BM dress - FITTED!

This was great to see done as I was really worried about them at the length they came in. I swear no one looks good with a mid calf length dress so I dont know why they came that length - prolly just in case I had a really tall BM.

So this one is done - hemmed and the straps removed! It still needs to be steamed right before the big day so the skirt will lay better (not be so poufy) but I love them so much more now that they are short!

First fitting with the BMs! ....and their shoes

We had our first fitting with all 7 ladies in the bridal party and it actually went more smoothly than I thought! I love the brown color of the dresses and once they are hemed and brought up to the knees I think they will be really cute.

We also tracked down shoes for all the girls to wear. They are all wearning the same style of shoes but all the bridesmaids will have them in gold and Joe's sister who is actually a groomswoman and standing on his side will have the same shoes but in brown.

Here are pics!

We wanted a dress that would complement both the my dress and the BM dresses so here is what we came up with.

Bridesmaid Dresses

I went shopping with 5 out of the 7 ladies in the bridal party and this is what we came up with!
It will be in an espresso brown color with a toffee ribbon - exactly the opposite of what is pictured here.
It will also be strapless. It is a Mia Solano dress style MB8844.

This is my BM Nikki in the dress - but she was making a strange face in the pic so I cropped her head out of a different picture and pasted it on this one :)

Guy's Tuxes

We really like the idea of doing a brown tux in the fall. We like the one by Calvin Klein pictured here.
