Flower girl gifts?

my flower girl is a year old.. i need an age appropriete gift to give her...also my little brother is walking her down the isle he is 16 what would be a good gift for him

Flower girl gifts?
For the flower girl: Any cute stuffed animal would be great! Or, maybe a cute little outfit?





Little Bro: How about a VISA gift card that he can spend anywhere he wants? 16 year olds are so hard to buy for.
Reply:For the flower girl I would say a nice pair of earrings ... !





As for your younger brother, at 16 I would say all they think about is video games, so perhaps a $25 gift card to a gaming store, or if you want to keep it simpler, just give him a nice set of cuff links to match his tux!!
Reply:buy him some tickets to whatever he wanna watch....
Reply:Do you know anyone who sews? It would be really cute if you could get her a doll, and have someone make a dress for the doll that looks like the dress she'll wear. Or maybe a teddy bear with the same thing. If you have a Build a Bear Workshop in your area, make a special bear for her. If you don't know anyone who can make a dress, you could just buy a Build a Bear wedding dress.





Is your brother into sports? My son in law got Louisville Slugger bats for all his groomsmen, because they were all big baseball fans (Sox/Cubs rivalries abound in this family). I think he got their names engraved on them, but I can't remember now. If he's not into sports, you could get him a nice leather iPod case or CD case and monogram his initials or name on it. We did this for my stepsons when they stood up for us at our wedding.
Reply:For a year old? I would go with a cloth purse with her initials on it? Maybe stick a stuffed animal in there for her. They also have cute flower girl shirts at Davids Bridal. Just in case you wanted to go that direction.


For the 16 year old.......i dunno. They are hard to please, perhaps a gift card?
Reply:for THE BABY, baby bracelet or the barbie bride and groom dolls, for your brother a visa gift card or tickets to sport game or concert . Good Luck
Reply:my flower girl is 2 years old and im buying her a bridal barbie...its actually a collectors doll so she can either play with it or her mom(my sister) can put it away and save it for her...for a 16 year old im pretty lost...maybe a gift certificate or tickets to a baseball game or any sporting event
Reply:Our flower girl will also be one year old for our wedding. We decided to actually buy her dress as the gift. Her mother and father are standing up in our wedding as well, so we thought that was a great way to help them out since she has to buy a dress and he has to rent the suit. Plus she is being pulled down the aisle in a Radio Flyer wagon by our 4 year old ring bearer. We are also purchasing that and she gets to keep it! Just an idea for you!
Reply:What I have seen in many wedding catalogs recently is monogramed totes with the childs name on it..get one of those and fill it will age appropriate toys for her. The tote would be about $15-30, they are usually canvas trimmed in pink or such and fill it with toddler toys. Cute and it has her name on it, so she would probably use it for grandmas, childcare or so on in the future. Congrats.
Reply:For a one year old, anything you give her will actually have little meaning now. She is way to young to understand. The bridal Babie would be a great idea if she were just a wee bit older, but one is a bit too young. Buying the dress is more a gift to the parents, not her. A doll with a matching dress is a very cute idea, but again. The meaning will likely be lost on her and by the time it is meaningful, she won't remember being a flower girl.





What I would do is give her an album, then fill it with pictures later. Or better yet, order her an album form photo blurb.com


http://www.blurb.com/ you can order a 7x7 hard cover album for 24.00, 12.00 for soft cover. Once you get your wedding photos, create a memory book for her to have when she is older. She will LOVE it when she gets just a little older.





I would probably also give her someting she can play with at the reception to keep her occupied- Little People are very good for 1 y.o. girls - http://www.fisher-price.com/fp.aspx?st=2... or LeapPad Leap Touch, http://www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp... Playtown Princess http://www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp... or anything else that you would give a 1 y.o. as a birthday/Christmas present.
Reply:if the flower girl likes princesses probably a tiara or something princessy
Reply:A picture of you and her in a frame for when she gets older
Reply:Go to one of those build a bear workshops and make her a special teddy bear. For your brother, a gift card to his favorite store in the mall that way he can pick out exactly want he wants.
Reply:How about a precious moment. They have soft dolls that would be perfect for a one year old. you could even order it so the doll is wearing the same type of dress as the flower girl. www.preciousmoments.com
