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.
But there is one dress in david bridal that i really liked but you have to have hips and *** like us latinas well some of us. 3 of my girls are gifted up top nothing in the bottom so it didnt look right.. it was 135... i really like that one..

it doesnt look right on her cause she has no hips but it would look great on us. :)
That dress is gorgeous!!..I like this one for my bridal party because i have a day wedding..

oh i really like that one... if i had a summer wedding that would be it..
What color is the dress going to be in? The train brings it out!

No offence to any of you that have your girls pay for their suff, im just about to say my opinion here, but i think that if they are doing me the favor of being in my wedding when they could have simply said no, then i should be accomodating. They are doing me a favor, not the other way around.

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!
i just saw 27 dresses.. it was funny..
Shaquia my FH is going away next week ill see when im not working if you wanna go see some places. I have to go to chateau briand to ask some questions if you wanna come w/ me. then go to where ever else you want...
I sent you FM

Check out housesofbrides.com
I had the girls give me the money and purchase the dresses there. The gowns cost $165 and I got it off the website for $130, and had them do the alteration with my friends mom which came out to $25 way less then your normal bridal place.

I'm doing David's Bridal BM dresses...they're perfect for my spring vintage wedding and they're super affordable. Since they're tube dresses my girls don't have to worry about have a specific shape to look amazing in them!
Same color? If so very pretty!
