I set a theme of mint and yellow for my spring/summer wedding as it looks lovely and fresh. I thought i would have the adult bridesmaids in long mint dresses and flower girl in yellow. However, i'm having a complete nightmare finding nice mint maxi dresses that do not cost the earth. Found some lovely ones which the bridesmaids liked but cost £200 each! Was hoping to spend less than £100.
I'm wondering if i need to change the colour to a more popular colour (rather reluctantly)
What are your thoughts?

yes i have been looking on there, but most seem to be from china which i'm a bit worried about.
I was wondering whether to wait until the summer, it's daft i still have 18 months to go but am already worried!

Have looked into getting the dresses preloved? It also might be worth looking into She Who Must Not be Named (links on my wall).

Thank Sarah just looked at that site - looks good - have you bought anything from it?
Yes was thinking of a local dress maker but worried about the quality

I had this problem so I decided to make my own, pain in the bum to find the right material but have made all three dresses for £90. There is a pic in my album of the trial dress I made. I eventually went for a darker green as it was more complimentary on the bridesmaids.
