Found my dress! Now what should the Bridesmaids wear?!

hada19

I just found my dress!  I actually only started looking today, and it was the 2nd one I tried on.  It's Allue 8825: http://www.houseofbrides.com/allure-bridals-wedding-dress-style-8825-p-3-112-50912.aspx

It's a lot like the Anne Barge 387, which I saw a year ago and fell in LOVE with but which I can't locate anywhere--and which is about 4 times as expensive!  So Allure it is!

Now I have to figure out what my BMs will wear.  I'd love them to have a sort of vintage look, too.  Think Betty Draper, maybe.  Oh, I should mention that I won't be wearing the black flower sash.  Instead I'm going to wear a very simple ivory sash that matches the color of the dress. 

I'm so excited!  I can't believe how easy it was to find this thing!

It's gorgeous! I think Angelina Faccenda has a few Tea Length A-line dresses with a vintage feel to them Or if you're looking for nontraditional BM dresses... I love Modcloth.com

Stunning dress, congratulations!

Are you looking for something short or long?

Love your dress, what colour were you thinking for BM dresses?

Like the dress.  I think your bridesmaids could wear anything, just depends on what's appropriate for the formality level you want and the time of year.  But agree with pp that tea length would give you a vintage look.

What are you wedding colors?  Do you want the bridesmaids to wear the same dress?  What style (long or short) are you looking for?  Is it a beach wedding, or black tie, etc.?  So many questions!!! (And great dress!)

Love the dress!  Without knowing budget, color, length, etc. here are some ideas from Alfred Angelo to get you started.  Some are vintage-esque and some I just thought would complement your dress nicely.

Who died and made you sheriff? Jesus, get a life. Do something more productive than trolling the boards all day looking for posts by me that you can respond to. That's te definition of completely pathetic.
