Another Very Important Dress







Or should I say 8 other dresses! In case you haven't figured it out, I am talking about bridesmaids dresses. Long ago I fell in love with mismatched bridesmaids dresses like these:

I absolutely love the coordinating colors and unique look of each bridesmaid. I think it is an awesome way to allow each girl to have their own style, and feel comfortable. That being said, I didn't know how to do this with 8 girls realistically, and still end up with a semi-coordinated style.

So I decided if I couldn't have mismatched colors, I would at least have mismatched styles! I decided on a purple/gray color (not really sure how I came to that decision), and knew that I wanted long chiffon dresses (light enough for summer but still have a more formal feel!).

Enter Bari Jay chiffon dresses in Wisteria:

These are only 5 of about 30 options I gave to my bridesmaids, and in all the dresses range in price from 130-200 dollars (with options at all price points). I'm pretty excited to see what dresses my maids pick, and hope this makes them all comfortable at the wedding.

Overall, this was one of my easiest decisions, which is pretty surprising considering how long it took me to pick a wedding dress!

Did you surprise yourself with your decisiveness?
And do you have any experience with mismatched bridesmaids dresses? How did it go?
