girls shoes it would be best to find out which sizing chart the shoes are made to for instance Stride Rite shoes are all measured by a Brannock scale sizing chart. To find this information it is best to talk to someone who has experience in those particular shoes. It is best to find websites with a customer service phone number so you can talk direct to the sales team. The team at Tootsies Stride Rite is available from 10AM to 6 PM eastern time from Monday through Saturday, and has been fitting Stride Rite shoes since 1985.
