BM Dress Dilemma

This weekend some of my BMs put a deposit down on the dresses. The dresses came to around $215 with tax -- depending on the dress each girl selected.

My friend looked the dresses up on netbride.com...and they are $128 on there with no tax!!!

Would you cancel the order at Bridal Reflections and re-order from netbride? Each girl would lose a $25 deposit...but would still save around $65.

Or would you just have the girls that havent put a down payment yet, order from netbride? Each girl is wearing a different dress, so not sure it would really throw the color off or anything.

I've heard good things about netbride. I'd probably switch.

I usually am too...but my friend did this twice and both times had zero issues.

I just feel bad...I feel the dresses were a bit pricey to begin with. Nobody had complained, but I was wondering if I should do the extra legwork to save them some money.

I might just call Bridal Reflections and see what they can do!

I would not Cxl the order- Because 1st I personally do not trust online bridesmaid dresses- I had a very close friend of mine have a huge problem with it. 2nd- I was told that you want to purchase all the bridesmaid dresses from the same store all at the same time- SO that there is no error with the die-lot of the dress- They said that if they are not ordered together at the same time that the colors will be off!!!!
Plus I have to say that I purchased all my gowns, Bride, Mothers, Bridesmaids Flower girl and grandmother dress all from Bridal Reflections, and they have been nothing but wonderful and very helpful. They were the best retail bridal store that I have ever been to! And with regards to the $$$$, well, just think that you will have to do this for them when your bridesmaid get married. I don't think that the price is to high, But that is just my opinion! Good luck

I don't think BR is going to go down that much. They wouldn't budge when I told them I got a lower price for BM dresses at *******. Several girls at different stores said, 'We don't price match. We just give a discount if you got your dress here.'

You can't have 1/2 the girls go to one store and have the others go to an online store. There is a chance then the colors won't be exact. I wouldn't take a chance. Was BR the cheapest place you found dresses?
