Flower Girl Basket
She is usually a young child because traditionally flower girls had to be virgins. The recommended age between 4 and 8 years of age. Her male equivalent is the Ring Bearer or Page Boy. Often the ring bearer and the flower girl are made to look like a couple, as with the best man and maid of honor. There may be more than one flower girl, particularly at very formal or society weddings, or if the bride has several young relatives to honor. This occurs less frequently than it used to, although it is still common to see several flower girls at British royal weddings.
