Among the more popular shades to appear in a bridal party, blue is also one of the most varying too. Consider that it is possible to find sapphire blue, "Tiffany" blue, peacock blue, and cornflower blue among dozens of other shades and hues. One of the most common ways to add a bolder or more unique variant of this color into a wedding party is through the garments worn by the various attendants, and a blue flower girl dress is among the most popular options.

Why? This is because the bridal party that requires a dash of blue will never be overwhelmed by the diminutive dimensions of a child's garment. Consider that a bride who wants to use the wildly popular and distinctive "Tiffany" blue as an accent in the bridesmaid's gowns and even on the male attendants clothing could also select an entirely "Tiffany" blue flower girl dress that uses only subtle hints of other colors.

For instance, the bride might wear an ivory gown, her attendants might don a floral print with splashes of that desired bluish color, but her flower girl might instead wear an embroidered blue flower girl dress with an ivory sash. The dress could easily be found in the gorgeous "Tiffany" hue that would add a delicate touch of this color without it being altogether too much.

Of course, there are bolder or richer shades of the color where a blue flower girl dress is concerned, and this might mean everything from a brilliant electric blue base for a more "fairy tale" gown with overlays of tulle and a bodice of velour to a color-block skirt in blue silk attached to a paler creamy bodice.

It is important, however, to discuss the color choice with the little girl who will be wearing it. Many young girls associate most shades of blue with the idea of "boy's clothes" and if it is going to cause serious disappointment on the part of the child it might be a good idea to know this in advance. Including a little girl in the overall selection process is one way to be sure that she will be happy and excited about the wedding day itself. It is also the only way to know if she will be able to move comfortably in the garment selected. This is especially true if the skirt is less full than what the child is used to wearing in her "everyday" clothing.
