So, it is official First Communion dress shopping season. How can you make this event special? Include your little girl in on the selection of her dress and all the accessories that go with. If you have a local store to take her to, we always suggest that first. After all, the dress selecting experience is a very special time too! If you are unable to go to a local retail store, have her spend time looking are website and be sure you have a pen and paper to write down several options.
Communion dresses typically are always white, but there is now a lot of freedom in the selection of "style" of dress so to speak. We actually carry a large selection that can cover even a "picky" child's taste. We offer first communion dresses that are embellished with sequins, pearls, and rhinestones. Often when you select a dress that has one of these key features on it, you want a veil to match that also offers the same type of embellishment. We also offer simpler style
first communion dresses, that can be a plain taffeta dress or just a simple bridal matte satin with a few flowers on it. You can also select a mini communion purse or handbag that matches the flow of the theme of their communion dress to add a final touch. Typically gloves are not worn during the ceremony, but are common for photographs, the reception or as a simple keepsake. Always remember to make it a special time since it truly is a landmark for your little girl!
