Are you guys letting them pick out? Do they HAVE to be there for it? I'm having issues also. One of my BM is always MIA

I picked out the dresses for the girls. I already had 2 of them try it on. I am in the process of picking a day in aug. for all of them to order their dresses

Actually I'm trying to get them together so they can help me pick my dress, I am having so much trouble, I'm usually not an indecisive person! While we're out of course they'll try on bm dresses. I already picked out the bill levkoff 966 dress for them but if they find something they like better of course they can get that (as long as it comes in pink)

sometimes having too many people w/ you to try on dresses can be very frustrating, a lot of different opinions. And for someone who is indecisive it may make it harder

Re: Trying to coordinate dates with my bm's......

I agree, opinions can be a little annoying, but I'm afraid for them to hate when I pick! I'm going to try and gently steer them in the right direction... if they show!!

yes I've heard this but the only opinion I've had so far is my mom's and I think her opinion is based on the price tag so I'd like to get other opinions that are based on the actual dress. And of course the sales person thinks every dress is the dress

I know the feeling. I want them to go look at RH with me because FH works all the time but everyone makes appts and then cancels on me. Makes me want to be bitchy and do everything myself.

Hang in there!!

Re: Trying to coordinate dates with my bm's......

i'm giving up on coordinating their schedules for them. i'm taking my maid of honor and we're going to decide which designer the dresses are going to be ordered from. the good thing is that i'm letting them wear different styles of dresses as long as it's in the same shade or as close as possible. so the other girls can go by themselves to try dresses on. i've already made at least three attempts and i've got plenty of other stuff to do than try to schedule everyone together if they're not being cooperative.

sheesh I get problems just having to coordinate one day with my MoH (only one MoH and one BM who's OOT) to see dresses.

Re: Trying to coordinate dates with my bm's......

2 of my BM haven't returned my calls in 2 Weeks!!! And one of them basically said that she doesn't want to come home (she goes to school in White Plains and is in DC right now) for one day to have her fitting!!!

Re: Trying to coordinate dates with my bm's......

I picked out the dress. My MOH got measured and paid the whole thing off already. The other girls still have to go. I am not going to have them all go at once because two of my girls live upstate and I think it would just be too hard to try and coordinate a date and time with everyones schedule.
