Bridesmaids Robes VS Button Up Shirts

FutureMrsCaracciolo, on July 16, 2013 at 8:13 AM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 15

Trying to decide on whether to get robes or the oversized men's button ups for my Bridesmaids. Which would you prefer? I am leaning more towards the robes bc they could all use it again.

Also has anyone found a site to order the robes at a decent price?

    I personally like the robes more. I know you're not asking for other ideas, but we're doing pink zip-up hoodies since we have to run around a hotel.

    I like Erica's idea. Whenever I read about the robes, I think about how I would go to the salon to get my hair done in a robe.

    Thank you ladies! I love in input. I am having my hair stylist and make up artist come to us at my MILs house so it wouldn't be as weird in robes lol but I do love zip up hoodies. Have you ordered the zip ups yet? If so where from?

    I saw some great ones on Etsy recently. Sold individually or bundles. They were really pretty flowered ones.

    @Erica did you already get the hoodies? That is great idea.

    I personally love the robes bc I get way too hot in long sleeves. My only concerns with them would be that usually that silky satin material the robes are made out of causes this static friction with my hair.

    The zip ups sound really cute too!

    Yesterday, so I haven't gotten them in. We actually went with the fleece hoodies since I'm getting married in Nov. We customized them. The BMs are wearing "team numbers" on the back. The numbers represent how many years they've known me.

    I like the robes better. That's what I bought for my girls. I personally would use a robe more than an oversized man's t-shirt so that's how I made my decision.

    I wouldn't use either after the wedding, but as far as being comfortable the day of, I'd prefer a shirt to a robe.

    I'm doing the shirts, but not monogrammed. It will have only their first names on them. But it's a wedding in NC in July so figured they could wear shorts or leggings with the shirts the morning of....and my girls are weird anyway - they all love to lounge in oversized dress shirts Smiley smile
