Dressing Up Your Entourage

Finding the perfect dress for your bridesmaids can be a trying ordeal. It is hard enough deciding on your perfect dress, can you imagine finding a dress that will compliment each of your bridesmaids.

Bridesmaid dresses take 8 to 14 weeks for delivery, start browsing early, visit your local bridal shop with a couple of your bridesmaids and have them try on a variety of silhouettes. Having a color motif in mind will help narrow the choices of designers and fabric that will work for you.

Measurement! Measurement! Measurement!
Bridesmaid and bridal dress sizes are not like street clothing. We recommend you have the professional seamstress who will alter your gown take your measurements for you. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO TAKE YOUR OWN MEASUREMENTS – THEY WILL BE WRONG! Always refer to the designer size chart when ordering as designers size charts varies.

It is not unusual to be between sizes, we recommend going with your largest measurement size. It’s easier to cut a dress down than to try to lose that last inch or two.

Remember to have fun planning ladies.
