What to Look for in a Flower Girl Basket
Theme
A flower girl basket is another decoration that you can tie back to the theme of your wedding. Throwing a rustic barn wedding? Go with a wooden basket to match the earthy vibe. If your wedding more glam, look for basket with elegant touches like rhinestones or satin bows.
Size
Before picking a basket, consider the size of your flower girl and the items she will be carrying. You don't want the basket to be too small or large.
