Bridesmaid Dresses

Are you thinking of having your bridesmaids wear full length dresses or do you think you'll have them wear tea length dresses??

I've always thought that I would have full length dresses...but lately I've been thinking tea length! I think that they look so nice especially for a spring/summer wedding.

Hey,
I'm having an evening wedding so I think I'm going to go with long rather than tea length. The location is on the water the last weekend in June. I picked a really nice blue (almost like a teal, tiffany blue- its hard to describe) that I hope to use, with coral & sandy brown accents. I think you can make both lengths work, depending on the style & color. I'm sure whichever you pick will be perfect

I am doing full length dresses even though I am getting married in the afternoon. My girls were against the tea length.

Re: Bridesmaid Dresses

see i have the opposite problem...i think my girls want tea length but my mom is insisting full length since the wedding is formal, 4-9pm in the winter.

what do u guys think?

Re: Bridesmaid Dresses

I picked a dress that is tea length in the front and to the floor in the back.

I am getting married on the water in May- and i wasnt sure which was better- so i went with both!

I'm letting my girls decide which they want. They can have different lengths if they want as long as its the same color and by the same designer. That way everyone is happy

FH and I are going to have an evening wedding, but it will be in the spring or summer. I'm considering the tea length, but am undecided right now. I think that you should go with what you really want. If you really like the tea length dresses, then you should go with it!! I def think that the full length is more formal, so if you want the event to be very formal, then go with the full length. If I was getting married in the winter I would probably go with the full length though.

Re: Bridesmaid Dresses

I have been having the same issues...I do really like the idea of tea length....but i am afraid that it wont be 'formal' enough..and i have always loved full length dresses..they just always seems to look classy no matter what...I really have no idea which one I will do...and maybe one day ill actually decide on colors too
