Re: Help with Bridesmaid dresses

Also on David's Bridal they have a section on there where you can mix and match tops and bottoms of bride's maids dresses. I've heard that it is a tread now for your bride's maids to wear the same color but diffrent types of dresses. You know, same skirt but a diffrent style of top....

Be Blessed.....

Re: Help with Bridesmaid dresses

Laneirh you are so correct, that is the new trend now, the mix and match sets with same color. I love the felxibility to that. Platinumstyle welcome to the sistahood. If you do not see anything at David's you can always do a search on google OR....we have a fabulous sista on here that can find a needle in a hay stack [lol]...here name is Phenomonique, you can hook up with her and she will hook you up. Good luck sista.

Charlotte wishes you all a beautiful Christmas filled with loads of love, laughter and the true meaning of this blessed season.

Amen to that CharlottrModebe. I had the same issue with bridesmaids. Phenomonique suggested Bari Jay and Alfred Angelo. Check out their websites.

Re: Help with Bridesmaid dresses

As far as affordable bridesmaid gowns go, Eden Bridals new line is something else. They haven't posted them on their website yet, but they are very, very, nice. Pity, because the current selection leaves much to be desired. Platinumstyle, are you going to were a gold wedding gown?

Living my life like it's GOLDEN!!

Re: Help with Bridesmaid dresses

Thank you sistas for your help. I'll be sure to check out those websites. Most of the bridal shops that I've checked out didn't carry gold bridesmaids dresses. Phenomonique, I plan to wear a white gown. However, I did find one with gold accents. I'll keep you ladies posted on my findings. Also, I look forward to helping you all out in any way possible.

Born Blessed!

Re: Help with Bridesmaid dresses

I'm glad that u where able to find something. There is just so much out there. Be sure that you choose your bridesmaids dresses for value as well as style. When you go that route, it all turns out right. Good luck!

Re: Help with Bridesmaid dresses

Laneirh you are so correct with choosing value for money, but Plantinum you still have a lot of time so ensure this is the dress that you absolutely must have for your girls, and I mean shop around and don't make a quick decision cus that's all you have found so far. Hook up with Phenomonique.

Charlotte wishes you all a beautiful Christmas filled with loads of love, laughter and the true meaning of this blessed season.

Re: Help with Bridesmaid dresses

Actually, Charlotte I have seen others but the one I like is something that should look good on all the bridesmaids.Especially, the well-endowed sistas;one which happens to be my well developed 11 year old daughter (jr.bridesmaid).The dress is nice and isn't too revealing.But of course, I'm always looking for others.Thanks, Sistas!

Born Blessed!

Re: Help with Bridesmaid dresses

I'm not sure how to post things on the boards.Please tell me how to do it.The site that I saw the dresses was on www.bridalonlinestore.com style#P4004 but I don't think they carry them any more.I did find the same dresses in a store in Tampa for only $59.99!And surprisingly they were good quality.You can see my wedding gown on the same site style #g01385.I found a similar bridesmaid dress on formalkids.com style#d3003.

Re: Help with Bridesmaid dresses

Good news!My favorite cousin agreed to become one of my bridesmaids.The reason why she was hesitant before is because she had never been in a wedding before.She thought that she was going to have to be bombarded with responsibility.I just told her that all is had to do was pay for her dress and shoes.I'll handle everything else.Now she's relieved and happy for me.

Re: Help with Bridesmaid dresses

Rony I went look at the dress and I have an idea of it...the only problem is because the dress is dark, it makes it a little difficult to really appreciate. If you can maybe post it in the Platinum color that would be awesome. Hope I am not being difficult

Charlotte wishes you all a beautiful Christmas filled with loads of love, laughter and the true meaning of this blessed season.

The Ashanti song is the one that broke the camel's back. It will play, then the end will cue my oldest sister to light the memorial candle then amazing grace instrumental will play. That was his favorite song.
