Default Ickle Bridesmaid

Just wondering what to do..I have recruited a new Bridesmaid and she will be just two on the day. I have already bought a BM dress for the 11 year old I am having from Debenhams, but shall I buy her the same on (at the same price as the big one £60) or go to a fancy dress shop and buy her a little fairy outfit??? Any suggestions...

??? I dunno about such things, whatever you want & what your budget allows I s'pose.

I popped into Woolies today I saw a fairy outfit hanging up (I tried it on but didn't fit me )

I don't know either. We are not having any little bridesmaids but do have a page boy and will be hiring a suit for him to match the other men.

If you can afford one to match the other bridesmaid, I think it would look nice. They did have some nice ickle dresses in BHS a few weeks ago so you might find something in there.

Aww I like the idea of a fairy outfit...although you can get GREAT bargains on ebay too. I bought Annabel a BM dress from there for dressing up in, it has fur round the cuffs and is long, she looks like a princess and it was only six pounds!

(its age three else you could have had it)

Wishes she had some sort of affiliate scheme with the ...www.thedarkangel.co.uk

The BM dresses we had for our wedding (silver pixie ones) were made by them and arrived at our house about a week after I ordered them. They were around £100 for 2 dresses, but the little ones loved them, and wore them to fancy dress parties etc.

Being only 2 years old, I think your little BM would love very cute as a fairy.
Mind, she'll look really cute in whatever you put her in I bet!

Good luck & I hope you find something lovely for her soon!

Wedding fairies are so cute! My sister's boyfriend's cousin (if you can work that out) got married a couple of years ago and both she and her partner had a 5 year old child from previous relationships (one boy, one girl). They went down the aisle holding hands in a gold dress and gold shirt/trousers with fairy wings and wands. The photos look gorgeous.

But dinky bridesmaids look gorgeous in anything!!

Replying to this too late as usual! I was in Asda the other day and they had the most gorgeous little dresses for I think it was £17. They also had little cardigans and shoes to go with them.
