As a bride, the worst reaction you can have to your bridesmaids is invite them on the "Super-Fun bridesmaid dresses Shopping Trip!" after which drag them around from boutique to boutique all night on end. The "Super-Fun Bridesmaid Dress Shopping Trip!" is fun for about no one—including you. So here's the best way to save everyone lots of aggravation AND still get cute bridesmiad gowns for your friends.
Click the right path over to Weddington Way, then go ahead and take 2.5 seconds to produce an account. You give them basic info, much like your name as well as your wedding date, then you've access to browse almost 1,000 bridesmiad gowns. If you'd rather not take a look at hundreds upon hundreds of bridesmiad gowns (because that WOULD be pretty boring), you are able to sort them by, say, color and price, that is what I did here. ($460 for any mother of the bride pantsuits? No thanks!)
To limit the selection further, you are able to select a designer, wedding theme, length, fabric family, neckline, physique, season, and/or average customer ratings. (Whew!) Then while you start getting right down to a reasonable quantity of dresses, you add them for your showroom, in which you virtually store all of your faves.
Once your showroom is stocked, you share it together with your bridesmaids (as well as your mom and future MIL, or whoever, if you are so inclined) plus they can vote and discuss the different designs. Eventually, with the process of elimination, you ought to be able to narrow it right down to a few group-favorite styles, which you are able to order through Weddington Way or go put on at a bricks-and-mortar boutique. (I'd be SO fine doing everything online, since bridesmiad gowns are made to be altered, and you are able to virtually talk to a Weddington Way stylist about sizing and fit in advance. You can also give them a call on the phone, therefore it all seems super accessible.)
I've never crowd-sourced bridesmaid dress shopping before, but I'm really into this method. Especially after being dragged on the "Super-Fun Bridesmaid Dress Shopping Trip!" or 15 during my day.
Would you need to do all of your bridesmaid dress online shopping? Or do you think you are able to actually create a "Super-Fun Bridesmaid Dress Shopping Trip!" fun? (Or at least not miserable.) As a bridesmaid, will you be OK with a virtual shopping?
I'd be SO fine by using it.
