Lace BM dresses and Lace Brides Dress

Kwalusiak

My bridesmaids and I just went shopping for BM dresses and they all fell in love with a lace dress. My wedding dress is all lace and I am afraid theirs is going to take away attention from mine by looking too similar.

This is my dress:

Any suggestions on what I should do? Am I overreacting a little too this?

Both of those dresses are lovely! And nothing takes away from the brides dress.

Not a little, a lot. There's no greater contrast than black and white.

Examples:

Nothing takes attention from the bride.

Below are some brides and bridesmaids in lace, and the bride still stands out and looks pretty, IMO:

I think the two dresses are very complimentary and will look quite nice together.  You could always add a sash to their dress or to theirs to change the line of one of the dresses or to add a little sparkle.

Those two dresses look very different.  I think they'll look fine together.

Definitely overreacting. As a Bride, it is impossible to be upstaged at your own wedding. I really don't get this line of thinking. Anybody purposely trying to do so will only look foolish.

I think they'll look great together and the colors will make you stand out more.

You're overreacting.  Both dresses are beautiful, i think they'll look great together!

In the history of weddings, no one has ever said "Oh, gee, I'm confused, is the bride one of those gals standing on the side wearing black or that one in front saying vows and wearing a fancier white dress?  They're all wearing lace so I can't tell."

I had a lace dress and wish I had my BMs in lace. I think it will lovely, both dresses are beautiful!
