The designers have created fabulous wedding gowns and you have found your dream dress. The fit is perfect and you are gorgeous! Now you must move on to the difficult task of outfitting your wedding party. As a guest you have probably seen many beautiful women - looking less than gorgeous - only because their particular body types did not fit the chosen bridesmaid dress style. Choosing dresses that please and flatter all your bridesmaids may seem nearly impossible. Fortunately, though, designers and websites are helping take the guesswork out of the bridesmaid dress hunt. As you start your search for the perfect bridal party ensemble consider designing individual gowns in the same fabric and color. Short is in and by choosing the short style and varying between strapless, one shoulder gowns, halter style, or sweetheart necklines you will be able to flatter your friends, keep them comfortable, and create a unique look for your wedding day. If you are not in favor of short dresses remember that many of the tea length or floor length gowns also come in gorgeous styles and offer the same fabric choices.

St. Paul is home to many bridal boutiques. David's Bridal is just one of the retail bridal stores that offers brides the opportunity to choose a color palette and many styles of dresses to fit your bridesmaids, junior bridesmaids, and flower girls. Once you have made your color choices and passed the color and code to your friends living outside of the metro area they will be able to shop in your selected fabrics and colors without traveling far from their homes. With all the wedding day expenses your friends will thank you for that - and arrive looking fabulous to your wedding.
