a pretty little dress.

Ladies and gents, we have a flowergirl dress.  I had previously posted about some of the options, but never gave you the final selection!  I'm sure you've been waiting in suspense.  Or not.

Either way, when I first laid eyes on this adorable dress from TheBoutiqueBaby on Etsy, I knew it was the one.  

Since the seller only had pink and cream available, I asked if she could make the same dress in ivory to match the color of my wedding dress.  She said yes, and a couple weeks later I had a pretty little dress for our flowergirl!

While I was home a few weeks ago for my bridal shower, I had Ali try it on to make sure it fit.  She was being a little shy, so this is the only picture I have of her, and it is blurry! 

You'll just have to trust me when I say it is beautiful on her!  I love that the bubble hem matches the hem of the bridesmaids dresses, and the little fabric flowers are just too cute!  I also love that it is a little away from the norm, being short and all.  I can't wait to see her walk down the aisle in this dress!

Did you opt for an untraditional flowergirl dress?

I've been looking for some cute flowergirl dresses for little Ali, and came up with a few cute ones.

The first two are from Fox 'n Lily, and at $220 and $230, they are out of our price range.

I found this dress on ebay seller goodgirldress. It is similar to the style of my dress and only about $45.

Then I found this dress from etsy seller TheBoutiqueBaby.

It is so adorable! One more reason why I love etsy. And it's still reasonable at $54. I think I'm going to ask her if she'll make it in ivory.

too cute.

Seriously, how cute are these shirts for a little flower girl or ring bearer?

No matter what gift I decide to get for Adam on our wedding day, I think it would be ten times better with a heartfelt note written on one of these:

Little wooden cards from Paloma's Nest on Etsy. Perfect, I think. Don't you?

So Vane over at Brooklyn Bride today sent me an email saying that I won a set of these custom dolls from goosegrease on Etsy. I forgot I had even entered the contest. Needless to say, it made my morning. Aren't these super cute? Thanks so much Vane and Michelle!Image by Brooklyn Bride. Dolls by goosegrease.
