I'm going dress shopping with my girls this weekend, and I want to get some ideas. I told them I would try to keep it under $200. I have just about every body shape imaginable, so I would love to see your bridesmaids dresses!
I got it in a Tahiti colour and workd well with most body shapes. dessy collection number 2732
Here is mine, I am getting them from a China Dress maker:

But I considered this from David Bridal for $79.99
The only reason I didnt buy these was they didnt have the color I wanted them in.
I needed this color;
and
they had it in the orange but not the Bright Rust Red color and I wanted the girls to match!
David Bridal has a lot of dresses on sale....most of them under $80!
Cant wait to see what you picked....be sure to post pictures!
what we did to save money was to order the dresses from an online vendor. we went with bestbridalprices.com they actually have a retail store in illinois, but their website has all the major designers and dresses. we ordered dessy alfred sung dresses for $135, and in the bridal salon we looked at they wanted $265! we saved so much, and the dresses arrived in about 8 weeks. it ended up working out really well for us, and we got much nicer dresses than we could have otherwise.
We went with Ann Taylor dresses, and if you time it right, you can get 40% off discounts, which were super helpful! It was pretty easy since the girls already knew what sizes they were.

My girls selected their own dresses but they're all under $200. I believe they were each around $180 but they got 10% off since I bought my dress at the same salon...
MOH - AA Style 7133 (hers will be all burnt orange)

BM EL - AA Style 7070

BM EM - AA Style 7006


$99. From Etsy. They are convertible dresses, so they will all be worn differently.
These are Impressions. I think they are style #1668. My jr BM has a different Impressions dress that straps were added to.

^^ plus 30% coupons haha i'm trying to be nice to my girls, I could never tell them to buy a dress for more than this, I'd feel awful for financially burdening them
My girls wore dresses from Dessy's After Six line (although we ordered them online because it was way cheaper than the bridal salons). We paid $135 each.
Here's a second picture where you can see the length and such.
my ladies ranched froma size 00 to a size 24, i found my girls dresses on the davids bridal outlet!! for only 65 dollars!! regular price was 165, plus i got free shipping and they came in only 4 days and were brand new , never even tried on!! i had them go try on a dress at davids bridal to get the size right and they were perfect!!!

Alfred Angelo dresses, with tax and discount (I also wore an AA dress) were $164.
My BM dresses were by Jade/b2 (I think?). They came to just a little under 150 after tax/shipping. My advice is to use your imagination. I didn't really like the dress when my BMs tried it on in the store (below) but they liked it because it was super comfortable and was the same material as my dress... plus my one BM thought it would look really awesome if they did different colors which hadn't occurred to me. It was a little bit of a leap of faith but they liked it so we ordered it in the 3 colors, and got it shortened to knee length (same price as to do a simple hem) and I LOVED them. And one of them at least is going to wear hers again for another wedding... which is always the goal right? Pictured below as on the wedding day, and below that on the day we found it.


@CorgiTales: Every time I see your BMs, I fall in love all over again! They looked gorgeous!! It all came together perfectly.
Here are mine... Alfred Angelo 7016. I believe they were about $150.
A bridesmaid and the 9 year old junior bridesmaid... we got the same dress for the JBM and just altered it down to fit:

Bridesmaids and flower girl:

My girl's dresses were Betsey Johnson (on sale), David's Bridal, and 2 of them were prom dresses from Macy's junior department. They were all in the $150 range. I added patterned tights, sky-high heels, peacock fascinators and a chunky cocktail ring. I think they looked great!


Here's my MOH's dress. I think it was $170, but they gave her an additional 15% off because I bought my wedding dress at the same salon. We both absolutely love it, and she can't wait to wear it!


These are the BM dresses
Maid of Honor

Matron of Honor
They're all from David's Bridal
My girls' dresses were around $150 each, they're from Alfred Angelo.

My girls are all getting different dresses from Alfred Angelo, but in the same color. All of theirs were under $200.
Here's a compilation of their dress styles:

My MOH's dresses were on clearance at Dillard's for $116.00 each!!
this is me at my friend's wedding, Calvin Klein from Nordstrom, under $200 with alterations

here are my BMs in dresses and bolero from the Limited, around $150 (both pieces together)

I liked it myself and got an ivory version for the reception:

@rachiecakes: Your venue is amazing! I have never ever heard of anyone having their wedding and reception at an ice rink!
I went shopping last weekend with my girls, like originally planned, and we found the perfect dress for everyone! It's by Impressions, and it was $178. I love it and can't wait to see it in the color I ordered! I don't have any good pictures of it on the girls because it was the wrong size for everyone, but here's the picture off the website.


My BMs will be wearing this in a burgundy color. Department store for $50. Sorry so big!

My MOH will be wearing this dress from Overstock.com, also $50.

Mine are B2 by Jasmine. $160 and the shop we went to gave us a fabric change for free so I could get the darker grey I wanted.
