bridesmaid dresses online purchasing...

If you have decided to purchase your dress online, go here...it is the least expensive option. Here is a 'how to' to take your own dress measurements. Once you get your measurements, you can go here to see the sizing chart for the dress.

The color choice is Shadow/ Mink. Shadow is a grey color and is the color of the dress, and Mink is a brown that will be the color of the accent ribbon. The Designer is Bari Jay and the dress style number is 815.

In order to avoid any rush delivery fees, I would be sure to order the dress by the last week of April...delivery time is 10-14 weeks.

...you are all going to look so beautiful! 

bridesmaid dresses info...

This website has the bridesmaid dresses for a discounted price. Leave it to Alison to find the good deals. Thanks, love.

I'm not exactly sure how it works, but it would be nice to see the dresses and perhaps have you lovely ladies try them before purchasing them online. Maybe we can make a date to go check them out during the time when I will be home in March. From what I've read, the standard wait after the order date is 12-16 weeks, so I would say that they should be ordered before the first of May. xo

fashion design student...

So, after thinking so much about wedding gowns, I had the thought of finding a fashion student or beginning designer to create my gown based on my vision. This way, the dress would be a unique piece and it would give us a chance to support a beginning artist. I remember my experience in design school...how many students were so talented and ambitious. And I recall how exciting it was, and how grateful I was for commissions to do the work that I loved. I still feel that way.

If anyone has any suggestions on choosing a designer, send me a message or post.
