Bridesmaid gowns!

by Tennesse Bloggette on April 13, 2010

Long time, no write, y’all.

Things have been uber busy, planning-wise, here in Tennessee, and I’m happy to report that we finally found the bridesmaid dresses.

I have eight bridesmaids, and NO ONE lives in the same town. In fact, I have a bridesmaid on every coast. And I had NO idea what we were going to do until I realized six girls were coming to our engagement party in Memphis a few weekends ago.

Since my cousin and sister were staying together, the three of us and my mom went to a dress shop early Saturday morning to scout out all the gowns I had liked online. Of the twenty of those, we found three that could potentially work for everyone.

That afternoon, once everyone got into town, the six girls, plus me, my mom and W’s mom, headed to the dress shop once again.

The vote was unanimous, and here is the final gown:

Not only is it gorgeous, but it was form-flattering on EVERYONE. And my eight girls are all built differently!

How did y’all decide on your bridesmaid gowns?

That dress is amazing! I actually wouldn’t mind wearing it as my actual bridal gown if it came in white! :)

I looked at Alfred Angelo! That dress is so pretty. I actually went with David’s Bridal because they had a lot of variety in dresses without straying from one color. I let my bridesmaids pick out any dress they wanted it just had to be in a particular color. The material had to be the same too because if not the color changes. My colors are dark brown and blue (cornflower to be exact). They are all wearing different brown dresses and then whatever blue accent they like.
