My 3 kids are standing up in a cousin's wedding. My Aunt offered to pay for the 2 flower girl dresses. I feel this is a nice gesture, but not necessary. She feels that she has the funds and since I still have so much more to do for the wedding and many more costs to incure, she would like to help out this little bit.
Am I offening her by not accepting the money? When I agreed to have the kids stand up, I figured on the cost, so it is not a shock to me, but money is a bit tight for us.
If funds are tight and your aunt has offered I would suggest you graciously accept (if you know she can afford to foot the bill). Your aunt wil probably get enjoyment out of helping and seeing the children in their outfits. My nana was like that with my own children.
A nice gesture would be to have the children make a thank you card. Perhaps taking a photo of them in the outfits and glueing it to their handmade card or framing it nicely so you are sure to let her know that you are all very appreciative.
