BM dress issues

I found a dress I love but I'm driving myself crazy worrying that my girls won't like it. I took one bm to look the other night and we found one that we both loved but now I'm doubting whether all my girls will like it. The dress has a little train in the back and I'm wondering whether that'll be annoying. Ahh... did anyone else go through this? I'm driving myself crazy.

(FYI: The dress I'm worrying about is Bill Levkoff style 966 in the champagne and taupe - I can't get it to come up.)

Ok this concludes my ranting, just had to get it out.

This is what one of my bm's said to me 'A bridesmaids job is to do what the bride wants and shut up!' I love her! My other bm's however... Very difficult!

I am also driving myself crazy. I keep sending girls email with pics asking if they like a particular dress. They all keep saying whatever I choose is fine with them, but I want them to really like the dress.

As for train . . . I wore dress with train as MOH for my sister. Bridal shop put teeny little bustle on it for after ceremony. It was perfect.

I'm doing the same thing. I picked out like 10 dresses I loved & sent to MOH, we narrowed it down, then went out looking twice. We finally thought we found 'the dress', then 2 days ago MOH emailed me & said don't kill me but what do you think about 'this' dress. Now I love the last dress, although no one's tried it on. They've been great though & said they are all pretty & whatever I want.

Remember, its your wedding....they'll understand.

I'm going to see if I can post that Levkoff dress...

I agree with this a billion percent!

That dress is gorgeous!!!

Me personally... I wanted my girls to all love the dress and feel comfortable in it so I made sure they all tried it on before ordering! But that dress looks like it will be very flattering.

I love that dress!

One of my BM said she would wear a big bow on her butt and another on her head if I wanted () since it is my wedding. Of course I don't want that and I want my BMs to be comfortable, so I have 5 'finalists' picked out and will bring the BMs to try them on. I want to love the BM dress, but I also want the BM to like it and be comfortable

I also wanted this especially since my girls are all very different sizes. This was very important to me to ensure they were all comfy!!

Re: BM dress issues

The dress is really pretty and I think most would agree to that. Just ask a couple of the BM's and if the majority say yes then go for it as you can't pls everyone.

Good luck!

Thanks girls! You all made me feel better I'm not one to second guess myself but lately I've been doing a lot of it with wedding choices.

I agree three....I'm a bm in a wedding too 2 months before my own wedding. The bride basically emailed me...that she picked the bm dress go to Macy's bridal and get fitted. End of story...no description of the dress or anything. I was fine with it though, just wish I had done the same. My MOH is a little troublesome with the dresses...ugh!!! I had to finally tell her this is the dress I'm not looking anymore....I love her though.
