When it comes time to walking down the aisle, it may be about the bride and groom — but for a few brief moments, the little people preceding them are the real stars of the show! From the tiny tuxes on the ring bearers to the pretty dresses on the flower girl, kids add a fun and memorable moment to the ceremony.

Typically, a flower girl walks down the aisle carrying a basket of flower petals — but what if you want to spice things up with something a little less traditional? We've put together this list of flower girl entrance ideas to make the choice simple!

8 Flower Girl Entrance Ideas

  1. Little ones who aren't quite up to walking down the aisle can be pulled in a decorated wagon with a "Here Comes the Bride" sign. Enlist your junior bridesmaid to pull her down the aisle.
  2. Play with a fairy theme and give her wings! Accessorize with a pretty floral crown or twisted vine headpiece. This pairs beautifully with a wand instead of a basket of petals.
  3. If you're going the traditional route with flower petals, have fun with it by choosing a basket or metal pail that suits your theme — and adorn it with a sign that says "Here Comes the Bride".
  4. Invite the pets to the party! If the bride and groom have a favourite pet, the flower girl can walk the pet down the aisle with a decorated leash.
  5. Skip the flower petals and give your flower girl a sign! From the standard "Here Comes the Bride" to something with a personal touch, there's no shortage of options.
  6. Can't have flower petals in your venue? Use feathers or pine cones instead!
  7. If your flower girl is old enough, you can have her drive a motorized mini car down the aisle — guaranteed to get a reaction from the crowd!
  8. Skip the flower petal basket entirely and have her carry one of these fun items instead:
    • Succulents or planted flowers — no cleanup needed!
    • A wand — go rustic or sparkly to fit your theme
    • A bubble gun
    • A balloon bouquet or oversized balloon
    • A single oversized flower — fresh cut or a pretty faux bloom
    • A basket of fresh cut stemmed flowers to hand out to guests
    • A basket of feathers
    • A mini bouquet similar to the bride's
    • A battery-powered candle in a pretty carrier
    • A mini birdcage with flowers

Make the Role of Flower Girl a Unique One!

Flower girls add a fun and playful element to your wedding day — it's easy to put her in a pretty dress, hand her a basket of flowers, and send her down the aisle. But hopefully this list has given you some ideas for how to make her entrance truly memorable!
