MY Bridesmaids!

Since I'm on the subject of bridesmaids, I thought I would go ahead and let you know that after much searching and debate, I've finally made a decision about what I want my bridesmaids to wear! (YAY).  This was a particularly difficult decision for me because I have such a strong hatred for traditional bridesmaid dresses. I just can't stand the unoriginality of almost every single one of them. I want my girls to look and feel their best on my wedding day – not feel like they paid $300 for a dress that they hate. Plus, all of my girls are so differently built. How was I ever going to find a dress to complement them all?

The other day I came across a picture. THE picture that made me go, "There! That's exactly what I want!" 



And here it is! I couldn't be more excited about it. I've always like the whole mismatched look, but had never been sure if it was right for me or my girls. But after seeing this picture, I am in love. I love the colors. I love the length. I love how they are so different and yet perfectly coordinated.

I informed all of my girls the other day that I wanted them to all buy their own dresses. They could choose whatever they want as long as it's long and in the general color family. I don't care where they get them or how much they are – just have a dress my September 29, and we'll be good! They were all really excited about it, and so and I. I'm just excited that I have made a DECISION. Yes!

After watching millions of wedding shows, make sure its an elegant color in the same hues. However, if your dress is strapless no one else should be.

You need to also give all of them a the picture in this blog so they have an idea of your vision. Your pictures will be forever, lol.

This was one of my toughest decisions as well. I finally found the perfect colour and helped each girl find their perfect dress! It was a long and tiring process but I can't wait to see them all together the day of!

@ Rashelle: I was thinking the same thing! At a glance, I thought you two were in someone else's wedding! Then I read the intro and thought, ahhh... close enough! :)

@ Shardi: LOVE the idea. I've been a bridesmaid a couple of times and will never wear my dresses again. And you need only to check out my FB pics to see how my boobs handled the whole strapless thing... Eesh. Comfortability is key to a happy bridal party! So excited for you! :) YAY!
