PIP your bm dresses

MeaghanandMichael · November 2010

I am in like 8347389 weddings in the next year and I am just curious what is out there now. Stock pics or actual pics are awesome. I love looking at them on real girls though.

DodgersBride · November 2010

I will be a BM for the first time next year. All I know is the colors are like a chocolate brown and cream color.

Manda's was vintage from the 50s, and Chloe's was new, but she was 8 so...

I love those pics Bec.

MarriedInAFever · November 2010

You ladies have great taste, obvs.

Celles · November 2010

Ours is Alfred Angelo style 7056.

Stock photo:

It has optional spaghetti straps, and I'm 98% certain that all three girls will be wearing them.

We're adding a sash in this style, but the same teal color as the dress:

The dress doesn't have a defined waist, so the sash can be tied beneath the bust to create an empire waist, or at the natural waist (as shown on the model). I think the sash really makes the dress.

I was determined to let my bridesmaid's choose their own styles, but in the end I went slightly 'zilla and asked (nicely!) that they wear this one.

BecW2be · November 2010

Thanks kd!

Bubbalub · November 2010

We got these from Macy's in their formal dress department:

DodgersBride · November 2010

Bec- After seeing your bio, I now want to have a wedding in October. Great pic of your daughters.

MeaghanandMichael · November 2010

Bub I love those!!

I want a navy wedding.

reddy123 · November 2010

I don't have a lot of good pics of my BM's (photog mishap), boo. They were all different dresses, but the same color from DB. My fave being my MOH (on the left):

BecW2be · November 2010

Thank you, Dodges! Let me know if I can help you at all. That damn day was 95% DIY. My first piece of advice is don't do 95% DIY.

MISSCOURTNEY20 · November 2010

These are by Mori Lee. They also came with a sash but my girls didn't want to bother with it.

MeaghanandMichael · November 2010

Confession: I wish I was Bec's bm

I want to bouquet too dammit!

MeaghanandMichael · November 2010

Reddy - what a great color!!

Posted by MeaghanandMichael[/QUOTE]

<div>I originally wanted a bright green, but after actually looking at bright green dresses I just couldn't do it to them. I wanted something they would want to wear again.</div>

tidetravel · November 2010

This dress is fantastic. It looks way better on people than on the model, but it fits every shape beautifully. And it's cheap.

This is the ceremony page from the wedding. It's got all of the girls in the dress.

I had told my BMs to pick out their own dress, as long as it was in the color I'd picked out. They all ended up going with the same one.

ETA: These are actually a light green color (see below)... the photographer's editing turned them more of a blueish color in some of the photos.

maratea · November 2010

I didn't have bridesmaids, but this is a dress I wore in my friend's wedding last year. Sorry about the excessive cleavage and yes, there's a cell phone in my breast cave.
