Re: Bridesmaid Dresses / Colors
I am letting each girl pick their own style from Bari Jay . However it must be a long style and it must be made of Bella Chiffon in 'Berry' red.

Re: Bridesmaid Dresses / Colors
I let my girls pick the dress as long as it was cocktail length. I just narrowed it down with them to the fabric and color. We went with Bill Levkoff style # 561 and 671 in Horizon and my niece is a junior bridesmaid and she will be in Glacier. Basically, royal blue and aqua. Then I'm getting light lime colored fabric flower brooches for them to pin on somewhere on their dress to bring in the accent color. I didn't want to do a two-tone dress b/c I really want them to be able to wear the dress again! HTH :)

I just decided on the dress last week and we are all going next week to see it and get measured. Its impressions and its purple chiffon. Honestely, I had thought I wanted blue all along and I changed my mind about 10 times on the colors, style, etc. If you have alot of time left, take your time and look around bc the bm dresses are the most important thing!

I have definitely decided that I want my BMs to wear strapless dresses in brown. I am not 100% set on the strapless, but 90% set on it. FH is insistent that he wants all my BMs to wear the same shoes so they match. I don't really care but he is so insistent that I think it's kinda cute and will honor his little request.

My girls will be in black dresses with a pink sash. My girls all found a dress they like and we want to go see it sometime this summer. They picked an Alfred Angelo tea length dress.

There is nothing wrong with picking the BM dress, it doesn't make you a bridezilla at all!

Be careful with this, I know you want to be nice but I have seen this process get very stressful on the bride. Do you have a big bridal party? Getting 7 or 8 girls to agree on anything is tough!

Re: Bridesmaid Dresses / Colors
I'm stuck like you!! And I'm also next september! I've been playing with these colors...deep indigo dresses with orange flowers...charcoal dresses with either pale pink/ivory flowers or plum flowers....sangria colored dresses with rich fall colors for the flowers or brown dresses with same type of flowers with the sangria colored dresses. So, as you can see, I'm all over the place with colors and dresses!! I'm not sure about invites yet...I need to decide on my colors first

Re: Bridesmaid Dresses / Colors
if you want to get the process started take your MOH shopping to see what looks good on.. i picked out lots of dresses in pics and they look totally different on.
i did this and then told my girls the material and color to pick in the same brand and they got to pick their style and everyone was happy and it was actually TOO EASY when we went shopping!

Re: Bridesmaid Dresses / Colors
I am doing bill lefkoff strapless chiffon dress in Wine.
I am planing on having cream and blush flowers with it.
I just picked a dress that I though would flatter everyone and told everyone that was it.
I didn't want to be a bridezilla but I have been in weddings with 8 or 9 bm and no one can decide on anything.
My girls actually thanked me for making it easy and painless.
