Granted, her daughter is the flower girl, but still...that has me thinking several of the suggested dresses are probably not formal enough.</p> <p>I'm also wondering what you ended up picking out for your daughter to wear! And honestly I would probably just straight up ask your SIL if she thinks long or knee-length would be more appropriate. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/need-help-finding-a-dress-for-a-wedding-1#post-1740139 Fri, 04 Jul 2014 06:58:54 +0000 LemonLong 1740139@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think you need to go knee length, the long dresses may look too formal, like you are trying to compete with the bridesmaids.
