MSE Bridesmaid dresses...where to start?!

dingdongavoncalling

I have three adult bridesmaids.

We have budgeted £100 per bridesmaid which we originally thought was sufficient...now I'm not so sure!

Does anyone know where I can source cheaper dresses from? I've looked on ebay but sellers with more than one to sell all seem to be from China..and I've heard negative things

it depends what you want but BHS are lovely. Plus if you see what you like / try on in store then there are always loads of voucher codes floating around to get them cheaper from their website

Just checked actually and some of the bridesmaid dresses are reduced as low as £27 right now!

Using a high-street store also helps if your bridesmaids are in different parts of the country as they can all try on without having to get togeher.. plus their styles come in the same lots of colours I think so if one style didn't suit all they could still "match" ..

(I got my wedding dress from there for £57 with voucher codes and love it! )

Here is the link to their dresses. These are standard dress sizes. They have a shop in Birmingham where you would go to get the made to measure rather than ready made dresses.

Of the two dresses for my sister - mine fit OK but the other one needed further adjustments - but they do adjustments for free/minimal price. Have a look at the reviews of the ready made ones on eb*y.

Great, thanks, was the quality good?
It's a bit far for us to travel, but I guess we could have them posted and do alterations here? x

I've seen these dresses recommended on another wedding forum but I've got no personal experience of them, sorry: http://www.inoneclothing.com/product/multiway-bridesmaid-dress/
