Needing a little reassurance..BM dresses

Hey guys!
So I have already gotten my bridesmaid dresses-4 of the 6 are already in. However my future MIL keeps making me feel really bad about them. They are a little different but strapless dresses just did not look good on my girls (who are either REALLY busty or not at all). The dress is from Davids Bridal in Horizon. I liked them because I thought they looked elegant and  a little fancier than others. Obviously it's too late to turn back now but I was hoping you guys could make me feel better. Here's the link to the dress I picked.

  • Oh my gosh those are really pretty (and I promise I'm not just saying that)!  They look like they'd be flattering on so many different body types, and I really like the unique neckline. I'm someone who doesn't look great in strapless dresses, so I can really appreciate that you chose a more comfortable cut for your ladies.

  • Those are really cute!! They remind me of the one I had to wear for my Best Friends wedding 2 years ago!



    We all had different dresses that we got to pick, I loved how mine was because I do have a bigger bust and it was secured away all night!

  • I like the dress. I think the neckline is cute. I don't know if you are wearing strapless for your dress but I think it looks good when the bridesmaids wear a different style neckline from the bride. Something you might want to bring up to your FMIL if her issue is with the neckline and this applies to you. Actually, before I decided on letting my bm's pick their own dresses...this is one of the styles from davids I was considering for them. As long as you like it, don't let her get you down. :)
  • My MOH almost chose this exact dress!! She absolutely loved it when she tried it on and it was very flattering on her (she is a bit of a bigger girl).
  • I love it! It is very pretty, and definitely has an elegance about it. Don't feel bad...if your girls like it and you like it, that's what matters! (Even if your girls didn't love it, as long as you do lol)

  • That is a lovely dress. Not sure what your MIL's beef is but she needs to get over it!
