Hello, belles! Today’s Southern Spotting is right up all y’all’s monogram-loving alley. Isn’t this monogrammed flower girl sash darling? We’re not having any little ones in our wedding party, but if we were, I would find it difficult to resist such an adorable idea!
A few words from Paige, the bride:
“As a bride (and now newlywed) and, more importantly, a Southern bride, incorporating monograms in unique ways is paramount. So when my mom suggested this idea, I immediately and excitedly agreed. Of course as a Southern bride, etiquette is of utmost importance; therefore, great debate over exactly which initials to use ensued. Should it be the bride’s because the flower girl is part of her wedding party, or the bride and groom’s, as it’s the celebration of their union? Ultimately, we chose the “P” and “B” to signify Paige and Brent. Fortunately, my dear groom’s first name and my maiden name both start with “B”, providing some grace in the midst of dissenting opinions. In looking back on our wedding, it truly is the details and stories like these that made the day.
The monogramming on the silk dupioni dress/sash was done at Monograms Plus in Vestavia Hills, Alabama. The dress is Lula Kate from Bella Bridesmaids in Homewood, Alabama.”
Big thanks to Daniel Taylor Photography for sending this fun find our way!
Tell me: Will you (or did you) have flower girls in your wedding?
I’m linking you to my best friend’s website, because this was her wedding…the flower girl wore the dress that the bride wore in her brother’s wedding at the same age, and the Matron of Honor monogrammed the ribbon on the kissing ball :) B for the groom’s name, K for the bride.
