Well do you feel OK ordering the dress before she tries it on? If so, I would probably order it for her if you know her measurements and size.
my BMs order her dress in different stores in different states... its the same dress by bill levkoff I check online to find a store near them that also sell there dress... check the designers website and find a store near her and just giver the name, style # and color you want
Check under you designer where they have location in her state. I am doing this for my sister who are in Florida.
show her a picture of the dress, give her a chance to try it on somewhere near her (if you want) and have her get measured at a place near her... then she can call in her measurements and you can order them all together

I had two OOT bm, we just took there size measurements after they went to the tailor and got measured so all the girls dresses were ordered together

well if you get a desinger dress.. you are ensured that the same color and style so she can order it online ... or just ask her what she prefers you do .. order it for her or see if you can find it online.
I know everyone says order them together so the colors will match, but honestly how different could the color come out if its not done together, I think it would be fine if she ordered it at a place by her...but if you feel better about doing it together I would at least see if she can try it on someplace by her and get measured and then she can send you her measurements so you can order it for her.
i was an OOT BM and ordered a dress online. the color should still be the same depending on the type of fabric. my dress for my sisters' wedding is a tissue taffeta skirt so we all ordered them together to make sure they are in the same dye lot. but it shouldn't be problem. when you find the dress and designer ask someone who works there and she can help you out.

Thanks ladies.. I realize i am an idiot.. Apparently i only think Bill Levkoff sells dresses in NY
I didn't even think about her going to a store near her... its been a busy hectic day and week and I still have not had coffee yet today!
Most of my BM are out of state. What I am going to do is have them try the dress on at a bridal shop locally and get measured there- Then I am going to take all of the measurements and order the dress from the same place (probably RK bridal no frills program) so the dye lot matches...then I am going to ship the dresses to them and they can decide where they are going to have alterations done. It is going to be a pain in the @ss but I really want the color of the dresses to be the same.
I have been oot for every wedding I've been in. Usually you call or email your measurements along with your credit card number. All the dresses need to be ordered at the same time. All of my friends had all the dresses sent to the bride, and then she distributed them at shower or bachelorette and everyone got their own alterations in their own hometown.

I am going with some of my BM's tonight to look at dresses (YEY!!!) ... I have one BM that lives in Florida and in the event we find something to order what should I do about her? Should I order for her and then send it to her when it comes in? Should I have her order it on website (but risk the chance of the colors being slightly off)?
I am confused![]()
