I've seen a couple of funny stories floating around here and thought I'd make a thread to collect them!
My younger flower girl was only 3, but she did a great job walking down the aisle. She forgot to drop her petals though, so when she got to the alter she turned her basket upside down, patted the bottom of it, and then yelled to her mom (my matron of honor and SIL), "I did it, Mom! I did it!" It was hilarious.
This is one of my favorite pics of her from the wedding. She was dancing.

My junior attendents were 12 and 8, I think. They are brother and sister. They did fine but when they walked down the aisle, they speedwalked. They're like a blur on the video. :lol:

I'm subbing because this is going to be a great thread.
My friend had an extremely shy flower girl. When she's being shy she tilts her head to the left and brings her shoulder up to her ear and holds her hands in front of her. She walked down the aisle like this which was so cute. She also didn't walk down the middle she walked more at an angle towards our pew. And did some speed walking too.

It was in my cousin's wedding and she had her son, who was 5, as the ring bearer and her now DH's niece, who was 2 or 3, as the flower girl. All during the rehearsal, she did great. The day of, she screamed as she was told by her mom to walk down the aisle, ran the other direction and we really never saw her again. They got one picture with her. Then, my cousin's son, was a perfect angel all day because he wanted to make mommy and daddy's wedding day perfect. He was so good in fact, that he never told anyone his tie was too tight on his tux and when grandma took off the tux later that night, she saw he had bruises forming all around his neck because it was tied too tightly.

I was in a friend's wedding that was held in a backyard (BEAUTIFUL mountain background!) She had two little flowergirls that were probably 2 and a half or 3, and they were SUPPOSED to walk with each other down the aisle... Until they saw the swingset in the OTHER direction and made a beeline for it!! :lol:

I obviously don't have any from the wedding yet, but I do have one for my FG before.
My sister came downstairs one day to find Grace in the livingroom with little pieces of paper all over the floor. She asked Grace what happened and she said that her art basket had fallen. My sister went out to the kitchen but Grace came out a little while later and said, "mommy I have to tell you the truth, I was practicing being a flower girl for Aunt Lisa's wedding".

:bump:
when i was MOH for my bff, her nieces were really hesitant to do anything, so we told them to stand with "aunt 'chelle" until she was ready to go and they'd just walk right in front of her... they calmed down, and the youngest who was like 18months even chilled enough to go down the aisle.
they saw their dad at the end of the aisle though (he was an usher, their mom was in the WP) and the little one bolted while the older one kept looking back for "aunt 'chelle"
