whats everyone's opinion on having bridesmaids with different colored dresses and different styles, I have 8 bridesmaids, 4 teenagers and 4 adults, the teenagers will wear anything however the adults are different body shapes. so dont think ill be able to get them in the same dress. I was thinking to put the adults in the same colour but letting them have different styles to suit their figures and putting the teenagers in another colour, what does everyone think of this? thanks jo

I think it looks fine, and far better than trying to fit everybody into an unflattering dress...it also might help avoid diva bridesmaid syndrome! Xx

I think you should go for it. Not everyone suits the same colour or dress shape do it makes sense.
Or you can do alternative shades of the same colour?
CommentAuthorlizzylou
I'm doing this. I think it's a much better idea than trying to squeeze everyone into the same dress! Much less stressful to!
I had different colours, and my MOH had a slightly different style. her skirt was the same but she had a different neckline

Different colours can look fab and like the other girls have said can be more flattering than trying to find a dress that suits everyone!! x

Sorry if anyone isnt a fan but i remember the film of Sex and the city and there were 3 bridesmaids in different colours and style n it looked amazing! but obviously they would... i wanted my BM's to wear same colour n different style dresses, or possibly similar dresses and and only slightly different colours... hmmm

I don't see why you can't do that. The last thing you want is having your BM's looking/feeling silly just so that they match i like the idea of having the same colour but different styles :-) x

Laurajo, yes I did make them all.......loved doing it...
and yes......I LOVED Sex in the City and I think I got my inspiration for the different colours after watching the wedding, I even had the same colour dress as Carrie....

I think it can look fab in different colours and not everyone suits the same style/colour so this would solve that x x
CommentAuthorSam
I think different colours and styles is a very good idea :D
CommentAuthorClareS
I gave my bm's the choice of different shades of brown, or different styles of dress. In the end they're all having the same mocha colour but slightly different styles - main dress is the same, but I think they're all having different type of straps ie 1 is halterneck, 1 is 2 straps and 1 is either 1 strap or no straps x
CommentAuthorhollybobs

Yeah he got out, good job he did because if I had have smashed the bouquet in his face it would have knocked his head off his shoulders......I had a brooch bouquet weighing 1.5kg!
