Bridesmaid dress shopping

Kevin, on January 13, 2020 at 1:46 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 6
So my sister is my MOH and lives out of state. All my three other bridesmaids all live local to me. I’m trying to start the process of getting Bm dresses from David’s bridal. My sister can’t afford to come down just for a weekend to go shopping. She said to go ahead and have my three girls all go together to see what they like and just tell her afterward. She is the pickiest dresser and very self conscious so if they pick something strapless she would not wear it and throw a big fit, trust me I know my sister. I want to include her so this doesn’t happen but she won’t be able to come down. Should we face time her whole at the store or do something else to include her. Help?!

    Can you pick out a color and fabric at David’s and let the girls choose their own style of dress?

    I was looking at that, because I like the mismatched look, but still have them be in the same style field. I know they all want to do a big shopping day together, but without my sister there I don’t want her to feel left out

    Send her some links of 👗es that will fit her body type and budget.


    Let her select a few and have her rank them 1st-3rd, etc...
    Then pick the one that would look the best on her and coordinate with your vision.
    Try to also be considerate of her budget.

    Could you have your sister come down the same weekend of your bridal shower if you're having one? That way she knocks out two events with one trip. If you have your bridal shower 3 months before the wedding, that should be plenty of time for bridesmaid dresses to come in.

    Unfortunately we had to plan the shower less than a month out from the wedding. Wedding is first week of October and the shower will be over Labor Day so she could spend the weekend as well as other family members coming from far.

    I was a bridesmaid in 2017 and the bride picked long dresses & a color from DB, then we picked our own dress. I would send your sister pictures & everything so she still feels included.
