Thank Heaven for Flower Girls

A wedding is one of life's major ceremonies and, in many weddings, the flower girl plays an integral part. To reassure and prepare the flower girl for her performance, author Arlene Hamilton Stewart, a wedding historian and etiquette expert, has written a charming book that will also capture each moment of wedding day glory. Stewart offers advice on selecting a dress, styling hair, choosing accessories, posing for photographs, and staying cool on the receiving line while greeting guests. Beautiful photographs show flower girls from the ages of two to twelve, at formal and casual weddings, in moments both planned and spontaneous, reflecting all the fun and excitement of this wonderful ritual.

Special tulle envelopes sewn into the book are designed to hold photographs, the wedding invitation, flowers from the bouquet, hair ribbons, and other mementos. Thus, this book, at once an informative guide to preparations, also becomes a keepsake volume to treasure for years to come and a token of affection from every bride.
