When I got engaged I started thinking about who to have in my wedding and realized that I knew NO ONE who could be my flower girl. So my mom suggested I ask her friend if her 3 year old granddaughter could do it. Well I asked her and she said that the girl would have to get to know me because she was shy. Well this family has made no effort to meet up with me so I can get to know the little girl. And the grandmother (my mom's friend) told me the little girl still doesn't know anything about it. The mother knows but she hasn't asked the girl if she wanted to do it or not.
My FI's sister is having a baby girl soon and REALLY wants her to be the flower girl (she will be 1 by the time of my wedding). I would really like for her to be the flower girl too (of corse I would wait until the baby was born atleast because I have seen ultrasounds be wrong before).
Should I keep trying to contact my mom's friend and her family? They really havn't made any effort to meet up with me since I asked a few months ago and I don't really think the mom even wants her girl to do it. Any suggestions on what I should do here? Keep in mind I will not tell my FI's sister her baby can be my flower girl until after the baby is born AT LEAST.
I also considered my puppy (who will also be 1 by the time we get married) but I've already herd opinions about that. LOL
