Let’s face it. Tweens rule the world. At least the part that’s not boring or depressing. Think about it. They gave us Bieber Fever, Twilight, and texting.  In a few weeks, they will give us the next American Idol.

And they are the only age group that can collectively pull off the skinny jean. It’s a good time to be a tween.

There was a time when this wasn’t always the case.  A decade ago, those between 9 and 13 were trapped in major identity limbo.  In the wedding business, they had no business. They were not included in the wedding party because they were too old to be flower girls and too young to be bridesmaids. And when they were included, they had to wear the same dress as the 4-year-olds.  Dislyk!

Not anymore.  The tween culture is now demanding notice in the wedding world.  They want to be called junior bridesmaids, and they want their own dresses, thank you very much.

They want to be pretty in pink

Not so basic black

And sing the fabulous blues

The best part about being a junior bridesmaid? No one expects her to throw the shower!  Lyk!

Easter was last Sunday, and that means we are now in the middle of First Communion Season. For our Catholic friends, this is a very important spiritual milestone in their children’s lives, and much time, energy, and money (!) will be spent preparing for the big day.

At Pink Princess, we have been preparing for First Communion Season as well, and we have stocked an extensive collection of Communion dresses, accessories, and gifts at the right price.

Our Communion dress styles range from clean, classic lines

to rhinestones and ruffles.

There’s a dress for everyone, and each one ships for free.

To finish off the look, our accessories section is fully stocked with

veiled headpieces,

frilly petticoats,

satin gloves,

and so much more.

The gifts we have selected are as much a joy to give as they are to receive.

There is the angel to watch over her,

And this beautifully boxed pearl bracelet with silver cross.

These keepsakes are sure to be loved for years to come.

We hope this Season brings you much joy. Blessings to all.
