Dress Inspiration - Show my your bridesmaid dresses!

mashton, 13 May, 2010 at 13:12 Posted on Planning 0 25

Hi girls..... need some inspiration for best mates wedding in Cyprus where I am Matron of Honour. She has left it to me to find with the only stipulation being that it should preferably be red.

Thought what better opportunity could be to get you all to show off your bridesmaid dresses!! ?

    Yes it's chiffon, but quite heavy. It's from Dessy and i'm having it in Quartz which is like a dusky pink.

    Not sure if flashing mine will help you because they would prob be too hot for Cyprus! But here they are anyway..

    Its the one on the far right and it will be in hot pink - as usual the photo doesn't do it justice though. It's by Veromia

    Thanks, not at all - it was £170 per dress, which was about £50 more than I wanted to spend for each one, but it was just the best option in the end!

    Thank you ladies... they are all beautiful! Looks like I might be popping to my local Dessy supplier and Debenhams to have a closer look! ?

    Both my BM's have said its a dress that they'd happily wear again at parties, so I'm doubly pleased that they like them!

    Wow! Lots of people are having Alfred Angelo designs by the looks of things! well so do we, and below are the two designs the bridesmaids are trying to decide between. I have featured them in Hunter Green, which is the colour scheme of our winter wedding (white and dark green).

    I know! The chief bridesmaid seems to like the first one better and to be honest so do i because it's satin like my dress and it's winter, but if it was me the bridesmaid I guess I would have trouble deciding...

    These are the dresses we are having, in a cadbury purple colour with ivory sashes. The short one will have a sash on too to tie them both together. Both are Dessy. x
