Gifts For Your Wedding Flower Girl And Ring Bearer
Never underestimate the value of the flower girl and ring bearer at your wedding. Having children participate in a wedding is symbolic in that children communicate the values of future hopes and dreams. Children add to the aesthetic of the wedding - the flower and the ring bearer are always adorable, and seeing them all dressed up in formal wear makes them cuter than ever. The flower girl and ring bearer also frequently add comic relief to a wedding. Everyone has a funny story about something a flower girl or ring bearer did to break the tension at the wedding or at a rehearsal. When you buy gifts for your bridal party, don't overlook gifts for the wedding flower girl and ring bearer.
To Match Or Not To Match?
Some brides are torn between the idea of matching gifts and non-matching gifts. There are arguments to be made for both. If you decide to buy the same wedding flower girl and ring bearer gift for each child, you will eliminate jealousy if one child thinks the other got a better gift. On the other hand, if one child opens the gift more quickly than the other, the surprise will be ruined if the second child receives the same gift he or she has already seen. It's not as easy as one might think, is it, to select wedding flower girl and ring bearer gifts?
Fortunately, there are many matching gifts that can be personalized to make the gifts the same, yet individual at the same time.
Teddy Bears: Matching teddy bears are a great idea for younger children. Every child loves a teddy bear, and these gifts are easy to personalize by adding ribbons around the neck, in your wedding colors, printed with the name of the flower girl or ring bearer.
Tee Shirts: Matching tees are another great gift. Get a T-shirt that is embroidered with the words "Flower Girl" and "Ring Bearer."
CD cases: Older children will appreciate CD tins designed to carry CDs, with lint-resistant sleeves and a tight-fitting lid, as a wedding flower girl and ring bearer gift. The tops are decorated with cute lettering and fanciful graphics: flower girl in pink, with a flower, and ring bearer in blue, with a ring.
Books: How about a book as a wedding flower girl and ring bearer gift? I'm not talking about Moby Dick, or a Harry Potter book. Get your ring bearer, "10 Cool Things About Being A Ring Bearer," and get your flower girl "10 Cool Things About Being A Flower Girl." Dressing up is one cool thing, and so is getting to help the bride and groom with their wedding. The front of the book can be personalized for your individual wedding and flower girl or ring bearer.
