In store or online bridesmaid dresses?

Kristen, on August 27, 2019 at 18:27 Posted in Wedding fashion 0 18
Hey ladies. I'm just wondering who is/has bought bridesmaids dresses online? I'm pretty nervous doing it, but online has the exact styles I want my girls in. I can't for the life of my find anything close in store.

I'm not opposed to having a tiny bit of tailoring done. But sometimes you can't fix something bought online. Help!

Does anyone have a site that they or their girls have bought from that was successful?

    My girls got their dresses on Jj’s House! They were perfect and excellent quality Smiley smile. They only took a couple weeks to get here and after the exchange, shipping and duty they were still all
    under $200 (they were short ones so long ones would be a little more). Overall great experience!

    And all your girls are happy with them??

    Azazie.ca was where we got our dresses!! They allow you to enter your measurements for a custom-fitting dress (no extra charge!) so minimal tailoring is needed - some girls just need a bit of a hem.

    The quality is great, and if they need hemming/tailoring, azazie will reimburse for custom-sized dresses.

    Definitely get the swatches! It also makes it easier to go shopping for groomsmen outfits. Dessy had 5 free swatches, you just need to pay shipping. I think it ended up being 16.95, but they arrived in 2 days!

    That's the same issue I have! Not all in different countries. But were all separated except for one. Swatches are an awesome idea. My fiance and I were just discussing what if it comes and it's not the right color. So I like that idea!

    We just placed our orders from Dessy this week! My girls are scattered all over the country so I didn't really see an option other than online. We wanted to go with Davids Bridal but their return policy is essentially non-existent. I wasn't comfortable doing that since the dress I wanted was online exclusive. Dessy has a great return policy and a warehouse in Ontario so there we won't be charged duties. I ordered swatches to make sure we got the right colour, but other than that I'm just trusting that the dress works out! The girls are all open to alterations if need be.

    Yeah that's super important the one we ordered from amazon was a third party seller so we would have had to pay return postage which international shipping is disgustingly expensive (I work in canada post outlet trust me). So I think we will have to consign it. Oh well.

    I bought a dress on amazon that was fairly highly rated and was about 150 after shipping. Other than some gems falling off and the lace being really itchy it looked exactly like the picture. Although it was a little too good and we ended up not using it because I didn't want to be upstaged. Just make sure you check return policy and customer feedback before ordering anything and you should be fine. Also plan ahead and order way to early so you have time to fix anything if need be.
