So all of my bridesmaids disagree, and I can't decide for myself because I'm so equally torn.



And the groom will be wearing: Monaco Suit - Island Importer

The groomsman will be in Khakis and Linen Shirts. No ties, cummerbunds, etc. The groom and groomsman will be in flip flops. It will be beach side. Not on the beach, but beach side.

I know my dress is a little dressy, but I love it too much, I don't care.

I can't decide whether to go with this more casual dress for the bridesmaids, in cornflower blue (light blue), it's cotton, has pockets, and will be complimentary to the groomsman's outfits.


Or, the slightly more dressy version, with sequins to match mine.



What do you think?

Try linking again, when I clicked on your wedding dress I got a video montage of dresses, don't know which one is yours?

I want to see the dress!

OK, never mind. I realize the links don't work. I uploaded them into the document if anyone wants to take the time to look at them. The first dress in the document is the casual one. Thanks!

I'm editing to provide links that work

Wow. It is pretty, but isn't it kind of tight?

And you're wanting the bridesmaids to wear what? I'm not sure what might go with a wedding dress like that.

Yes, that is the problem I'm running into, not being able to find bridesmaids dresses. I've got one that likes the cotton dress, one the likes the sequin dress, and one that like them both.

As for my dress, it is tight, but it's supposed to be. I took one bridesmaid with me, and tried on about 100 dresses. She said this was the best dress for me. I took another bridesmaid, without telling the second what the first had said. I pretended to try on random dresses, and she immediately was like, "That's the dress!" as soon as put this one on.

Come to think of it, I've never seen a "Loose" wedding dress.

It's perfect and gorgeous!

I'm still confused on the bridesmaid dresses though. The two blue dresses on either side of your wedding dress?

Yes,
I know the two blue dresses are casual in relation to the bride's dress, but those are the two I'm thinking about. The one on the left is cotton, and very casual. It would go well with the linen the groomsmen will be in. The second is a little dressier.

Do you like either? Or are they both too casual? I'm trying to "casualize" the whole wedding a little.

It'll be beach-side.

Whoo hoo! A beachside wedding. Are we invited huh?

I don't think either one of the two bridesmaid dresses are beach-y.

I don't care for either of the blue dresses either. I think you should look for a more casual beachy look, with a neckline more like yours, possibly a floral that picks up the colors the guys are wearing.
