    My sister's is beautiful. Can't comment on the other colours but the fabric itself and the stiching and beadwork are amazing at the tiniest fraction of the price of the stores here. x

    Guys... we are on a tiny budget and I really took a chance on them.... they are stunning and beautifully made... truly can't fault them. Also, design is beautiful, covers all lumps and bumps and looks great on any size. My Bm's are a size 8, 12, and 16 and they all look totally amazing... also size 16 has major confidence issues and feels great in it. They fit around the bust only and then drape down, also lace up back so it doesn't matter if they lose a bit/ put on a bit of weight. I love them. Pictures do not do them justice! will put link on my wall. x

    soon to be mrs moo

    Hi
    I got mine from Debenhams and shoes from Barratts
    5xBM x £72 = £360 Dress
    5xBM x £18 = £90 Shoes
    £450 for the lot and they are all Adults sizes 8,12,16,16 & 22
    £150 each is more than doable

    Hi,

    I wanted my bridesmaids in black so I decided high street was the best bet. We spent all day In Milton Keynes and the favourite was from next £40 each - so we got 4 of those... done!! Was made up cos the other favourite was £135 from coast!! I bought them some jewellery and hair pieces at a later date and asked them all to sort their own shoes as they are all so different just as long as the shoes are red.

    So yes, can be done.

    Here comes the bride......

    High Street- that's what I did. Took advantage of a storecard discount, although the new government legislation means they can't offer an opening discount any more :(
    Midseason sales and online discounts are a good way to go.

    Little word of advice though- if you're buying them months in advance, make sure the BMs keep an eye on their weight. One of my BMs accidentally went up a dress size and we had a massive nightmare getting it replaced (I think I may have posted it when it happened- they wanted to charge us £50 extra for the exchange because, even though it was the same dress, the dress we had was produced the previous season and had gone in the sale)

    I got mine from a local shop but they were by Quiz. There just chiffon maxi dresses but only worked out to £59 each and still look just as good as bridesmaid dresses you get from bridal shops!

    Ive been looking at a few websites for bridesmaid dresses and they look really nice and for a gd price. You send them the measurements and pick the colour you want and they send it out but you obv cant return if it isnt what you expected or it doesnt suit or something. So just curious if anyone has ordered theres of this type of website before and what your experience was x
