What should girls wear for their First Communion?

The church where the ceremony takes place will often have their own standard dress code or guidelines to follow, however generally, a white dress – that is typically tea length, is often worn for a girl’s First Communion. When choosing the dress styles carried here at the boutique, we follow the local Diocese guidelines on First Communion attire for girl Communicants, making sure that the dresses are appropriate for this special Sacrament.

Holy Communion dresses can include intricate detailing such as delicate beading, ruffles, bows, and lace. First Communion accessories like veils, boleros, jackets, or gloves are beautiful finishing touches to complete her Communion outfit and make her feel beautiful for this joyous occasion.

THE ASK DIFFERENCE

So often nowadays our schedules are hectic, busy and rushed – but choosing a dress for this joyous event should not be. Our staff at ASK tries to make each Communicant feel special when choosing their Perfect Dress. The owners of ASK Dress Boutique, Sarah and Karen, both have daughters that have made their First Holy Communion. They know that a child’s First Communion is a special day, and dress shopping for the event should be a fun experience.

‘”We want the shopping experience to be a special memory between the daughter and her family. We encourage the “twirl test” and trying on different veils when choosing the dress of her dreams,” says Sarah, one of the owners at ASK.  “We can tell which dress is the customer’s favorite based on how big her smile is in each dress,” says Karen.

Please feel free to call the boutique with any questions that you may have.  No appointments are needed to shop at ASK.  A selection of our First Communion dresses and accessories can be seen on our website at www.askdressboutique.com.
