• Start early. Most bridesmaids’ collections are on a 10-12 week order time. Plus, once you make the decision of what your gorgeous girls will wear, you need time for them to be measured and place their orders. {Oh yes, your fabulous friends just might put this off and wait til the last second. . .budget time for that last-minute friend. . .you’ll want it!}
• Do some homework. Websites these days are such great resources for photos and inspiration. Knowing what you don’t want can be just as useful as knowing what you do want. Check out Amsale, Monique Lhuillier, Alfred Sung, and Lela Rose for some really great maids styles. There is truly something for everyone!
• Use us as a resource! We have seen a little bit of everything! We have helped the lone bridesmaid find a fabulous little cocktail dress, and we have outfitted parties of 15.

• Mostly, enjoy yourself! This is one element of a very big day, and it should blend into the overall style and feel of your wedding. Don’t fret about pleasing absolutely everyone . . .your girls love you and said yes to being a bridesmaid because they want to bear witness to one of the most significant days of your life. If the dress is long and not short? Blue instead of grey? It’ll all be ok. For the rest of the maids details, let us know how we can help!
