Order dresses early on

We will finalize on the bridesmaid dress this weekend, that's when we are going in for the final fitting. I let them chose whichever shade of purple they like for their dress

I rented my wedding dress so I won't actually get to try it or see if again until early April. As far as wedding dress goes, I won't be having different ones for ceremony and reception. But I will be changing twice during the reception. Once for the tea ceremony and another for my ball gown

Thanks so much for this advice Chelsea!! I'll pass it on when new brides wonder when to look for their dresses!

Hi Eartha!! That's a great idea! What are your bridesmaids dresses going to look like? Will they be lavender? I can't wait to see how everything will look like!! What about your dress? I loved the one you chose in the quiz and said yours was similar! Will you have different dresses for the ceremony and reception?

I hope everything works our for you and the dresses! The store told me they could put my dresses on a fast track for the inconvenience but I said I would prefer a discount on a viel or something but they refused. I have plenty of time for the dresses luckily!

Thanks for sharing this with us.

I am also a little worry on the timeframe of the arrival time of the bridesmaid dresses.

My wedding is going to be in April, I am bringing my girls to order the dresses this weekend and hopefully it can arrive before X'mas then they will have enough time to do alterations or whatnot without feeling the time is too cramped

I would have been extremely stressed out if it didn't work out the way it did!

Eck! You are SO freaking lucky.....that could ahve been a BIG mess. The wedding faeries were kind to you

Great advice!
