What do you do if your bridesmaids dont agree on dresses? And what if some of your bridesmaids have different body styles than the others? help :) I want everyone to be comfortable to .....

I've heard of brides choosing a color and allowing her bridesmaids to pick any dress in that color.

I have seen in some magazine that all the girls where the same color and the same skirt, but wear different tops. It looks really nice.

For my wedding, I picked a color (black for the adults and burgundy for the kids) and I am letting everyone pick out their own dress. That is as long as I approve the dress first.

I have seven bridesmaids and my Fi's sister is on the very heavy side so that was a huge concern for me. The other six girls have cute figures- so I was so confused. After looking at lots of dresses- I realized that most likely she would not look that great or feel completely comfortable in anything (I am not being mean- it's true) I than picked a dress that I liked- it is black, A-line, to the floor but the kicker is that it is strapless. I just fell in love with it- (my dress is the same style) I did ask her opinion and I showed her a picture and she said she liked it. You really should keep your bridesmaids in mind but again ultimaely it is your decision!!!

They Dont Agree!! Been There - Here is what I did

I had one that absolutely needed sleeves, one that wanted a higher neckline, one that didnt want a full skirt..... I told them the color was navy and the fabric was satin and to pick out what they wanted. We ended up with only two styles, my MOH in a strapless Jim Helm and the rest (3)in a A line, jacketed style by Belsioe. Everyone is happy and comfortable.

You could have them choice their dresses but you pick the color..or A-line is usually a good way to go, usually flattering on most people. Strapless is also very flattering on most figures, believe it ot not.
