the (high) price of being a bridesmaid

Where are people finding BM dresses for less than $100? I haven't seen anything in stores that cheap at all.

@cavan davids bridal has dresses under $100

@cavan- We went shopping in the mall because none of us liked any bridesmaid dresses in the shops, and only ended up spending 60 on each!

Also, I'm not asking my BMs to spend anything- I paid for the dresses, and I will pay for hair and makeup. They can wear whatever shoes they want.

When I was at David's Bridal the dresses we found (and liked) were $179. And we've done the mall thing during prom/grad time as we thought there would be a great selection but no luck at all. Our next step is bridal salons but I expect them to be pricey.

It may be because I am having a formal evening event that requires long dresses. But I can't imagine having my BM's in short dresses in winter.

I love this BM dress cut:

And it's $60 now!!!

I'm still not sure if I want a MOH and BMs yet though... Still thinking about who I want to ask, if anyone at all. FH is also wavering on this. Don't want to hurt anone's feelings by leaving them out or not giving them MO distinction if they feel they "deserve" it or something silly.

Wow my girls got to pick there dresses two bought dresses under 100. and i dont care what shoes they wear as long as they are black.. the bridal shower will be done by family no expenses there. the bachelorette party will be done my MOH (who i did hers) and my ideas will keep us mostly at my place with a passion party for some of the entertainment. really dont want her to spend to much i spent about 200 on hers but i got a hotel. i am the queen of cheap though.
