Bridemaid's Sarees

When did you guys order your bridesmaid sarees? I'm a Christian Indian so we have bridemaid and all that. I wanted them to wear sarees and I'm finding a bunch, but I don't know when to order them. I know they take a long time to come in and that it's better to get it in advance so the girls have it and I can stop worrying about it. I just wondered if you ladies had bridesmaids when did you order them?
How long did they take to come in?
Where did you get it from, if you didn't go to India?

Thank you

    From what I have been reading/seeing, most people have ordered their BM's saris from Utsaav saris and have been really pleased. I've heard good thing about the pricing, the customer service, etc.

    Here's the website: www.utsavsarees.com

    Ditto Ustavsarees, although I have no personal experience.  But it has been recommended alot by other people.  Or maybe you want to go to a store in your area.

    I think it said a couple weeks according to the website.. The shipping on it is expensive. I was just trying to order a cheap $20 sari to see what the material and stitching would be but it came out to $60 when I was checking out. My sisters are worried about the quality.

    I ordered my ceremony lehenga from them & loved it! I only did the fabric however and got the stitching done in Atlanta. The quality and price was good. The shipping took about 5 week though, so I wasn't very pleased with that. But I have plenty of time before my wedding so I wasn't stressing over that. We also ordered my fiancées sherwani from them and it came in about 2 weeks. There are also tons of Utsav online coupon codes for 10% off. Just google them and see what you get. My buaji also ordered sarees from them and got stitching done through them as well, and she has nothing but positive things to say. 

    Hope this helped & goodluck!!
