Get Your Bridesmaid's Input
Since they will be the ones wearing the dress, try getting their input. Of course, you could save yourself some time by asking the right questions. Instead of asking what types of dresses they would like to wear (and getting a flood of answers) try asking them about the dresses they don't want to wear. You may have one friend who is well-endowed and doesn't want to wear strapless gowns or another friend who looks washed out in lavender. By discovering what they DON'T want to wear, you could save yourself some time and make picking the dress a lot easier.Keep Choices Limited
A new trend for brides is to tell their girls to pick their own dresses - but just remember that you leave a lot to the imagination with that. Try limiting their choices to you can still keep some similarity in the dresses. Here are a few choices you can make for your bridesmaids, while still letting them pick their own gown:- Stick with the same designer, shop, or brand
- Use the same color or color scheme
- Specify the dress length
- Verify if you want a special material (ex: all chiffon, lace accents, shiny satin, etc.)
Test The Dress
Finally, don't forget that weddings are celebratory affairs and there will most likely be a party happening at your Lake of the Ozarks wedding. Keep this in mind when choosing the dresses for your bridal party. When you and your bridesmaids choose the dresses, take them for a little test drive by trying them on and jumping up and down, doing a little dance move, and putting your arms in the air like you just don't care. This will help you to know how the dress will react through the active parts of the wedding.Don't forget to think about how the dress will react to the elements. If you're getting married in our gazebo at the Lake of the Ozarks on a beautiful spring day, and you want your girls to wear short chiffon gowns - what will you do if it's a windy day? You can either figure out how to add weights to the hem or pick dresses that have a little more weight to them before hand.
