ok, i need your advice girls! My MOH is my sister and she is like a size 16. While I dont care about that my other bms ( i have three) are all like size 2-4 and i dont know what dresses to get them so that they all flow ... if i put my MOH in a totally different dress will that look stupid? I always wanted the bms to wear like mermaid dresses, but i know my moh wont feel comfortable and i want her to feel beautiful ... what should i dress them all in?

My sis is my MOH too and she wants to wear a different dress than the other girls. I don't think it will look stupid at all. If anything, it will make her stand out more. What you should do is, pick a color and BM dresses, then let your MOH choose a dress from that same designer and color. I am sure that will make her feel more comfortable!

Re: Need your advice
i was just in a wedding where the MOH was A LOT bigger than us bridesmaids. She and the bride found a totally different dress for her - and it looked fine. it was ok for her to look different since she was the MOH - and the dress they found really looked good on her!
** edited to add that all our dresses were the same color though

my MOH will be wearing a different dress b/c I want her to stand out among the BMs. I think it will look fine.

I think its totally fine for your MOH to be in a different dress. I like it better actually! Just make sure its either the same color or coordinates with your girls.

My sister is my MOH and she is wearing a different dress but same color. It is nice to point out the MOH so she is know by everyone on how special she is. Get her a dress that she will be most comfortable in. I was in a wedding where my friend had everyone wear the same color by the same designer but different dresses. It was a nice idea because everyone has different body types. Good luck .

I think it's absolutely fine if the MOH wears a different dress. She can stand apart from the bm's in her own way. Perhaps, a different dress in the same color. It's up to you.

I don't think it will look bad if you put them in different dresses...just make sure it is the same designer and same fabric...I am having 2 BMs and 1 MOH and I want them all in different style dresses...they are all different so I want them to all feel comfy

Re: Need your advice
I have to MOH's my sisters they are wearing different dresses from BM's but they all have the same premise. My older sister is bigger & her boobs are crazy! So i choose a dress to flatter her & then my other sis is a size 8 (she is 5'10) so she has the option to wear the dress my older sis is wearing or wear the dress the other BM's are wearng they are all size 2 & 4's. So whatever she decides is fine with me!

Re: Need your advice
maybe you can get your sister a dress made from the same fabric & same color just a style she'll feel comfortable in.

Re: Need your advice
yea i have similar problems because, some bridesmaids are perfect for the dress I want but othere their bodies just wont look flattering in the dress at all, but I might just go for the dress cause it really is nice and if it get fit properly it should be ok, but all my girls are around a size 8 its just body type that is an issue but I cant worry about everyone, if it was my MOH I's get a different dress same color and fabric HTH

Re: Need your advice
your MOH can be in a different dress than the BM's. My Moh had a different dress than the rest of the girls, when they were voting for a dress it came down to those 2, everyone voted for 1 dress except for my MOH so to make it easy i said well your the MOH so go with the one you like since you can do that.
It doesn't look stupid, at least i personally didnt think so, i thought they all looked good together. Plus the dress my MOH wore was a different designer than the bm's
Let your MOH pick something she is comfortable wearing and let your bm's pick whatever theyre comfortable wearing and this way everybody is happy.

I think its fine to have the MOH wear something totally different. I'm going to have my MOH wear a diff dress or diff color, depending on what we find but I've been in tons of BPs and the MOH usually wears a diff. dress.

Re: Need your advice
I have been to several weddings where the maid of honor wore a different dress. In most cases it was not b/c of the MOH being a different size but rather to distinguish her from the other bridesmaids. If you want to have all the girls wear the same dress you could try an empire style dress-This style is usually flattering to most body types.

Re: Need your advice
If you put them in 2 diff. dresses it will be fine as long as it is the same color. (if it is a diff. dress it should match colors).Shes the MOH she should stick out. But, make sure this is ok with her first. I do have to say though a size 16 is not big and she wil prob. look fine in the dress you pick.
She may even look good in a darker color but same dress.
I am having a similar issue and I am trying to find one dress that would look good on all the girls. Personally I would want to wear the same dress as the other girls maybe theres somewhere in between.
I think im either doing the MOH in a diff. shade of blue or a differnt dress in the same color.
