Junior Bridesmaid & Flower Girl Dresses
Junior bridesmaids and flower girls often appear together in the same wedding party, but their roles and ages are usually different.
Flower girls are generally younger, while junior bridesmaids are often older children or tweens who may wear a more refined version of the bridal party look.
Couples may choose coordinating colours, fabrics or details so junior bridesmaid and flower girl dresses feel connected without needing to be identical. This approach can create beautiful flower girl and bridesmaid dresses, including matching flower girl and junior bridesmaid dresses suited to each child's age.

Junior Bridesmaid Dress FAQs
What do junior bridesmaids typically wear?

Their dresses can coordinate in colour or style while remaining appropriate for their different ages.
How do I choose a junior bridesmaid dress?
