Hi ladies-
So originally my BMs and I discussed having them buy or wear a dress they would wear again for the wedding. I didn't want to ask my girls to go to a store to buy matching dresses for this one day that they won't ever wear again.
Then I showed them color swatches, examples, pictures, and shopped online/window shopped with the girls.
Recently they have showed me the dresses they bought. None of them are within the color scheme I suggested, and they're all very different in terms of cut, fabric, etc. I know this is the reason why most people just buy the same dress for all of the girls, or go someplace like David's Bridal to pick out dresses by the same designer.
So I guess my question is what do I do now?
Do I ask the girls to return their dresses (if possible) and try to find new ones that go better together?
Should I pick-out new dresses, get their approval, and then offer to buy them myself?
I'm very worried about their budgets because this wasn't an expense we previously discussed. I assumed if they were buying their own dresses they would stay within their own budgets.
