Possible solution to FG hair dilemma?????? Input needed!!!!!

So I have kind of been struggling with what to do in regards to the hair for my flower girls. My stylist charges $50 each for flower girls and to me that is super expensive, especially considering I didn't want them in a fancyish up do (not a fancy wedding). The 2 flower girls are my nieces, so $100! I tried to express my concerns to my sister, who is also a BM, about not wanting her to spend that much money on something I think is pointless. Anyways she seemed to think it was no big deal but I know money is tight right now, she just started divorcee stuff, so I feel bad and want her to save money where ever possible.

Anyways I think I have just found the solution Laughing They will be wearing blue tutu's, they are pretty excited about this hahaha. I just found these cute headbands on etsy that I think would look great, waiting to see if she can make them in the blue I want.

My nieces hair is obviously longer then this as they will be 6 and 3 so I was thinking with their shoulder length hair it would look kind of like this

So in going with this look I feel like we can manage with not getting their hair done by the stylist, save my sis and easy $100 and the girls come out stealing the show :)

What do you girls think?

  • OMG CUUUUTE!!!!!!

    The nice thing about cute lil' kids is that they'll look adorable no matter what you do. The blue tutu idea is fantastic!  I'm getting my niece a little tiara since she only agreed to be my FG on the condition that she could be my "Princess Queen Flower Girl." Not gonna lie, she was about to say no if I didn't concede lol

    Pigtails or one ponytail with a little curl would also look super adorable with those flowers
  • I think this is really adorable!!!  Love these headbands!  You could always put the girls' hair in a ponytail then put the headband on too.  :)

  • Such an easy way to save $50 per girl! That's ridiculous. Your idea is really cute.

  • Thanks everyone!
  • I love the headband!  And most little girls that age hate having their hair done anyway so I'm sure they will appreciate it too!
  • So so adorable :)

  • Adorable!!!

    Also, Forever 21 (ie the store that makes me feel absurdly old when I walk in) has TONS of cute fabric/silk flowers in all different colors.  I bought one for less than two bucks and it looks great.

    I might even look to see if I could get a hair flower clip there as another budget friendly strategy.

  • Those are absolutely adorable :)
    I just made headbands for mine, not paying to do anything special with thier hair. They are likely going to run around and play, messing anything up anyway :)
