Answer 1

I like this bridesmaid dress the best.. http://davidsbridal.com/bridesmaids_bycolor_detail.jsp?stid=2042&sid=15553&cfid=34 ... I'm just hoping all of the girls aren't too busty and can pull off the strapless, doesn't seem like they really have a choice though. I really like the 2nd junior bridesmaid dress, but feel that neither jr. b-maid dresses matches the b-maids dresses. So if it were me I would look for an alternative jr. b-maid dress. Best wishes to your friend!

Answer 2

Alright for the bridesmaids dress I would have to go with the first one! It is simple and elegant and with a brown sash or bow that would look amazing! I really like the 1st junior bridesmaids dress because it's simple and not drawing the attention away from the bride. You don't ever want something that is going to attract from the main event! The flower girl dress I abosolutley ador!

The bridesmaids dress is nice and elegant. It doesn't have beading around the underarm part so it doesn't irritate you as much when you holding flowers or anything else! or dancing! The others were ok but I would go for the top one so you can add that brown to it!

Also for the flower girl there is a flower baket that you could add to that to add more of your colors such as this here

http://davidsbridal.com/accessory_detail.jsp?stid=2557&prodgroup=191

this you can put either the turquoise or the brown and it would look absolutley amazing! Oh there is also a ring berrer pillow as well!

Just keep in mind that you want all of the attention on the bride and not anything else! So try and keep simple yet elegant at the same time! If the bride doesn't have any of the ruffles in her dress I wouldn't reccommend have the flower girl or bridesmaids with any ruffles!

Give me best to the bride to be

Answer 3

Okay, this is my opinion and take it as you may. It really depends on daytime or nightime wedding If daytime the last bridesmaid dress. If it is a night time wedding it is going to be more formal so my choice would be this one http://davidsbridal.com/bridesmaids_byco... because it has a waistline that pulls the stomach in so if any bridesmaid isn't shaped exactly right that will help and won't be funny looking. It is also the most formal and goes the best with that wedding dress because of the beading design. The Jr Bridesmaid dress should be the 1st pick because of the beading also the other one would not go with the rest of the dresses and the flowergirl dress is cute as can be. These are really some things that need to be considered in planning a wedding, you want the dresses to flow but not necessarily matchy matchy, also think about a different style of the beaded type dress for maid of honor, usually they have a little bit of a different dress.

Answer 4

I suggest that she chooses the color and lets her bridesmaids each choose a style they like out of a preapproved list. Make sure all of the styles have one thing in common, like the fabric or maybe the length, so they still coordinate. Identical bridesmaids are no longer required and the style that's flattering on one person may not be on all of the bridesmaids. Many weddings these days even feature bridesmaids with different color dresses! This makes it more interesting. Good luck!

Answer 5

6 and 7, the others arent formal enough for that wedding gown.

ETA: 1st for the Jr bridesmaid.

For the flower girl, it depends on her age. My daughter is 5 and a flower girl this saturday, she tried this dress on and it was VERY mature, this dress would work for an older flower girl, but not on a younger one, so be sure the bride knows this, its not something you think of if you dont have kids, so take it from a mom, some of their dresses are made for older kids and not the younger ones and if the Mom of this girl objects to this dress (because the other flower girl's mom and I had to say no to this one and another dress) tell your friend to listen to her, she knows what she's talking about. You dont want a sweet little girl looking like a hootchie walking down the aisle, you want them to be sweet and look like little girls.

Answer 6

http://davidsbridal.com/bridesmaids_bycolor_detail.jsp?stid=2042&sid=15553&cfid=34 that is a great one I think that would go great with the floral design to the wedding gown. I tried on that dress when I was getting married, absolutely gorgeous I just couldn't pull the look off! Congrats to the bride!

Answer 7

When deciding, take into consideration the body shapes and sizes of the women going to wear the dresses. When I was a maid of honor the brides mom had everything taken over and my shape (curvy, with large breasts) was not taken into consideration and the dress looked horrible even with the fitting. I noticed all the dresses were sleeveless. How to the women feel about that?

For the Jr dresses, I like the first one a lot.

Answer 8

For the bridesmaids I love #2 and #5 but in the color Apple Red to match the back of the brides dress. Jr. Bridesmaid I like #2 and the flowergirl dress is adorable.

Answer 9

I like this bridesmaid dress: http://davidsbridal.com/bridesmaids_bycolor_detail.jsp?stid=2333&sid=7985&cfid=34

It's simple, classy, elegant, and likely to be able to be worn by lots of different body types very well.

I prefer the first junior-bridesmaid dress - same basic reasoning.

Answer 10

I like the 4th one as a short dress and the 5th one as a formal. Her wedding dress is very simple in the front so you dont want the bridesmaids dress to outshine the brides gown.
