Operation Bridesmaids Dresses |

Initially I was going to let my girls (all 10 of them) choose the dress style they like from the Jasmine B2 Collection. The only stipulation was that it had to be ordered in tea length. I didn’t even care if they were all in different fabrics (chiffon, satin, etc.). I chose the color Bahama Breeze Blue and it was up to them to find the dress style they liked.
As it turned out, the majority of them really liked the same dress style! So instead, they are all getting the same dress and half are getting the dress in Bahama Breeze Blue and the other half are getting the dress in Espresso. It couldn’t have worked out any better! I even asked them what dress color they would want to wear and the responses came back so that it split evenly – 5 in espresso and 5 in Bahama breeze blue. AWESOME!
With a significant discount, they are each paying just $129 for the dress and (in my opinion) the dress can be worn at other occasions. To keep with the orange accents as part of the color scheme, the girls will have some arrangement of vibrant orange flowers (maybe lilies or dahlias… or both!)
This is a pretty silly and random little video…. but, that’s probably why I felt the need to pass it along!

It’s amazing (and great for you) how it all worked out…and I love the Bridesmaid video as well.
Congratulations and what a beautiful color scheme.
I also wanted to share with you a post I wrote this week for Survive Wedding Season that I thought you might enjoy:

I live in Boston and I went through Chryssie’s Bridal in Canton, MA for my dress and my bridesmaids dresses. That price is also because of a 20% discount off of each one since there are 10 girls in the wedding party…
Thanks for the referral to Bridesmaid Dress 101 post… it was great!

I really love the colors. My hubby is a big Denver Bronco Fan and I was joking last night and said lets do blue and orange. But now seeing it together I really don’t think it’s bad. I actually really like it!

Can anyone tell me if the color Bahama Breeze is more blue or more green? Is it more turquoise or tiffany?
