Anyone order bridesmiad dresses from a web site?

All the MA salons seams to be a rip off.  I was wondering if there are any good web sites to order the big name dresses from.  I am in a wedding this July and we are shopping this weekend.  We are going to look at Alfred Angelo, Bill Lvekoff, etc.

My girls ordered After Six by Dessy dresses from Netbride. They each saved $100 on their dress. Netbride is a part of a real brick-and-mortar store in MN, so it's totally legit. (In case you're worried about that like I was.) )

Some of the other girls here have gotten BM dresses from Pearls Place in Louisiana and had good reviews.

Ditto JBs. Also, if you want to order from a store, the best prices are from Bridal Reflections in Watertown. It is run by Anita, out of her house, so it is NOT a fancy salond, if you are looking for that girls 'shopping experience' this would not be the place for you. if you are looking for a great selection and prices, then it is the best option.

My girl's just got theirs from Nordstrom.  IMO, they are less "bridal" than most.

I ordered our Impression BM dresses from Netbride as well.  They were awesome.  The dresses were about $60 cheaper from them vs. Manhattan Bridals.  They gave me an estimated ship date when I ordered and it was dead on.  They arrived in perfect condition.  I felt bad not buying them at the salon we saw them at, but at $169 they were out of our budget.  We ended up getting them for $109.  How can you pass up that great of a savings, especially on 4 dresses!  I probably would have bought my wedding dress from them as well if I had known about it before I ordered it.

PS. I ordered them all together at once so total shipping was only $20 which worked out to $5 per dress.  Not bad at all!

I ordered Bill Levkoff bridesmaid dresses from ebridalsuperstore.com. The website isn't fancy but it's BBB accredited. Customer service was responsive and the dresses were delivered on time.

Even with the $40 rush charge per dress (we needed them ASAP), my girls saved almost $50 bucks. I think shipping was $15.

Just make sure your bridesmaids try on the dress in a bridal salon to get the right size. Sometimes return policies on online stores can be complicated.

The bridal shop I used Caradonna Bridal in Northboro, MA has an online ordering program where you email them with the designer/style you want and the best price you have found online and they will meet or beat it in most cases. 

I didn't order my gown through the online program, but I loved working with Caradonna.

When I was in a wedding last summer we all ordered from JCrew.  The dresses fit great and were beautiful.  The only exception was that one of the bridesmaids was serving overseas before the wedding and didn't order right away...when she eventually did the particular shade of blue was sold old and she accidentally ordered the wrong one (nobody realized until we got dressed the day of the wedding).  She looked fine, though, and this could be avoided if everyone ordered around the same time.  Good luck!

FYI the link that JB posted, Lee Phillips Bridals, is no longer in business. The link posted bypasses the main page where she says she closed her business in November. Not sure why her site would still let you potentially order things -- which I attempted to do (invitation sampes).
