Flower girl Dresses

I found the FG dresses that I want online. I am happy about them in style and in price (well one of them). The first dress I found was white with a black bow, very cute. I also want to get one white with a aqua pool color. The black bow one is $19.99 and the Aqua pool one is $39.99. This is where I have a dilemma, the dresses are identical to each other. No different material nothing. made the same way, just a different color bow. I sent the seller an email asking if both dresses could be purchased at the same price. Do you think they will accomodate that? Would you have asked for a price reduction if you saw the same thing I saw in comparison to the two dresses? I post pics of the dress so you can see for yourself. Tell me what you think. And would it look right if one FG wore the black bow and the other one wears the aqua bow? http://tinypic.com/r/2pzfpmu/3 front view of Aqua Bowhttp://tinypic.com/r/m76w46/3 back view of Aqua Bowhttp://tinypic.com/r/24lnf5h/3 front view Black Bowhttp://tinypic.com/r/k00k9j/3 back view of Black Bow

First, I love the dresses. Really classy and cute. Honesty...I do not think the FG's should hav different color bows. That might be a little distracting. It is hard to say what you should have said versus not said in your negotiations with the seller. It would depend on the sellers tone. But it does not hurt to ask for a discount. If the bow can come off or be removed you can substitute the one dress with the black bow. Just a thought.

Well our wedding colors are black, white, aqua (which was added because our wedding was changed to spring) and silver. I was trying to incorporate the aqua color in the wedding as much as possible. With the thinking of having one with one color and the other one with another color. We are having a bell ringer ( my niece) maybe she could wear the aqua colored one and the flower girls wear the black. Wondering is that would work since we are trying to put this color into the wedding theme.

girl those dresses are too cute!!!...ok check it, to keep your costs down maybe perhaps thinking about this idea - what if you got both FG the dress w/black bow, put them in shiny black patent leather shoes and have them carry aqua colored pomanders (or kissing balls) like these...

They are so cute. I agree with the other ladie's ideas or get the black and white for everyone and add a aqua flower on the side to incorporate the color.

love the dreses. you could also add ribbon (michaels or Joannas) to the blakc dress, add a thin aqua ribbon and to the aqua dress, add a thin black ribbon..or do like the previous post with the pommander.

Lovely little dresses for the FGs. That's the style of my FGs dress, but we are trying to get her to recycle the dress she wore for her uncle's wedding last November since her grandmother picked it out and purchased it for her. And my aunt is now deceased, so we are hoping and praying she will still be able to fit that one, since it holds sentimental value for me. But in case that doesn't work, I wanted to ask you, where did you find these dresses, if you don't mind sharing that information? And I don't see anything wrong with negotiating for the same price for both....I mean, all the seller can say is yes or no, worth a try. Now, personally, I like the idea of them wearing the same color bow personally, so I agree with pp, you could easily make a bow yourself get a bow made to make them match, IMHO.
