In past times as the bride and her party walked to the church a little girl would throw flower petals in her path to ensure good luck and ward off evil spirits. Flowers played a very important part in those days - the smell of the flowers were believed to ward off evil and bring good fortune. A flower girl is usually a young girl who has a special connection to the bride and groom, perhaps a niece or cousin, or even a family friend. She follows behind the bridesmaids, directly in front of the bride with a basket of flowers or petals, scattering them down the aisle. Amazingly, even in the 21st century we continue to observe tradition and honour the past but perhaps we are also a little superstitious. It may be prudent to take no chances on this most important occasion but whatever the reason, it can do no harm!
