5 Tips for Successful Bridesmaid Dress Shopping

As an authorized Mori Lee Bridal retailer, we have the most amazing bridesmaid dresses in Miami to offer. You want the women standing next to you on your wedding day to look and feel spectacular. Brides of America can help you accomplish that, from the shopping experience all the way to the wedding day. Here are a few tips to help you and your girls find the perfect bridesmaid dresses.



Keep budgets in mind.

You have most likely been saving up for your wedding day, but the ladies that you ask to be in your bridal party probably haven't. Unless you have budgeted to buy all of the dresses for your girls, be mindful of what your friends can comfortably spend on a dress for your special occasion. Speak to each of them individually so that no one has to be embarrassed about finances in front of the entire group. When you make plans to ask the ladies to be in your wedding, this is the perfect opportunity to speak to them each directly. If they simply cannot afford to be a bridesmaid, you can still find something else special for them to do on the wedding day.


Have fun researching dress styles.

Everything is more fun when you turn it into a party. Grab a ton of bridal magazines, get together for coffee or cocktails, and make a big pile of everyone's favorite designs. If you all live in different towns and getting together isn't a possibility, do your research as a group online. Pinterest allows you to create boards and invite people to pin with you on them. That way you can all share your favorites and make it a virtual dress-picking party.


Alike, different, or similar?

Bridesmaids come in all shapes and sizes, and not everyone looks their best in the same styles or even colors. It is perfectly acceptable, and can even look amazing, to put your lovely ladies in different dresses. First and foremost, the bridesmaid gowns all need to complement your own wedding dress and fit in with the style of the wedding. You can choose the same dress style for everyone, but in different complimentary colors. Another option is to buy a dress in all the same color, or varying shades of it, but let each girl choose their own style. This is a wonderful way to make sure everyone gets something that they feel good in.


Don't wait to bridesmaid dress shop.

Once you find your dream wedding dress, go ahead and start looking for the bridesmaid dresses. They will need to be ordered no later than 6 months before the wedding date. This should allow plenty of time for the orders to come in, along with enough time for any necessary alterations.  


Decide on your initial shopping entourage. 

If you will be having quite a few bridesmaids by your side, you may want to pick only 1 or 2 of them to go on the first dress shopping outing. Too many differing opinions can make the entire process a lot more difficult than it needs to be. The small group can narrow down the dress choices for the entire group to pick from. Make sure that you schedule an appointment for each shopping trip so that you receive the store's uninterrupted attention. If any bridesmaids live too far away to join you, tell them to go to a dress store in their area and have a professional take their measurements to insure that they are correct. It can be risky to do it on your own if you are not used to it.
