just wanted peoples opinions as ive found the bridesmaids dresses i want for my bms they are perfect they fit in with my theme and a really good price too! i showed my mum and she told me her friend who is also a friend of mine has chosen them for her bms but in a different colour her wedding is 8 months before mine and im worried she will think im copying and get annoyed but i really have fallen in love with them!! i dont know what to do :( xx

If you're really worried what she thinks maybe run it by her, but tbh I can't see why she would - it's not like your two wedding dresses are the same! If they're nice dresses and the girls will look and feel good in them then I say go for them. I know I wouldn't mind a friend having the same dress as me, and if it's 8 months later and a different colour the vast majority of people won't even realise :)

thanks. i really hope so. she hasnt showed me them yet so maybe if i beat her to it she might realise im not copying as i genuinely didnt know we had picked the same until my mum said. my bms love them too. my sister is going to be both our bridesmaids so that could be tricky haha x

Seriously, I really really don't think it matters, especially since they're different colours! There are only a limited number of dress styles in the world after all! And if her wedding is before yours anyway, even if she did have a problem, you won't be stealing her thunder!

yea i guess your right i just dont want an atmosphere on my wedding day and i know some people turn into bridezillas haha. im sure your right and im worrying for nothing. x
but they will look totally different in another colour anyway......its not like you are stealing her ideas....I wouldnt even tell her TBH. but maybe thats just me?
I can resist anything but temptation

If it were me I'd mention to her, otherwise she'd maybe wonder why you didnt say when your wedding comes round and she knows you've seen hers at her wedding, when there's really nothing to it anyway. I wouldnt mind, esp when your weddings after hers - it's not like you're pinching her ideas and getting married before her. Just tell her you'd shown the bm dresses you're having to your mum and she said they were the same as hers... and compliment her on her good taste :) x

I agree with Jill, you are obviously not stealing anyones ideas and they will look different but i think it would be nice to mention it to her. I really wouldnt mind either :)
There are so many people out there who will tell you
what you can't do.
What you have to do is turn around and say, "watch me"!!
