    Hi all I know there have probley been loads of these but I am looking for 3 adult and 1 teenagers dress and the budget is tight! We are getting married in July and so I would like a summery dress for them all in a blue or green (would look at other colours), feel like I have been looking for ever and nothing seems right! Is it worth waiting for the summer collections to come out (not sure when that is) or can anyone suggest a good place to get them. I dont really want to get them from overseas and have simple run out of places to look HELP!!

    There's stylenotes that I know xXJoXx is getting hers from and I looked into them too. Huiyun kitty bay of e is worth a look too. How many do you need? I had a hunt in the sales and there were some gorgeous dresses around (esp. in Mon.soon) for that sort of money but as I needed 4 (two 8's and two 10's) I couldn't get enough in one style :(

    Yup I am getting mine from there as it works out £65 for the long gowns. I think the shorter styles are cheaper. Griff got hers from them and said they were amazing when she got them. They do zip or lace backs so if you choose to have them made with lace backs it will help to cut down on any extra fittings costs. They also do them in any colour you want and will even try to match a sample you send if you can't see what you want on the site.

    They will also do an adult style in children's sizes and alter the top to make it kiddy friendly. My adult is having a low cut v neck but the kids will be made to match but have a higher cut V. Its the same if you have the straight across the boobs strapless style they will put straps etc on for the kids.

    It means you can choose the style you want in the colour you want and get them all matching. They will also let you buy extra fabric if you want to make your own hankies and cravats to match and they make bags, shrugs and jackets to match too at a very good price.

    BHS are about the only high street store where I have seen them doing matching kids dresses though and they are still rather pricy unless they are in the sales.

    my sis is the younger bridesmaid and will be 15 so as long as the dress is suitable I am happy for her to have the same. Have been looking at all your suggestions and have seen a few things so will show them to the girls and see what we come up with. any more suggestions would still be great. Thanks ladies knew I could count on your help xx

    Try bonprix, they have some lovely dresses at a good price. I found some lovely blue ones on their party dresses which would suit a summer wedding. Good luck!
