    Well I don't know how to put a poll in but just looking for an honest opinion really...

    I'm having such trouble finding dresses for my 4 girls (seriously been like 2 years now) as they all have different styles and will be 13, 16, 22 & 23 (2 of which are my very opinionated sisters who will only wear what they like). So quite a big age gap as well. I was looking at teal but then I cant find anything I want in the colour I'm looking for or when I do the style is horrid. I have opened my colour choices to litterally ANYTHING but I am starting to really give up and was wondering has anyone thought of the idea of letting them dress themselves in any colour as long as they like it they can wear it? Because their styles and personalities are so different, it would just make it easier.

    Help I don't know what to do.

    Yeah both and nothing. I'd rather they be in the same dress or something completely different. To me it makes it look not up to scratch really so thats why im coming to this conclusion. I don't mind what they're in as long as they all like it and match.

    maybe sit them all down 1 night with a few different styles hun and explain how its upsetting you that they cant all decide on 1 and thats all you want is for them to like it and respect the fact its for your special day x

    Could do pastel colours? Then it would look right together. :)

    Do you mean different pastel colours StaceyP91? Thats an interesting notion...think thats an option maybe. And I'm afraid sitting down with altogether isn't an option as they are quite spread out and obviously different time schedules. x

    If your colour scheme is teal, what about different shades of teal, blue & green, more like peacock colours? Someone did a thread a couple of months back about that colour scheme & it looked really lush!
    You might have better luck having complimentary colours and styles rather than all matchy-matchy. People will know they're BMs as they'll have flowers I assume? Or a corsage would be pretty? Even an ivory/white sash on all of them to tie it not your dress would look sweet

    Same style but different shades. This is what i'm doing but in purple as I know one of my BMs wont want to wear bright colours.
