Bridal Party Dresses - help - when do you order?

Hey Everyone,

How many months out from wedding do you order your bridesmaids gowns?
What about the flower girls???
Please Post pics of flower girl dresses your going with...need some some advice.

I haven't even started looking for dresses. I was planning on doing that in the fall, at the 1 year mark.

I've been in several other BP though and we ordered dresses anywhere from a year to 9 months before. It takes the dress about 3 months or so to come in and then alterations are done like 1-2 months before the wedding. HTH!
