Bridesmaids Choose Their Own Dresses - Will This Work?


Recommended Posts

What about a convertible dress? You pick the colour but the girls can wear their dress however they feel comfortable? I was reading a different thread about bridesmaid dresses and someone elae suggested them. If I do end up with a BP I think I will go this route.

I quickly googled it again and found this site

This is brilliant! I don't know how my Bridesmaids would like it, but it looks like a great idea!

Hi there. I'm getting married next month and I have 3 bridesmaids. I tried letting them choose their own dress and while they acted excited about the idea it turned out they dreaded the thought. I gave them plenty of inspirational photos of the color palette to stick to but no one was pulling the trigger on purchasing a dress. I ended up finding something for them to wear. Instead of a dress I chose a mint pencil skirt and white blouse. Everyone has just finally received all of their attire. Cutting it close! While I was trying to be easygoing and let them find something they loved, it ended up being so stressful for everyone involved. The convertible dress sounds like a good idea! Then they can wear it how they choose. You can also have your friends go to a tailor and get themselves measured so that you can use their measurements to order a dress for them since they are all so far away. :)

It worked for my Maid of Honor and Bridesmaids. I told them I wanted Turquoise, Chiffon and Knee length.  They were all different and the colours were all a shade different. Two were ordered online from China and the third one was bought on sale. They looked beautiful and they were happy with their choice and so was I.

I think it depends on your BMs. I went shopping with my girls but I only picked the color. I barely said anything while they were there. They tried on 5 dresses and all agreed on one (which I ended up loving). I did not want to stress them out but yet I want them to feel comfortable. I have let them decide on their own hair styles and they are freaking out lol.

 

My advice- is give them a direction.

    • Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!
    • Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
