Oh I forgot the bridesmaids dresses are in "apple" red!

Yes i think they go well together. Your dress is very fancy and princess-like and the bridesmaids dresses are just as sophisticated and beautiful. Red is a great color! I just got engaged so i like hearing what people choose for their wedding! good luck =)

I love the bridal gown - simple lines, elegant bodice, full of class, fit for a queen. I love the bridesmaid's dresses - rich color, full of class, love the simple lines, but I think a couple of things are a little much (and you asked). Remember the bride is the focal point and nothing should take away from that. I'd probably go with something like style 81509 (or a strapless style with similar lines)- simple and elegant - without the swoop on one side and without the rhinestone pin/clip. If the bridal gown was real flashy and full of pearls, sequins, rhinestones, etc., the bridesmaid dress would be more in-line. The bridal gown is to die for gorgeous, but don't let anything about the bridesmaid's dresses outflash or detract from your elegant trip down the aisle. If you explain this to your consultant at David's Bridal, she can help you tone the bridesmaid's dresses down just a bit by recommending a different style. The color is gorgeous and would make you stand out like a princess.
PS The candy apply red was what my daughter's bridesmaids wore.

I love both dresses, but after reading the other answers you may want to take a bridesmaid or two to Davids Bridal and see how the dress looks in person. If it does not look right or if in person the style is not as flattering, there are a lot of other styles in Apple. I wouldn't worry about the dresses matching yours, it really doesn't matter. PLus I have never seen a wedding gown that clashes.
This one is one I wore in my friends wedding and it looks good on any size.

One more suggestion, have your bridesmaids get dyeable shoes that they find comfortable, don't go with this style, Niki:

Even though it is adorable and I love the shoes, my feet were KILLING me and I ended up with blisters on my pinky toe that were as big as my pinky toe!!
Good luck!

Your dress is very, very pretty, but-Have you seen the bridesmaid dress in person yet? I hate to tell you but it's ugly IMO. It's heavy, it's bulky, and will make anyone who is above a size 8 look like a cow. Strapless is tough-I would go for a halter instead. To be totally honest, I wasn't impressed with David's Bridal. I highly recommend checking out any mom and pop bridal boutiques you have in your area. My girls got a gorgeous Alfred Angelo dress for $100 and it looks great on all of them-from a size 4 to a size 20.

well if the bridemaids dresses were that blue color i would say yes your gown and the bridemaids gowns will be fine but you are telling us that the bridemaids have to wear apple red? i don't think it goes that color just doesn't seem right how bout a lighter shade of purple for the bridemaids?

I think that your gown goes perfectly with your bridesmaids gowns because of the fact that they're both cut the same way on the top and everything.

I think they look great together =)
~ I considered getting that same dress for my bridesmaids (didn't due to alteration costs) The great thing about the bridesmaids dress it when my bridesmaid was trying it on she noticed it hugged her curves in all the right places even thought she wasn't wearing supportive underwear! LOL!

Yes they will look very nice together, I assume by the look of these dresses you are having a quite formal wedding? If so, these dresses will go very nicely. If you are having less than a formal wedding, I think these dresses will not really go, i.e too dressed up for the style of wedding.

I think they look great.... but do make sure that all of your bridesmaids can pull off a strapless gown... you dont want one of them to either stand out or feel completely miserable and uncomfortable. Not everyone can wear strapless...
