Flash your BM dresses ladies!

22 April, 2010 at 12:55 Posted on Planning 0 45

I have become a little obsessed with looking at BM dresses! We have recently 'aquired' 2 extra bridesmaids (both our sisters) and after speaking to a florist, it is proving to work out a lot more expensive than we anticipated!! We now have 6 BM's!

Just wanted some ideas etc and to see how much people have paid? We are having purple/cadbury purple for our colour scheme

Flash away ladies!

    These are mine - they'll be in the 'Cafe' colour below, not the berry colour - but wanted to show the back as it's gorgeous!

    And then I'll have a 4 year old flower girl too, who'll be wearing this:

    These are mine, they are Dessy:


    Not the best picture though and the dresses will be shorter !

    ETA - And they will all be one colour, not a contrasting waist band

    My dresses are £150 each but the shop I am getting them from said they would do buy 4 get one free as I need 5 of them so it brings them down to £120 each. If you are anywhere near Milton Keynes or can travel it might be worth a call to them ??

    I'm also having 6 adults and 2 flower girls. I'm afriad I've gone against the norm & my adults are paying for their own but I promised I would keep the cost under £80. It was very stressful finding something they all liked but I've recently put an order through an ebay shop that makes standard size or made to measure dresses that are copies of bridal shop bridesmaids dresses. I'm having these dresses in lilac for the adults and lilac (underneath & sash) & white (chiffon over the top) for the 2 young girls. The prices range from £34.99 to £55.99 depending on size or made to measure.

    I'm another Dessy dress. I only had to buy one so it was fine. There is a gorgeous long sash at the back but I can't find a good picture of it. There is one on the website and the dress will be saphhire blue not the navy in the pic.

    I got mine from Q&S of all places. This is a picture of her in it......it was a bargainous £9!! Still abit big for her but she has a 3 months to fill out abit Smiley smile A friend of mine is doing the alterations so will prob ask her to put some straps on to make it look abit younger, as I don't think it looks right strapless seeing as she's only 11

    My BM's are very different when it comes to style so i told them they could have wnatever they wanted even if it meant they were not wearing the same thing. However at the moment they are both liking this one from coast (£150) so looks like i will have them matchign after all.
