How to select bridesmaids dresses

listenwong, 28 December, 2011 at 06:10 Posted on Just Married 0

Confirm your wedding colors and get acceptances from all of your bridesmaids before you begin your search. Landybridal said keep in mind that the darker or richer the color, the more slimming the dress will be.

Determine your budget for the dresses in advance and let the women know what portion they'll be responsible for. It's traditional for bridesmaids to pay for their own attire, but you can offer to pay for some or all of the costs if it's in your budget.

Check out a few bridal magazines for ideas on cuts, materials and prices. Visit bridal shows or stores like landybridal for an up close and personal look at what's available. Bring a bridesmaid or female relative who will give you an honest, unbiased opinion about the styles you like.

Bring swatches of your wedding palette when shopping for the dresses. Show them to sales associates to eliminate color guesswork.

Landybridal suggest you think about how your choices will flatter the shapes and coloring of your bridesmaids. A full-length cerulean strapless will look different on a raven-haired woman of 6 feet than it will on a 5-foot-2-inch redhead.
