Re: Opinion of BM dresses

I also think they should wear a different dress, same color. I definitely would not mix euro red and the wine. I don't think this will make for a good color combo.
I know it's hard, but as some point you will have to put your foot down. You have enough to worry about. For God's sake, it's only a dress!! I have been a BM 8 times and NOT ONCE was I allowed any input on the dress. I was told what I had to wear and I wore it. And I never cared! They should just shut up and do what you want cause this is your day!!! Good luck!

Re: Opinion of BM dresses

If you do decide to do the same dresses, with the wine & red a good florist can incorporate those colors in the bo-k's to unify the bridal party. You are getting married in the fall and these are both fall colors. The florist can change the bo-k's to make them look different incorporating more white in the MOH's yet adding the other BM color too. There can also be changes to the bo-k's if they are different dresses same color to distinguish one from the other. Hope this helps!:

I am having all of my girls wear the same dress that you posted in euro champagne. I am distinguishing my MOH through her flowers . . .

Re: Opinion of BM dresses

WHY do they have to have a different dress ?? Is that what YOU want ? Or what they are insisting on ?? - How about they just wear what you tell them to ?? You're going to be sainted after this whole ordeal !
I went shopping w/ my sister (MOH) picked a dress, and told everyone where to go .....
Granted, I picked a black dress, but not everyone may like it ! - I have worn plenty of dresses I didn't like ! It's called being the BRIDESMAID !! NOT the bride !!! =)
Good Luck !!
