I'm paying for everything, do I still get my bridesmaids a present?

I got my bridesmaids a proposal box with wine, chocolates, personalized glass water bottle and flowers when I asked them. I am also paying for everything (dresses, shoes, hair, makeup, getting ready robes, personalized coat hanger, jewellery, champagne, champagne flutes etc). The only thing I've really asked them to do as their bridesmaid duties was to come wedding dress shopping and will need their help setting up the venue the day before. Should I still get a separate gift or do you think everything else would suffice? Thanks :) I don't want to be stingy.

how long is it okay to leave guests while having photos?

Hi. I'm getting married on my future in laws property. And I was wondering how long is okay to leave guests while we go away to take photos? It's possibly an hour round trip just to get to and from a location to have photos done.

How soon before the wedding do you order flower girl dresses? We are ordering online

We are ordering our flower girl dress online and they will take a month to get here. I'm wondering how soon before the wedding to order, our flower girl is already tall for her age and has had a few growth spurts already. Do I order a size bigger? We don't have kids so I'm really out of my depth. Her Mum was quite cautious, she is concerned about her having another growth spurt as well. I'm wondering if there is a 'general rule' with this kind of thing?
