    I have a 14 yera old sister that adores me and is like a little me. I want her to be my Junior Bride, but I can't find a dress. I want it to be cute and ivory. She is so tiny, so she can't fit the regular BM dresses, but she's way too tall for the Flower Girl dresses..plus I don't want her in a puffy dress. I am leaving that for my little neices. PLEASE HELP!!

    I blew the budget    7-19-10  

    My 14 year old niece would (insert dramatic whiney voice here) die  if I tried to put her in a bigger flower girl dress. Are you going to pick the dress out yourself or does she have some say so.

    Good question. I'm having one Jr bridemaid my baby sister she's 11 yrs old. She's too big to be a flowergirl, too small to be a regular bridesmaid. I think I'm just going to put her in the same color dresses as the bridesmaids. Maybe you can put her in the same bridal line. I know forever yours has the same fabric color for the jr bridesmaid as well. Good luck.

    I think David's Bridal and Alfred Angelo also sell junior bridesmaid outfits, but I don't know about ivory... just look in to it! :o)

    You should be able to get a junior bridesmaid dress in ivory or white. I second checking out David's Bridal. Or, take a look in April at off-the-rack Easter dresses, you might find something ivory then too.

    Most designers make BM dresses in jr sizes.  Personally, I think the mini bride thing is kinda wierd and would just have her be a junior bridesmaid.

    HI, Blown Budget...I don't want her in a puffy flower girl dress, thus my dilemma.

    I couldn't find anything along the lines that I want when I went to David's for my BM's for her.

    JoJo, I don't want her to be a Junior Bridesmaid...that's what my neices are doing. I want her set apart from them.

    How about something in Maggie Sottero's Flirt line? Or Jessica McClintock? Some good designers make smaller versions of their dresses because of Sweet 16's etc.

    Alfred Angelo has a lot of dresses to choose from that come in junior bridesmaid's sizes that would fit her.. I'm sure you could find something to fit your idea.. Otherwise, maybe look for short wedding dresses in petite sizes.

    Check Alfred Angelo, thats where my 8 year old cousin got her junior bridesmaid dress, it matched my bridesmaid dresses but had spaghetti straps (my BM dresses were strapless).  They have a ton of options for junior BM dresses

    I was goingn to suggest Alfred Angelo too.  I have 3 jr. BMs and one out of the 3 was in between child sizes and adult, and they got her measurements down, she's tiny too, also 14.
