Do these BM dresses work together? I hope so- they're ordered!

    I'm having a little bit of anxiety now that we ordered all the dresses. The girls (eight of them!) are wearing a dress from the Dessy Group- either After Six or Lela Rose. I really didn't want them to be matchy-matchy, and having had to wear BM dresses that I didn't love before, I really wanted them to like what they got. I have 8 BMs that are all over the place- age-wise, style-wise, and figure-wise- I just want them to feel beautiful and comfortable-- I feel like those pictures always turn out the best, even though the matchy-matchiness of traditional BM dresses do always look good in photos. I just need a little reassurance that it works together-- I'm starting to get nervous now that I actually ordered them!!! Help!

     

    Oh, and the model is wearing Harlow by Maggie Soterro- just like me! :)Do these BM dresses work together? I hope so- they're ordered! :  wedding BMdresses

    I like the different styles and I think they do go well together--also like them with your dress!!

    Looks great!  I love how you were able to compile this picture.  Are they going to be the same color or these two shades?

    Well they are all "charcoal gray" most in chiffon... but they do look different colors! They didn't have the charcoal gray in the store, so not EXACTLY sure what it will turn out like... but even if there are different shades, I don't mind that. I think it maybe adds a little depth. Or maybe I'm just trying to convince myself of that :) But I've seen other pictures where they were different shades and I liked it, so.... :)

    I LOVE it!  Plus - I feel that the girls will feel beautiful because they picked one that looks great on their body - thus resulting in a better overall look to everyone!  They will be glowing and so will you! :)

    I love it! Don't stress, they look great without being overly matchy.

    I LOVE it.  This is exactly what I wanted, all my bridesmaids in a different grey dress, but they wouldn't play.  I took them all shopping one at a time, and they ALL picked the same dress.

    I think they look great together - very complementary, especially all in a similar shade like that! :)

    Oh my word! This looks great! I love the subtle differences in color and style, and I'm sure your bridesmaids are ecstatic that they get to wear a dress they love! Great job, SDHoneybee!

    The Lela Rose dresses with the rosettes are my absolute favorite bridesmaid dresses. I really wanted to get those for my girls but they were two expensive. I ended up going with an After Six one shoulder dress.

    I think what you have chosen will look amazing!
