    Hi All,
    I am getting married in May 2014 and am struggling with my bridesmaids dresses.
    They all know what they like and have picked a style that suits them all but I am having a problem finding anything for them.
    What I need is somewhere that will do ROYAL BLUE dresses in the same style ranging from age 5 to size 20UK (one size up for adjustments).
    Because I have 3 20 years olds, a 13 year old, a 6 year old and a 4 year old, I need a style that will suit the younger ones without making the older ones look baby-ish and vice versa.
    Does anyone have any idea where I can go for this?
    Thank you in advance.

    Why dont you look for different styles for the younger ones? You could have them in the same fabirc dress but a more appropriate style?

    I can't help much with where to get them as I ended up making mine (google infinity dresses, or two bird dresses) I know alot of people have gone to she who must not be named.

    Also when in may do you get married? I am on the 4th x

    hi hun tbh i think u may struggle with this as not many adult dresses will come in junior sizes either... what is age appropriate for an adult will not be for a child and vice versa.... i dont think you will get the same style for both... under 12's are generally flowergirls and will have a white childish dress, over 12s are known as junior bridesmaids and their dress will come with straps x

    Check out BHS twist and wrap dress! I have these and there is so much material on each dress,one of my bm is pregnant and isn't an issue at all. And I'm sure they have introduced a royal blue one too, I was on the website today looking at their 2014 wedding range xx

    I have that same problem so ended up getting two different bridesmaid dresses for the younger ones in the same colour that I am wearing from hams at deb and then I got the grown up bridesmaids grown up dresses

    aslong as the colour material is the same the younger ones look good in different style for there age , most bridal stores or even mags show the bms in sameish style / colour x

    I agree with the girls, as long as there is that royal blue colour somewhere, you could always make the younger ones wear something for themselves. That's what I'm doing with one of my bridesmaid's daughter. She'll be coming up to 6 when I get married and she is into all the girly princesses stuff, so I'm making it a little game with her and not making her dress match her mum's, so she feels more princess like! As stupid as it sounds!

    Ooh mrs hands you too? Did you have trouble sourcing your material? I had a right mare trying to find the right green for mine! Ended up paying £8/m buts as long as its the right colur it still comes in cheaper!

    I would put the six year old and four year old in little white dresses with a royal blue bow or sash or something like that. You could even get white dresses and add the blue on yourself. I would try to match the three twenty year olds together, and then find something different but in the same colour for the thirteen year old.
