many questions about bridesmaid outfits
Permalink Closed

i just picked these bridesmaid dresses for my sister's wedding (she has become frustrated and left it up to me.  she's then picking other colors based on what we're wearing):


Product Image and now i'm wondering if it will be hard to match flowers and shoes with them.  any suggestions?  the wedding is sept 10, the bride has not made any decisions color-wise, and the shoes have to be flat or wedge b/c the ceremony is on grass and cocktail hour is on grass (it's a pretty casual wedding, so the shoes can be casual -- i was thinking ballet flats or wedges, maybe even nice flip flops)


these were my other choices for dresses:


Product Imageit doesn't look so great on this chic, but was nice in person

or this skirtFire Bustle-Back Prairie Skirtwith a top like this in a lighter pink: and shoes like this: 


#1 and #2 both looked really good on, and i love the jcrew dress #3, but my sister was not crazy about it (for some strange reason). 


any opininons?


oh, and my sister is wearing one of these jcrew dresses:

I think your orginal dress you picked or the pink one would be cute. Since the wedding is going to be casual I think those two dresses would work fine w/ it.

I LOVE THIS DRESS- This is my idea of the perfect, summer, beachy, casual dress. IF/When I get married and if this dress is not stilll avaliable I am going to have one made just like it.

Well for a bridesmaid dress I would go really classic, since she will have to like it in pics for years to come. I will look for some options.

so do you think the ones i posted won't work with her dress? 


 we decided to go with the first one (stripes) for now, but i still have reservations about it.


thanks, any suggestions would be appreciated.

I think you should go with the satin teal-ish one. I think any flowers would look great with a one color dress and it also matches the style of the V-neck wedding dress. It would be more casual, but still really pretty and classy. I think the stripes would look really busy in pics especially if everyone was holding flowers.

You mean she doesn't want Chira to pick them out?  I'm sure she could find you some great little number by Route 66 for K-Mart and you could get some plastic flowers from there as well to match the dresses:).  HA!!  Sorry, I just couldn't help it.  I have to admit I love reading your Chira posts.


BTW, I really like the first dress.  I think that pale yellow flowers would be divine with it.  HTH!

Ha Ha!!!  yes, i told my sister that she should just hire chira as her wedding planner so that she could take care of every detail in style. 


i was worried that the stripes would be too busy, but the more i stare at the dress i think they will be okay. 


yellow flowers would be pretty.  we also though of dark pink zinnias.

I really like the first Jcrew dress as a wedding dress. As for the bridesmaide dresses I would go with the striped one a pink or yellow flowers and those nice flip flops that have the kitten heels. I also like #'s 2 or 3.


Is there a price range on the dresses? I will try to look for some more styles!
