For my wedding, I knew the mom of the flower girl would want to pick the dress, so I gave her a color and let her at it. She actually wanted something more formal and expensive than I had in mind, but it was adorable and ended up being perfect.
My LO is going to be a flower girl in July, and the bride also gave me color choices and said I can pick. I've been emailing her options because I feel like she should make the final decision. I know she'll love anything on my LO, but I would hate to pick something that she doesn't love.
