PSA: Flower girl and Ring Bearer Attire

Hey girls, I just wanted to let you all know that FI and I stopped by Burlington Coat Factory last night just to look around.  Someone had suggested to us that we check there for kids' attire for the wedding, and I am glad we did.

They have so many dresses, fancy dresses, at affordable rates.  I didn't see a dress over $50, and the toddler sizes (up to 5t, I believe) were around $35.  And they were so cute!  They have white ones, colored ones, ivory ones, they even have ones where there's a matching doll dress attached.  The selection was outstanding.  They have white dresses that go up to size 12 in girls as well, so if you have a junior bridesmaid, you might check there out as well.  Apparently, they will also get more in around Easter time too.

They also have a fantastic selection of boy's suits, up to size 20, for around $50 or less (jacket and pants).  We are going to check there for my nephew, who is 12, and is my mom's escort on the day of (he's my closest male relative).  We didn't want to have to do a tux (he's got other weddings to go to, so a suit is more versatile), and they have plenty of options to choose from at BCF.  If you have a ringbearer, you might also consider this instead of a tux; I know many times, the little guys are so squirmy that a suit is more comfortable for them.  Plus, it's more affordable than even renting a tux.

For anyone whose dad or FI is looking to buy a tux, they also sell men's tuxes, but I didn't check out pricing.

A word of caution, make sure you try it on the kids before you buy, as Burlington Coat Factory does not take returns.  But if you are looking for something cost effective (my sister is my MOH, her husband is a GM, her daughter the FG, and her son the escort- that adds up really quickly to alot of money, so we are trying to save as much as possible for her), then I highly recommend you check them out!

Also, Costco is starting to carry the fancy Easter dresses as well, and if you are okay with your FG not wearing white, they have some really cute ones!
