MOH to be only one with sash look?

Hi ladies,
I need some thoughts here-My girls are going to wear knee-length black dresses in the styles of their choices. As luck would have it, everyone is going to be wearing a different style. My MOH is doing a halter dress. Originally I had planned for all the girls to wear a green colored sash that would be tied/draped around the mid-section. Well, after seeing/hearing about the dresses that some of the girls have found, I realized that the sash idea isn't going to work due to ruching/other similar desgins on the dresses. However, my MOH's dress though would accomodate a sash quite nicely. So my question is would it be odd for my MOH to be the only one to do the sash look? I was going to plan on having her do a different bouquet to stand out, but I thought this might be nice too. Thoughts?

TIA

Re: MOH to be only one with sash look?

  • MOHs sometimes have a different style or color anyway, so I think the sash idea is fine.
  • I think that would be lovely.  I was originally planning on my girls wearing black dresses with some sort of silver accent, and most chose dresses that don't really accommodate a sash.  They're looking at wraps, jewelry, headpieces, etc. to bring in the silver.

    Sometimes I feel like people think that brides are delicate little flower princesses who get all dressed up and pretty for one special moment of their dreams, when really they're just normal people who just happen to be getting married. Things shouldn't have to be sugar-coated for grown-ass women. -mstar284
  • I think it's a great idea.

  • Good idea.  In DD's wedding, the girls did have sashes on their dress, but MOH (our other DD) had a different color sash.

  • Sounds great!

    I am also doing black dresses with green sashes :)

  • That sounds fine.  The other idea I would consider is doing a pashmina instead of a sash.  The style will work better on a variety of dresses, if you just want to include the color for everyone.
