Female Best Man... Question?

Female Best Man... Question?

FH chose his childhood female friend to be his best man. It's time for the G's people to start hunting down their attire. Best man is having a dress made to resemble one of Catherine Zeta-Jones' many dresses. I thought 'oh, cool, she has some very elegant dresses', but I received word from her today that it's a knee-lengthed cocktail dress.

Should I be bothered about this, considering everyone else in the BP will have long evening gowns?

well it really depends on the look you are going for. I don't know if I would want her in something different, but thats me.

What about wearing a BM dress? I guess its kind of late for that anyway

Did you and she not want her to?

I think it should be gown length also

Yeah, I wouldn't like that. Maybe she can still have it made long?

well, I'm looking for something that would match, and I have to say that it did worry me when she said knee-length. It doesn't really match everyone else in the BP (tuxes & evening gowns), and she's in a cocktail dress.

I replied to her email asking for her to make the dress longer, and have not received a reply. I just wanted to make sure that I wasn't going nuts... lol.

And for the record, I suggested that she wear the same dress as the bridesmaid, just in black, and she & FH nixed the idea.

Hey if worse comes to worse, I'll have her wear a tux, the a Best Man should wear!
Jk... but that would be hilarious!

The brides maid dresss in black was a good idea.
She really shouldn't have too much of a choice. The groomsman are told waht to wear, so she be told also. OF course your Fhisn't goignt o pick out a dres for her, but if you said, long black dress, how hard is that?
I guess she wasnt to re-wear it, but that's not usually practical fora weddign party.

You're right... but I never told her what to choose. FH basically left it to her, but now that we know, I'm asking her to make it floor-length. We'll see what happens.

im going to be the best woman at my brothers wedding and he and i already agreed that i would wear a black female tuxedo with a long skirt (having it made) with a very sexy sequin top matching the colors of the bridsmaids. i have seen it in a bridal magazine and just added my own flair to it. i think she shouldnt be able to just wear what ever i think you should tell your dh that he needs to make sure that she blends not contrasts. i think a long black gown would be classic and sexy or she could even get a dress that is black on the bottom and the color of the bridesmaids so she matches but is still a lil different
