Dresses not ordered

I’ve been asking my BM’s to start ordering their dresses since May and now it’s 4 months out and still no orders have been made. I’ve pushed back the deadline I’ve asked them to order by at least 3x now. We’re ordering from Azazie and their production time can be about 3-4 weeks. With it now getting closer to fall/winter I’m scared of holidays getting in the way of production or weather messing up delivery. Idk how to gently nudge them in the right direction without seeming like I’m nagging or being a bridezilla. But if they don’t order their dress, I don’t want last min stress of trying to find something new for them to wear. I’m at the point where I don’t want or feel the need to remind grown women for like the 10th time to order their dress. I couldn’t even get them to tell me which dresses they liked to allow them to help pick the dress so I had to make a decision myself. Anyone have ideas on what to do?? I’m getting really frustrated and nervous about this.

I am in a similar situation.. We are using Azazie as well and all three of my BMs are trying to lose baby weight so they are stalling... Only 1 of the 3 has ordered. The other two have seen the 3-4 production time and have decided to push their luck, if you will, haha! I understand where they are coming from in wanting to keep trying to lose weight, but it is a little stressful. I just try to remain positive that everyone knows what they are doing and ultimately I have to let them stress over the outcome as I have bigger fish to fry!

They don't need reminders. They have the information to order the dresses, they know your wedding date. If they have them, great. If they don't, they can sit with the rest of the guests. Don't stress over something that you can't control.

I agree. Please don't micromanage adults. It only puts more stress on yourself and them

I would have your MOH reach out. My MOH sent a reminder text 1 week before I asked them all to order them by, just to let everyone know. Then after that, leave it up to the girls.

I had 10 bridesmaids and they all ordered from Azazie. Quite a few didn’t order until a month before the wedding and it was fine. I didn’t give them any reminders because I refuse to micromanage adults but they knew if they didn’t have a dress they would be a guest.

My wedding is November 24, and my girls ordered sept 3 from azazie with a shipping estimate of October 3. You still have time. I would just say, hey if you guys could order your dresses by October 31 (or whatever day you want) but it’s not too late yet at all.

My girls ordered from Azazie at the beginning of May for our August wedding and received them mid-June, and that's a busy time of year. Your BP is fine. Try not to stress over things more than you need to. If they have the information, there's nothing else you can do.

My bridesmaids ordered their azazie dresses in may for my September wedding and they came in july. There is still PLENTY of time! I would set a date that they need to have them by and leave it at that. Of they don't have their dresses in time, they can be guests.

Girl i know it can be a pain to tell grown ppl what to do! What i did was say the store required them to be ordered by a certain date (which they did) in order to arrive on time. Make a firm date to tell them instead of continuously extending the date.
