Bridesmaid attire to get ready

Cute pajamas!

Also let vendors comment. They give great advice and can't advertise.

I'd let them just wear what they are comfy in.

I wouldn't get anything with MOH or BM on it. They will never use it or wear it again.

I'm doing flannel shirts and leggings!

Thanks for the advice about vendors, bemyguest! And the giddy bride in me wants us all to match and have cute pictures, powers! Lol. And good point, britny!

I'm doing cotton or flannel pj sets- those robes are also cold

Love flannels and button down shirts!

I'd def use robes if I got them haha but I second the no MOH or BM. At first I was thinking I'd put their names but even that I feel like might be a turn off. So whatever I do I'd most likely not embroider it.

This has been my exact debate for a couple weeks.

Im longing for cute morning of pictures so I really have no idea what to do at this point.

I found cute pjs at Victoria Secret for them

I'm so glad to see a post about this. I was surprised to learn the general opinion on robes is that they're a waste. I was MOH in my best friend's wedding last year and I was really surprised (and a little disappointed) when she didn't give us robes (I thought that was pretty much the standard practice). I ended up getting my hair and makeup done in a regular shirt, and my hair got a little messed up when I had to pull my shirt over my head and put my dress on.

So now I'm debating whether I get my bridal party robes or not. I don't want them to be disappointed like I was, but if everyone thinks they're a waste, maybe I shouldn't. I'm getting married in July so I think something like flannel shirts will be too hot. Is the general consensus that it's okay to just skip giving them something to wear morning of?

@Greenleaf, yes there's no requirement to give everyone something to wear morning-of. It's good practice to wear a buttoned shirt (or robe, same function), so your hair doesn't get messed up as you experienced though!

I did monogrammed button down shirts, but all of my girls will re-wear them so I felt comfortable getting it for them (unlike the robe sitting in my closet waiting to be donated to goodwill). For those wanting cute pictures, I've seen mix and match photos where the girls are just asked to wear a flannel/button down/plaid shirt they already have, so everyone is still in a similar but personalized outfit!

How about whatever they want? they aren't your props, they can wear whatever the hell the deem fit.

Greenleaf- I doubt they'll be disappointed to miss out on a cheap ass robe, one less thing to toss in the trash after.

I agree with @Britny. If you get something with BM or MOH, they will never wear them again.

The pics look cute, but I'm just letting my girls wear whatever they want. I'll suggest shirts that are easy to get out of so hair and makeup isn't ruined.

Matching during getting ready does make for cute pictures. If you get them nice ones, they can use them again. This isn't treating them like "props", it's giving them a gift. SOME people actually like wearing robes.

@Kayla, I definitely love wearing robes! Lol

My girls are wearing whatever they want the morning of. They dont have to match each other. Let them wear whatever they are comfortable in

Depends on the season too! A friend of mine told me recently that the bride got them all onesies bc it was winter time

I got tanks bc I know it's what I would want to wear. I'm all for what's practical but it goes out the window a little bit once you factor in jewelry and such bc it's geared more towards your theme. I tried to stick with what they would want to wear again but it's difficult to prep for an entire bridal party of what everyone would wear again bc everyone is different. I personally didn't go with robes simply bc I never wear one.
