i don't know how to word it.

i know it sounds stupid, but i'm sure most of you might not think so, but i gave my bridesmaids the honor of picking out their own dresses...but i want them to match and they know that. if anything my sister i said can be different since shes my matron of honor. but no one is picking anything they just keep saying that they like them all, so now i want to print pictures out of the 2 or 3 that i like best and see what they all say. now 2 of the girls hasnt gone yet, because one lives in florida and the other never has the time to go. so i figured if i sent them 2 or 3 pictures of different dresses maybe they'll be able to just choose from those even though they didnt get to try them on yet, either way they can go look at them since they will have the style numbers. i know this probably doesnt make sense its because i'm really tired haha and its a long story and i'm sorry, but how would i word it to my bridesmaids without being bridezilla like that i'm going to pick the dress that they are wearing if they can't all agree on one dress soon?? hope this makes some sense and sorry its so long. thanks!!

Say exaclty that! Something like 'Decisions, decisions! Hahahah. I've narrowed it down to about 3 dresses, please choose one...' make kind of a joke about it. I don't think it's bridezilla-ish AT ALL. I don't know many BMs that get any say whatsoever in dresses. HTH!

I think giving them 2 or 3 options is a good idea. There are so many pretty dresses out there to choose from, it's hard for someone to narrow it down. If you ask multiple people to narrow it down, you'll end up with them each picking a different dress.

Good luck!

i agree.....pick out 3 and say these are the ones i like best.....say majority wins! but say it nice and they wont think you are being a bridezilla! i did that and my girls except 1 made comments!
