Bridesmaid dresses/styles - inc. pics - your thoughts?

[laughwithme]

Hi everyone, I would like some thoughts on the pics below. My main wedding color is cobalt/royal blue. I am having 4 adult bridesmaids (ages 23-24,) 2 junior BMs (one will be 13 and another will be 11) and one flower girl. My adult bridesmaids all adore the dress on the left (I first saw it in a magazine and they all LOVE it.) However, I don''t think its totally appropriate for the juniors, and I like the dress in the middle for them. And then for my one flower girl, I think the dress on the far right would be adorable - the top half would be white, the lower half would be the same cobalt color as the other dresses.

I know its hard to imagine, but try to picture the cobalt blue (far right) on all dresses (company does them from same dye lot, by the way.)

Is it okay if the white on the FG dress is slightly different than my diamond white dress? Is it okay that my dress has a straight-across (not sweetheart) neckline, but the adult BM dresses have sweetheart? Do you think this combo of three styles, all in cobalt, looks good? The middle dress will need to be altered a ton for the juniors - an alternationist can easily adjust length, etc. for them, correct? (the dress sizes are adult women sizes so though we would start with a size zero and go from there.)

Just looking for general thoughts here, thanks!!!

I think its totally fine. But i'm not into matchy matchy...

My BMs get to pick their own shade of yellow and style of dress.

As long as the colours are not too different from each other, it will work beautifully in the end.

ETA: I just re-read that you're having all the same colours!! No problem at all then! Hehe

I don''t think it''s a problem at all. I think color is the most important as that''s probably all that people will notice. And no one is going to notice if the flower girl top isn''t EXACTLY the same white as your dress. I think it will look lovely, and I LOVE your bridesmaid dresses. I so want to buy that dress for my rehearsal dinner.

I think that the junior bm and bm dresses look great together, the only thing that would bother me a little is the length of the flower girl''s dress. If the rest of the ladies are wearing knee length I think FG should too.

I think this is more than fine! Those dresses all look great together and will kick butt in cobalt!

Are these Aria bridesmaid dresses? I think the styles will look fine in the same color.

I think they''re all lovely and will go really well together! And I agree...no one will notice the difference in your FG and your whites! And if they do, I''m sure they won''t care!
