Big bridesmaid dress problem

Alison, 1 June, 2025 at 21:21 Posted on Wedding Attire 0 5

My friend ordered two bridesmaid dresses from a well known on line supplier with what seems to be a good reputation. The dresses were ordered separately in the same colour. One arrived and now the other has arrived and while they are basically the same colour they are not exactly the sane shade.


No idea what to do now, The wedding is 8 weeks away, Any ideas welcome,

Thank you.

    If the shade difference is enough that it looks like two different shades (instead of one just being a bit faded!) then you could just go ahead and everyone will probably assume you've gone for the mismatched look. If it's just different enough to look weird, then you either need a high street/mail order company that can provide matching dresses for both, or if you are happy to go with the mismatched look, then you just need one new dress - which would widen your options to second hand or sale models in bridal shops.

    Hello and thank you for your reply. They ended up ordering the two together but they are refunding for the other two so that's good.

    You either need a high street or mail order business bitlife online that can produce matching gowns for both, or you may accept the mismatched look if it's just different enough to look strange

    Hi Alison,
    Try contacting the supplier for a replacement. If not possible, you can balance it out by placing the dresses apart in photos or adding matching accessories to unify the look. Still plenty of time to sort it!

    That sounds so stressful! Dress issues close to the big day can be such a headache. Hopefully it gets sorted soon. While I was browsing online, I came across mcqsalert.com totally unrelated, but super helpful if anyone’s into test prep or study materials too!
