Tips in Shopping for a Girl’s First Communion Dress:
• Know your child’s measurement and don’t care the size number on the tag in the garment. Fit is everything for comfort and appearance-the tag means nothing.
• Know what is required in your parish and what is the norm or common in your area. Try to blend in with the others around while expressing your own personal style.
• If your child is going to wear gloves, have her remove them before she goes up for Communion.
• Coordinate accessories when selecting the dress. Select the right slip or petticoat, stockings, shoes, headpiece (usually a veil), and perhaps gloves (if acceptable in your parish).
• Make sure she is warm enough with a nice jacket, coat or sweater going to and from the ceremony.
• Most importantly- focus on the true meaning of the day. The dress, veil, shoes and other things are the icing on the cake and not what’s most important.
• Be sure to get picture but be discreet while taking them – especially when using flash. It is best to have a portrait done by a professional on a separate sitting date.
• Don’t wait until the last minute! Styles and sizes disappear rapidly during first communion season causing anxiety and frustration.
• Don’t try to make a fashionista statement that defies good taste. Modesty is the key. Most parish coordinators tell us that rules were created because parents weren’t exercising good judgment.
• Don’t go overboard on accessories. Things like capes and shawls cause anxiety and the child will fidget rather than pay attention to the ceremony; these things are best left with the family during ceremony.
• Discuss your vision of the day with your child. Listen to her vision too-before shopping. Maybe she is struggling with the fear of looking too girly or doesn’t want a puffy dress. Listen to see where you can make compromises so everyone is happy
