Tips for choosing the perfect bridesmaid dresses


Don't want to ruin your wedding by creating stress while 

bridesmaids dress shopping? Check out these dos and don'ts.


*Tip: Remember that simple, elegant dresses make everybody happy. Don't go over the top with lots of details, embellishments and accessories.


1. Don't dress your bridesmaids in something hideous so you'll look better in comparison, and try not to choose bridesmaid dresses that make your maids look heavy or sexless.

2. Search for a style that flatters the different sizes and shapes of your bridesmaids. A-line skirts and empire waists tend to look good on all body types

3. Take your time and decide how you want the bridesmaid dresses to complement your wedding gown. Find a style that evokes the same feel as your dress but doesn't look too similar -- you don't want your bridesmaids looking like the bride.

4. Consider choosing a color or a fabric and then letting each maid pick a style that will suit her

5. Look for colors you like and think would look good on all of your bridesmaids (consider their complexions and hair colors). Brighter colors are generally more flattering, while pastel hues might look great on girls with fair complexions, but can be too distracting on friends with a darker complexion

A perfect wedding.....

I decided to blog on this topic because not everyone can afford a wedding planner - which is OK. You still deserve to have a lovely wedding and with some useful tips you will! You may have read advice on various blogs before but you have not heard it from me... lol.
Every blog starts the planning talk with the wedding budget but I decided to start with some tips dealing with a planner:
  1. Have a basic idea of the type of wedding that you want
  2. Don't be afraid to say "no"
  3. Ask as many questions
  4. Be respectful and polite
  5. Be honest
