Bridemaid dresses

Alexa, on November 25, 2017 at 15:54 Posted in Wedding fashion 0 12

Originally I was going to go with tulleandchantilly.com but my sister(MOH) couldn't find anything she liked(wants high neckline, no back showing, and no lace). I found a dress I really like and think fits her style she is just worried if we do get lace dress that it might look cheap quality in person. Her dress I want to get is forherandforhim.com and two other bridesmaids dress I like is from tulleandchantilly.com

This is my sisters dress I want her to get

This is the dress from tulleandchantilly my two other bridesmaid liked and plan on getting.



My question is should I get both dresses and risk colour variation since both dresses are from different online store and do they match? OR ask my other bridesmaids to try to find a different dress from other online store that I want my sister to get her dress. forherandforhim.com has a 40% off sale and free shipping to Canada which ends Nov 30th, dresses around $140 with discount and tullechantilly has a 10% which ende Nov 30 dresses around $170 with discount.

    I found a dress similar to the green one so now we can order dresses from same online store! Now I need your help in deciding colour. My weddin colour is tiffany blue but so hard to find. These are the only two colours on website that are close to my colour which one would you choose? and the colour for the groommen is tie colour Bridemaid dresses 1th?id=OIP.5bg8COqQu5yfvoqUuTkk1ADNEs&w=1

    A lot of designers don’t carry the Tiffany blue but I️ never understood why, such a beautiful colour ! The styles are completely different but that’s a great thing because your sister has got to stand out Smiley smile if her blue is a bit different too that’s okay. I’m sure it will turn out amazing !

    Thanks! My wedding colour is tiffany blue which I am finding out is hard to find lol I think as long a colour is similar it will be fine. Do you think the two styles complement each other or are they too different? My sister wants the green one and my bridesmaids will wear the purple one.

    I previously worked as a bridal consultant and i know that colours vary from one designer to the next but it could also vary from one batch of dresses to the next. That’s why we always suggested getting them all at the same time and cut from the same fabric or the colour wouldn’t be guaranteed to match.
    However you do want your MOH to stand out !
    Also, a lot of people do different shades of the same colour which also looks amazing ! Smiley smile

    Both sites allow swatches however , the sale on forherandforhim.com ends in November and wont be enough time to send me fabric swatches to me before sale is over.

    Yes both sites allow to return product but only give you certain percent discount depending how much you spent since all of the dresses will be custom sizes.

    If your MOH is a little different it will still look uniform because it is a new trend to have your MOH stand out differently from the rest of your girls!


    What is their return policies if it doesn't work in your favour?

    Will either companies send you swatches of the fabric to compare?

    I think a slight colour variance won't be a problem. No one is really going to notice these things as you are the star. You could also do like other brides and have your MOH in a different colour from the BMs altogether.

    If they order the same colour and it is a little different that is okay!!! No one is going to be looking at them! The whole point is for you to stand out!! But even if they are slightly different in colour that is no big deal! Different shades of the same colour look really nice!! But if you really want her to get that lace one then tell her that! It's your wedding, remember that! I had a similar dilemma and it all turns out in the end! Good luck with the planning! I hope the bridesmaid dress shopping turns out for you!

    The colour will probably be a little different, but I think it can still work as the MOH can be a little different than the other bridesmaids. I think the question is, what's more important:saving money and having different shades, or, having the same shade and asking bridesmaids to pay more for their dress. Neither answer is wrong, it just depends what's important to you.

    I would chance getting the dresses from the different stores. Since your sister is the MoH, even if the color isn't exactly the same, it will be even easier to differentiate her as the MoH. And if for some reason the top doesn't look good, then you can find another top to go with the bottom part.
