Re: Bridesmaids Dresses

Hi,

I actually went with my sister (my MOH) on Sunday to look at BM gowns. We found a really nice Bill Levkoff...I don't have a picture, but if you go to their site it's style # 357. Some other brands that have really nice styles are Jim Hjelm, Watters, Lazaro...I know there are others but I can't think of them off the top of my head. Good luck!

Re: Bridesmaids Dresses

I'm buying the girls 4 yards each of all the same material from a fabric store and I'm sending them to this dress maker that made my BM dress for a friends wedding. she was amazing and the dress was literally made just for ME. this way the girls will all be in the color i choose, but get to have different style dresses! and the prices are virtually the same

i really like stuff by alfred angelo - they're fairly inexpensive, and you can check what they look like in different colors right on the website...

Re: Bridesmaids Dresses

I love after six or dessy dresses. They are fairly inexpensive and are not the average ordinary bridesmaids dresses. They also make a ton of colors.

Re: Bridesmaids Dresses

I picked Jim Hjelms dresses in wine matte taffata and then let the girls pick which ever style they liked best. I thought it was crazy to ask them all to find one dress since they all have very different body types.

They all ended up picking different but beautiful dresses. I'm happy I made that decision.

I'm using the same woman, and can't wait, the dreses we have a picture of what we want, are stunning, and would cost over 700 dollars at a store, this is not as pricey and will be tailored to each girls body
