I was a BM in 2 different weddings...in which we all wore black. We were allowed to chose any dress we wanted, provided it was floor length. It was great...no hassels with finding 'the dress'. No problems with something that I wasn't comfortable in. I loved it. The pictures...came out great. I don't have any here...but I'll try to find some. Good luck!

That is what I did..I told the girls to pick out a floor length black dress. It looked great and I had 8 girls in the bridal party. They were all different styles and materials. I didn't even see most of the dresses until the day of the wedding. No hassle of getting everybody together since my bridesmaids were from all over and most of the dresses cost less than a bridemaid dress. Hopefully they can wear the dress they picked out again! I thought it worked out perfectly!

Hi Shana,

My MOH is wearing a long black skirt and a strapeless silver kinda gray black top.

What my MOH is wearing! Style 8309

My 4 BMs are wearing black and they can pick out of I think 8 different styles.
They can pick any style, but the dress has to be black.
