    I don't know where you are but my wedding dress and bridesmaids dresses all have came from Nandels in Eleanor outside of Charleston. My dresses were Alfred Angelo and reg price was $175 with a 10% discount because I bought my dress there too. 3 of 4 were $150

    Its a bit of a drive, about an hour and a half, but MB Brides in Greensburg PA is amazing. They have like 1600 bridesmaids dresses in their store at any given time, plus the alteration costs are included in the final price and its only 169 bucks, better than the 400 you'll pay at Davids. They were amazing with service when I bought my wedding dress there. Its well worth the drive.

    I had to drive to PA about 2 hours away to the closest David's Bridal.  But my girls got short dresses so they didn't have to alter the length.  They cost between $80-$130 letting them pick their own style.

    Hey, congratulations on your big day! I'm a party planner so I hope what I say can help!

    Are you wanting a traditional look to the dresses? Would your girls' be willing to pay a little more for something they could wear again? I always find that, while bridesmaid dresses are expensive, sometimes it can be worth it when you (the bride) are satisfied while satisfying your support team (instead of some of them just saying they like the dress just to make the bride happy - I usually tell the team to be honest with the bride - it will cause less friction in the end - ultimately, the bride gets the final say in everything & keeping the team satisifed - the entourage looks good, some brides worry that the entourage will over play them but they are the "supporting cast", the bride looks "better" - haha - amazingly beautiful, it all falls into place).

    Do you want them in the same dress? Same colors? There are endless possibilites out there. If you need more links to get a feel of options, let me know.  :)

    These are 2 sites that I suggest you at least look at for an idea of the WIDE selection that is out there.  Even if they may cost more on some of the dresses, your girls may be willing to pay more for something they can wear again.  Some of these are less than our local stores though.  :)
