Re: Different dresses for BMs
i'm having different dresses for my bms. i picked the color and all i asked was that they be long dresses (bc i know my fsils both love short dresses) and they happily obliged.

I hope this works - here are three of us from my friend's wedding in September - there were 3 other bms in these same styles. It was nice because we all got show a little bit of our personality this way.
Also check out 'two birds' bm dresses - they are SO cool. I would have seriously considered these if they weren't so $$. Actually, a guest wore her two birds dress to the same wedding - its totally re-wearable. GL!
love those dresses. i also would have loved to have gotten 'two birds' bm dresses if they weren't so expensive. i saw them on an episode my 'my fair wedding' and fell in love

Re: Different dresses for BMs
I am doing this! Here is a thread I posted a couple months ago asking about opinions. We didnt order them yet but Im still choosing these dresses. I love the look of different dresses. IMO they should be the same length, fabric and color for it to work best but i think it can look awesome(i hope!)http://www.liweddings.com/chat/topic.aspx?&P=1&ID=634065&Highlight=#P7848521

Re: Different dresses for BMs
I'm doing different dresses but I selected 4 dresses that are all the same length (for unity), same fabric, and all have a constrasting color sash. I loved the idea of each girl choosing what they like the best, but again, I'd go with the same length for uniformity.

Re: Different dresses for BMs
Yeah I told my bridesmaids that they can get their dress from Davids bridal in the red color (I gave them swatches). I wanted floor length but then they have their own reign.

Honestly, I'd still have them all pick the same length. You can definitely go for different style dresses, but I still think they should all be the same length.
