Re: bm all in different dresses?
You can get them from almost any designer...just look for dresses that come in the same fabric (ie satin or taffeta, etc) and the same colors....most BM designers have many dresses that come in the same!
ETA: Colors you see a dress in in a Bridal store or online are usually just the sample...ask to see the book of swatches for that designer and style to see all the colors.

anywhere you can buy bridesmaid dresses... that's the way they work - designers will offer an array colors in a particular fabric, as well as a number of dresses in that fabric. Usually people choose the fabric, color, AND style, if you let the girls choose or do a few different dresses, you just choose a fabric and color from a particular designer, then let the girls pick the dresses they want (or whatever) and order them in the correct color.

Re: bm all in different dresses?
We did this with my BP. I went wtith my BP to the store (Bridal Reflections) and told them to pick one designer (they picked Bill Levkoff). The three adults chose different 2-piece sets with the skirt going to the floor. One was a sweetheart neck, one was a v neck with a fitted bodice and the third was one of the strapless sets.The teens each chose a different one piece dress. All were in Euro Satin in Navy. The pictures are from the Levkoff site and as you can see, they did not all look alike there. The color looked most like the picture on the bottom right:
My BP(picture is dark):
They all wore different silver shoes which didnt really matter because nobody saw them. Most of them ended up wearing the slippers from the basket.
They were all happy and nobody complained. They looked like a cohesive bridal party.

You can use any designer, you just order the dresses in the same color and thats how it goes. Choose the dresses give the store the color

Thanks everyone, for some reason I never thought to just pick a designer I thought some lines were better for mixing and matching but I guess it works with any brand

Re: bm all in different dresses?
I had all my bridesmaids pick their own dresses, but from Alfred Angelo in wine. They picked satin and chiffon for their dresses. I think it will turn out nice.
They all ordered from different stores, which is not really recommended b/c the colors might be slightly off b/c the dresses will not come from the same dye lot. But it just worked out easier b/c they are all from different states.

Re: bm all in different dresses?
My bridal party wore different dresses. My girls all have different body types and I let them choose the dresses they would feel most comfortable in. I chose the designer, the length, material and color. One tip I would make is to take them to a bridal salon where they carry a lot of samples of the designer you like. I took mine to one of the places in Commack. (Coincidentally my Maid and Matron of honors chose the same dress, and one bridesmaid chose a very similar dress.)
Good Luck

Re: bm all in different dresses?
We did same dresses for BMs but in different colors which is also an option if they all decide on the same dress and you like two colors. My Maid of Honor wore an entirely diff dress but in the same fabric by the same designer.
