BM dress for my friend's wedding - The PASH Wedding Forums and Message Boards

I wanted to show the dress I'm wearing for my best friend's wedding. We just went yeseterday to try them on for the first time. The internet doesn't do anything for the color, but it's "Peridot" and is a little bit greener than what is coming out online. I've never been a bridesmaid before and it is going to be a bit longer before I'm even a bride!!! I don't know what it's going to be like to try on wedding gowns (no, I haven't even tried them on, yet!), I felt like such a princess trying on the BM dress!!!

Very pretty!

Where did you guys get those?

Thanks! We're getting them at David's Bridal. Her mother is a seamstress so she will be doing all of the alterations and MAKING the wedding gown!

One of the BM's has a small scar on her chest dead center above where the dress stops. When she's not moving, it's covered, but when the material moves it shows. She's a bit self conscious of it, so my friend's mom is going to take the scarf that comes with the dress and add just a bit of material around the top of all the dresses. We tested it out in the dressing room. It actually makes the beading on the front stand out better and it will kind of look like this (but the strip of material will be just a smidge higher):

Very pretty. I wore one very similar last weekend except it was burgundy.

Very pretty! I'm sure with your colouring it will look great! And that is very thoughtful to add the fabric for the friend!

That dress is very pretty. Which one is it though, the first or the second one?

It's the first. I only posted the second to show what the TOP of the first one will look like when the additional material is added. So, it'll be the first one with a ribbon of material added above the bust which looks similar to the bust of the second one. Hopefully THIS wasn't confusing, LoL.

The colors of dresses look amazing.
