Flower Girl and Ring Bearer Idea...need opinions

[Carye]

My ring bearer will be 20mos old when we get married and my flower girl 6, so I thought it might be a cute idea to dress them up instead of the traditional tux and dress. My immediate thought for the ring bearer was to do a jiminy cricket outfit, looked for costumes, but they are all cheesy and expensive, but I can sew pretty well so it would be attainable. Here is a pic just to give you a visual, but it would be much smaller...lol.

I was thinking we would get him a little top hat and tux tails jacket with the white shirt to go underneath, then I could make a little orange vest with the big gold button and the yellow aster, and of course buy a pair of light green pants. Somehow I need to figure out the things for the top of the shoes.

Then I thought Tinkerbell would be cute for the flower girl, a costume should be easy to find for this, I just want to make sure it isn't too cheesy, I want her to look cute, not like she insisted on wearing her Halloween costume.

What do you girls think? I want honest opinions please

Would people get that the ring bearer is supposed to be Jiminy Cricket? Tinkerbell would be pretty obviously - and I think look really cute, but I don't know if I personally would be able to work out that the ring bearer is dressed like Jiminy Cricket... I spose you could put it on the programs and it would be pretty obvious...

BTW - I love the idea of flower girls with wings, if I end up having a flower girl - which I don't really want - I'm going to give her wings.
