    My MOH is.  I've given the JR. BM and their mother's a choice of 2 dresses.  One is the same fabric and one (the one I like better) is a different fabric.  If you find dresses that you like and look good on your BMs I don't think the matching fabric is a huge deal.

    My dress is lace and my bridesmaids are wearing Satin with a Chiffon wrap thing on it and it looks fine together. 

    BM style is F13573 from davids bridal
    my dress is crl277 also from DB

    hope that helps a bit!

    My dress was taffeta and my ladies wore chiffon and Nu-Georgette.  I think satin would have gone fine with it too.

    My dress is a silk-satin and the BM's are wearing satin.  FG is wearing satin.  I guess I wouldn't have thought about the fabric matching or being similar - I went with the dress I liked (for the girls) and it worked. 

    I think you'll be fine in taffeta and your girls in whatever else. 

    I recently went to two weddings and the brides wore a predominately lace dress and the girls wore satin and chiffon.
