January will be FINE. I'm getting married August 11th, and I haven't ordered my gown or my BM dresses, yet. I haven't even asked all the BMs to be in the bridal party yet (though I'll finish that this weekend). I'm sure you'll be fine. It never took 6-7 months for me to receive a BM dress before.

I just ordered mine a week ago. I think you should be fine. Call the place you want to order from and ask how long the designer you choose typically takes.

I ordered my BM dresses about 6 months before the wedding...just to give enough time for the dress to come in and then for alterations!

January should be perfect, it will not be too late. Worse case scenario is that there is a rush fee. Most place should be able to accomodate you without any fees of any sort!

That sounds fine. I got married in July and ordered my dresses in February.

You'll be fine. I planned my wedding in less than 9 months and didn't order the BM dresses until we were at the 6 month mark. They came in almost 3 months before the wedding.

you will definitely be fine, more than fine.
my bm dresses are only expected to take 2 months to come in. The range is 2-6 months I think.

I was just at a bridal store and they told me that 4 months is what they needed for bridesmaid dresses. That includes time to come in and alterations...she did add that they preferred 5 months though...
Either way you have more than enough time. Don't let the bridal stores pressure you into ordering right now right away.

Thats plenty of time. I ordered mine 4 months before the big day and they are scheduled to come in February, 2 months before the wedding.
