Bridesmaid dresses - where to look?

Options
I've been looking for bridesmaid dresses in the shops but I can't find what I'm looking for in the right colour at the right price.

So I was thinking of ordering from one of the Asian online places... I've been looking at Milly, Landy and Light in the Box - just wondering if there's any other to try and whether anyone has used other places?

  • It depends on what colour you want - www.jewlzbridal.co.uk is where I bought my wedding dress and we'll be getting two of the bridesmaid's dresses from there too x

    My bridesmaid dresses came from there and they were fantastic quality and a gorgeous colour.
    Officially a non-smoker but still rounder than recommended :p
  • We got married in august and found that all wedding shops were charging around the £120 mark for bridesmaid dresses so we did our homework and eventually got ours from www.promqueen.com and they worked out at just under the £120 for 2 adult dress including delivery and import duty / tax.

    They are fantastic quality and fitted our bridesamaids like a glove apart fom having to take a little off the length or about £30 for the 2 at a local dressmakers we thought this was a super saving.

    As for the childrens dresses who are all under 7 years, old we got theirs from woolworths they aren't a proper bridesmaids dress but lookeked fantastic, these were £13, but when we got to the till the were discounted automatically and we ended up getting all 3 for £20.

    Hope this helps :j

  • I got my dresses from Littlewoods, they were £79 each and they are absolutely fabulous! Will be getting my flower girls dresses from Next. I had thought about going down the landy/milly route but the wedding isn't something I want to take risks on so played in safe with dresses I could easily return!
  • My best friend get marriaged on Sep. She got her wedding and bridesmaid dresses from sweetsend factory shop. Looks brilliant. You can go to the shop for fitting.
  • I have decided to order my dresses from Landy, and am going for this one

    in a midnight blue kind of colour with ivory sash.

    I ordered for one of my bridesmaids last night, and was planning to receive that dress, and if it's all ok, order the other two.

    However Landy have recommended I order them all at once, so that they are from the same dye batch of material, so no colour variation. It'll save on postage and they'll all arrive together - I am a bit worried about timescales if I have to wait for one to arrive, then the other two, and with chinese new year - my wedding is in Feb.

    So I am thinking this might be the best thing to do - but I am scared!! It should be ok though, it's quite a plain dress that should suit any figure, it'll be made to fit them, and I can't really go too far wrong with the colour... Just is a bit crazy buying 3 dresses without seeing them!

    One of my bridesmaid's dad owns a tailors shop, so if they need altering, at least I know I won't get ripped off.
