Re: Official Latina Brides Thread

I've been a bridesmaid a few times...and I hate the fact that I have all these dresses that I spent at least $200 each on that only wore once.

That's really sweet that you let your girls choose their own dresses. I am trying to find dresses at stores because 1) the quality is better and 2) they are more reasonably priced. We'll see how that goes. It's tough because not only do they have their own things going on but with the economy being the way it is right now....I feel guilty putting people out.

I second everything you said... So many ( 27 dresses? ) and cant wear more than half again... not good! I think you can add like you said and the girls will look marvelous.. hair, makeup, jewlery etc will make it alot better!
