I went to RK Bridal last night (I was finally able to get the girls there at the same time!) and we picked out THE DRESS. All of the girls actually agreed that it was the one. A little back ground-most of my girls are over a size 12 + they've got big 'girls' to boot. This dress would flatter all of them.

I posted it just in case any other ladies are having plus sized girls in their BP's. Here it is. It's by Bill Levkoff # 966. We are adding straps to hold the 'girls' up, and it comes with a wrap!

I am having my girls where the same exact dress and color, but the MOH are swapping in color. Taupe dress, champagne sash, it's really nice.

Cheri - Go early! I went on a Sat, and there was a line at the door waiting for them to open! If you can, go on a weekday after work. I was there yesterday, and it was empty!

I was sold on this one, bnut my MatOH wasn't crazy about it. I know its my wedding not hers, but her argument was a good one. It did look a bit like a wedding dress on her, so we found a different one!

Re: Big Fat CHECK! BM Dresses

i am having a similar dress by a different designer. i was thinking of having the BM wear it with the dress and sash the same color and then my MOH with the same color dress as BM but a different color sash.
EX: Girls in all coral
MOH in coral dress with lighter color sash

Does anyone have any opinions on this? Will it look wierd to have the BM in that dress in all the same color instead of having a different color sash?
