Bridesmaid dresses

You probably have looked recently, but Le Chateau JUST released their holiday/winter stuff... Some beautiful dresses there, as low as $150.

Because your wedding isn't til next August, you could also wait for a bridesmaid dress sale to come on at David's Bridal (I think they have an annual $99 sale at some point)...

My #1 thing I realized through the bridesmaid dress process is, the best way to find something that suits everyone, is to let them all pick something that suits them. The girls can find a dress that flatters them best, in the colour you pick. I have my 3 bridesmaids in 3 different dresses from David's Bridal that they each picked, but they are all in the Midnight navy colour. Looks great! They will also all look better in photos because they will be confident in the dress they picked. Just make sure if you go that route, that they tell the consultant which colour it HAS to be, then they'll make sure they only try on ones that come in your colour.

If you don’t mind online shopping www.1861.ca is great and very reasonably priced. I’ve bought a lot of dresses from them and my maid of honour purchased her dress there as well. The only thing is that my bridal party can have different dresses as long as it’s around the same colour. It may be harder picking 1 dress for everyone as not all the dresses come in every size at this store.

I haven't purchased from there. but I am LOVING the dresses on Azazie. they even have a deal where you for a small fee you can have a dress shipped to you to try on. plus they will do an online consultation to help your bridesmaids measure themselves. and the prices are pretty good.

Have you looked at any online stores? I know you are not able to try it on, but depending on the dress most places only need a couple measurements. Jj's house has some good dresses, and for her or for him (I have not looked at shipping to Canada on this one)

Also Davids Bridal sometimes has some good sales on dresses.

Local bridal shops might also carry some dresses that you can find across the country and will do discounts depending on the season.
