hmm..now sure how to take this

So I sent one of my bm a pic of the bm dress I am thinking about having the girls order. And she response back with sending me a pic of another dress she thinks would flatter her better.

I am all about having the girls feel comfortable and look good but I can't please everyone! Which I know she doesn't mean to make it sound like that but what the heck do I reply back?

Well I would share it with your other BMs and see what they think about the dress and go from there!

oh my goodness.. hmm...
you could say, oh thats pretty too, but im so in love with this bm dress and cannot wait to see you in it. and if she flat out says no, then you can always tell her that she doesn't HAVE to be in the BP.

I had one of my BM's do the same to me. I told her it was a nice dress but not what I had in mind and recommended she might want to use it for her BM's when she gets married someday. Maybe I'm inflexible, but I had found the BM dress we were going with (which was a versatile dress to flatter all the different body types in my BP) and wasn't looking to change it. Unless you actually like the dress, I'd say thanks but no thanks!

Im a real wise a$$ - I would just not say anything and resend her the original pic.

this is why i picked out the dress and told them to go get fitted. they didnt have a choice. luckily every1 liked the dress.

Have all the girls tried on dresses yet?

If not have them try on both and see what the majority decide.

Let me tell you, I dealt with bridesmaid dress heII.
The best thing to do is to get all your girls together & have them try dresses on. Everyone looks different in every single dress. Have an idea of what look you are going for & then pick something that somewhat flatters everyone.

Good Luck.

SAME HERE ...

Send her something saying 'The dress you sent over is nice, is that what we will be wearing for your wedding? In the meantime, can you tell me what you think about the one you'll be wearing for mine, I think you should still have that picture right?'
