• 0:00
  Speaker 1: Wake Up with a fang, Hannel and the Club on.
• 0:05
  Speaker 2: Nine four seventh.
• 0:06
  Speaker 3: Now we have a question, Johannes bad mm hmmm. We
• 0:09
  Speaker 3: haven't asked and everyone is qualified to answer this question?
• 0:14
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I think I do think everyone is qualified for.
• 0:16
  Speaker 3: This, especially if you've been to one wedding in your life.
• 0:19
  Speaker 3: You don't have to have been to an array of them.
• 0:22
  Speaker 3: One will do for your expertise level on this.
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: How old is too old to be a flower girl?
• 0:33
  Speaker 4: I'll go first. Yeah, I don't think you're too old
• 0:35
  Speaker 4: to be a flower girl.
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: So you could be seventy two.
• 0:38
  Speaker 4: Well, I mean, if you look seventy two might be
• 0:40
  Speaker 4: pushing it because you'll be the grandma. But I think
• 0:42
  Speaker 4: if you've got like if you're getting married and your
• 0:44
  Speaker 4: sister is the or you've got a friend who's the
• 0:46
  Speaker 4: flower girl, or I don't, is that is that weird?
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: Is a flower girl supposed to be small? Small?
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: Yes, I would say twelve years old. Is we're good?
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: You're good?
• 0:57
  Speaker 5: I think, yeah, So I also say it at twelve.
• 0:59
  Speaker 5: But I also think it depends on how tall the
• 1:01
  Speaker 5: flower girl is, because if you've got a flower girl
• 1:03
  Speaker 5: that's maybe really tall, and maybe she's taller than the
• 1:05
  Speaker 5: bride or the bride's maids. Then it looks a bit
• 1:08
  Speaker 5: which is possible because kids are taller and adults are short.
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: None needs to do better at being tall.
• 1:13
  Speaker 3: There's no ways you can be out here being shorter
• 1:14
  Speaker 3: than the Flower girl.
• 1:15
  Speaker 5: But in saying this, the lady that made my daughter's
• 1:19
  Speaker 5: Metrek dance stress, She's like, Okay, cool, blah blah blah,
• 1:22
  Speaker 5: we can make it. And the second time we met her,
• 1:24
  Speaker 5: she said, so listen, don't panic. I am going to
• 1:26
  Speaker 5: be busy for the month of March because the wedding
• 1:28
  Speaker 5: that was going to be in October has now been
• 1:30
  Speaker 5: moved up to March because the couple that's getting married
• 1:34
  Speaker 5: has decided the grannies are going to be the Flower Girls,
• 1:38
  Speaker 5: and they need to make it sooner rather than later
• 1:40
  Speaker 5: because the grannies, the grannies were in their late eighties
• 1:42
  Speaker 5: early nineties, and.
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: They were like, we need to get married now. Okay,
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: that's cute, and that's quirky and quirky.
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: But for the rest of the world, I think the
• 1:52
  Speaker 3: girl in Flower pretty self explanatory, you know. I think
• 1:56
  Speaker 3: they need to be like small and adulls and all
• 2:00
  Speaker 3: they mustn't feel like this is not cool.
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: And as soon as kids get to.
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: The age of twelve thirteen they jaded about everything. It's like, oh, y,
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: I have to be a flowergirl. I have to imagine
• 2:09
  Speaker 3: you're thirtey or not having to throw flowers.
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: It has to be like cute men.
• 2:13
  Speaker 4: No, man, this is not a goldish city ride. It's
• 2:15
  Speaker 4: not like there's a measurement outside. You're too told to
• 2:18
  Speaker 4: be a flower girl. I think that you can be
• 2:20
  Speaker 4: a flowergl at any age.
• 2:21
  Speaker 5: No, because at thirteen, if you think of teenagers and
• 2:23
  Speaker 5: how cool they are, what they like to wait, as
• 2:26
  Speaker 5: soon as your child starts really having to say what
• 2:29
  Speaker 5: they wear themselves, which is about ten eleven, they shouldn't.
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: Be a flower.
• 2:33
  Speaker 6: So you guys are basically saying a good flower girl
• 2:36
  Speaker 6: must be young enough to not be able to object
• 2:37
  Speaker 6: to an ugly dress.
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: Yes, we're all.
• 2:39
  Speaker 6: Willing to take the risk that they might not make
• 2:42
  Speaker 6: it twitch their destiny in one trip, so Uncle Frankie
• 2:46
  Speaker 6: might have to help her along at some point.
• 2:48
  Speaker 3: I love nothing more than a distracted flower. It's so
• 2:51
  Speaker 3: cute when they see somebody in the audience, like.
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: Remember, we rehearsed this.
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: Oh oh one one eight nine four seven.
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: What's your take?
• 3:03
  Speaker 3: How old is too old to be a flower goal?
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: Frankie says there's no age limit. I say twelve.
• 3:10
  Speaker 4: No, I think as if you're old enough to throw
• 3:13
  Speaker 4: petals down the aisle as you're walking, then you're fight.
• 3:15
  Speaker 4: You're qualified. That's the point of a flower.
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: Girl, isn't it?
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: Then what do bridesmaids do?
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: No?
• 3:21
  Speaker 4: Because this is what I can see happen. You have
• 3:23
  Speaker 4: your close knit bridesmaids. You don't want to because you
• 3:26
  Speaker 4: brides like to do this. You like to load the bride'smaids, right,
• 3:30
  Speaker 4: every friend that you don't want to have. Every friend
• 3:31
  Speaker 4: must be equal. Then the groom on the other side
• 3:34
  Speaker 4: has to not try and match the groom's men and
• 3:37
  Speaker 4: he's only got two best friends.
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: But you've picked your seven girls.
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: Are you going with us?
• 3:41
  Speaker 4: I'm going that that's where those girls off flower girls,
• 3:47
  Speaker 4: cut them off, cut them off at three, make them
• 3:50
  Speaker 4: flower girls, make them, give them other things so they
• 3:52
  Speaker 4: all feel feel welcome.
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: Zero eighty four double zero double zero nine four seven
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: How old is too old to be a flower goal?
• 3:58
  Speaker 3: And for you when you were getting married or your
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: sister was getting married, or your best friend was getting married.
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: How old was the flowergirl? I want to do a
• 4:05
  Speaker 3: bit of research, do a bit of research.
• 4:08
  Speaker 6: I think between six and ten years eleven and telf
• 4:12
  Speaker 6: that's a grown woman.
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: What's a grown young gentleman? So my flower girl.
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: Was eighty one years old on my wedding.
• 4:24
  Speaker 6: My grandma was my flower girl and my granddad was
• 4:28
  Speaker 6: my ring bear.
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: Okay, you guys have been huge here.
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: Okay, it's the story.
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: I'm still not moved.
• 4:35
  Speaker 6: Flower girl grandmother used up her flowergirl credits.
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: Limo you and east Onan good morning.
• 4:43
  Speaker 7: Good morning are you guys?
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: We're going Lima, how are you?
• 4:48
  Speaker 7: I'm good?
• 4:48
  Speaker 4: Thank you.
• 4:49
  Speaker 7: So I think around it's a bit too small at
• 4:54
  Speaker 7: five seeks. My parents got married in two thousand and
• 4:57
  Speaker 7: two and I was a flower girl and the flower
• 5:00
  Speaker 7: as well was around that age. Six second too much?
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: Really?
• 5:07
  Speaker 6: No, I actually think seven is perfect because they can
• 5:11
  Speaker 6: understand instructions. Oh I don't like the hazard of a
• 5:14
  Speaker 6: five year old.
• 5:15
  Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, yeah, so I think around that time. Yeah,
• 5:19
  Speaker 7: it's six six seven by six seven, basically.
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: Because my friend's kids wanted to be bell boys. But
• 5:25
  Speaker 3: now Wanga is seventeen years old and he bounces. When
• 5:28
  Speaker 3: I said, well you bounce when you walk, my baby
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: like he does that the little hip hop walk.
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: And I was like, seventeen, whoa the bride high? No no, no, no, no.
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: But one is also the he's the height of a
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: basketball player.
• 5:42
  Speaker 4: No, no, no, but no, no, no, no, I'm sticking
• 5:45
  Speaker 4: to my point.
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: No, Frankie, you were coming over to the side.
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: Because because of Wanga. I can.
• 5:52
  Speaker 4: No, I can see that that might be. You know,
• 5:55
  Speaker 4: there's an optics problem there. Yeah, but no, I think
• 5:59
  Speaker 4: maybe maybe I'll go as far as to say you
• 6:01
  Speaker 4: have to be unmarried.
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: Oh no, awer, that keeps me in the running. I
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: don't know, because.
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: I'll tell you.
• 6:09
  Speaker 3: We were placed because we've got three kids, right, We've
• 6:11
  Speaker 3: got a teacher who's seven, and then I like ten
• 6:14
  Speaker 3: to eleven. So we were sorted. So anybody would try
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: to be like, oh, can my kids be there, We're like, no,
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: don't worry. You know we got to we took care
• 6:22
  Speaker 3: of that. Yeah, you know exactly. We're looking inside the
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: business for the position, right.
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: That's what saved us. But the people were recommending their kids.
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: I'm like, but your child is eighteen too big, your child.
• 6:35
  Speaker 3: Is eighteen at eighteen. I'm sorry, guys, you can't believe
• 6:37
  Speaker 3: be a flower girl?
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: That's bridesmaids?
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: Now?
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: Yeahdid nobody?
• 6:42
  Speaker 4: No? No, if you maybe you're getting maybe you're older
• 6:44
  Speaker 4: when you get married. So your friends are in their thirties.
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and they have kids.
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: And then like the eighteen year old can be the
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: flower girl.
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: Frankie can see it be a flower girl?
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: Yes?
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: Absolutely absolutely? Oh can't you see enough pretty that I
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: wouldn't want it?
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah at all? That's fine. Can she throw flowers down
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: the aisle?
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: Yeah she can. She care they'll take a while to

• 7:13
  Speaker 3: How old were your flower goals and bound boys when
• 7:16
  Speaker 3: you got married?
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: There's something we're trying to settle here. How old is
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: too old to be a flower girl and a cowboy?
• 7:21
  Speaker 3: I think flower goals must be between five and ten
• 7:25
  Speaker 3: years old.

  Speaker 2: Yeah, and I don't think there really is an age limit.
• 7:28

• 10:03
  Speaker 6: Hi?
• 10:03
  Speaker 7: How are you Analyst Cloud? Well, I'm good, thank you.
• 10:10
  Speaker 7: So when I was getting married, I had five flower
• 10:13
  Speaker 7: girls between the ages of five and seven, so they
• 10:17
  Speaker 7: were fine with their dresses. Then I had disproved the
• 10:19
  Speaker 7: teenage not teenagers sexually between the ages of eleven and saty.
• 10:24
  Speaker 7: They had a problem with wearing the same dress as
• 10:26
  Speaker 7: this little one exactly. Then my brade met also had
• 10:30
  Speaker 7: an issue wearing the same dresses as this this tiny
• 10:34
  Speaker 7: little girl, so we had to find another dresses for
• 10:36
  Speaker 7: them to accommodate them.
• 10:38
  Speaker 3: You see, once they become teenagers, didn't they want to
• 10:41
  Speaker 3: be vocal on what they looks like.
• 10:43
  Speaker 7: We don't want to look like this little one is.
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: And then they're like, no, it's got too much lace.
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: No the po poe is too big. But that's the brief.
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: It's late flowers.
• 10:54
  Speaker 7: Oh, they just want to show up the steel like.
• 10:56
  Speaker 7: We had to accommodate them. Fine, standing this arrange for
• 10:59
  Speaker 7: them because the big ones also didn't want to wear
• 11:02
  Speaker 7: same dresses as them.
• 11:03
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and then the teenagers will tell you, no one,
• 11:06
  Speaker 3: no one wears everything is bagging. Now you're giving you're
• 11:09
  Speaker 3: giving away your age.
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: You're giving your age that you're a millennial.
• 11:12
  Speaker 3: You like, it's just a dress, guys, that's true.
• 11:16
  Speaker 7: So I think the age limit for the bride maid
• 11:19
  Speaker 7: for the flower girls should just be seven or eight.
• 11:23
  Speaker 7: When they think that heaving a say everything else because.
• 11:27
  Speaker 3: At seventeen, no one wants to look like a capcake.
• 11:29
  Speaker 3: And the truth of the flower goal is we're gonna
• 11:31
  Speaker 3: dress you like.
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: That is the point.
• 11:33
  Speaker 4: What I don't understand about Lato's conversation is her flower,
• 11:37
  Speaker 4: her young flower girls, the older flower Goals, and then
• 11:39
  Speaker 4: the bridesmaids all had the same dress. You have one
• 11:43
  Speaker 4: designer was the one shop that you had a val.
• 11:46
  Speaker 7: We had one. We had one designer. So the little
• 11:49
  Speaker 7: ones had those cupcake dresses and then they made ones.
• 11:52
  Speaker 7: We had to find same color as the older ones,
• 11:55
  Speaker 7: but then different design.
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: This is a lot of that's a lot of material
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: live at though.
• 12:00
  Speaker 3: There were a lot of people walking down the aisle
• 12:02
  Speaker 3: before you.
• 12:03
  Speaker 7: Hey, we had rooms before me.
• 12:07
