    This is exactly the sort of thing more Brides need to do- keep a color theme but allow different designs and patters to be used. I love that, because that way the dresses can flatter each body and personality and not look so robotic. My favorite (aside from the gorgeous white gown) is the dress on the far right end <3

    I love, love, love this. You can totally do it! I only had one requirement for my bridesmaids: Short, black cocktail dresses that didn't come from the same store. Otherwise I didn't care. That and hot pink shoes. Mine may have been sequined manolos ;-).

    There's nothing worse than bridesmaid dresses past the knees, is there?

    kelsey - yes! thank you! and the thought of each girl being able to wear the dress over and over again, makes me feel better about asking them to spend the money...and black is such a classic colour...and cocktail dresses well...there's nothing more classic than a cocktail dress...and i too love the dress on the far right!

    tasha - thanks!!!!

    lori - i love love love cocktail dresses...i actually love love love the word "cocktail"...it just makes me think of FUN FUN FUN!!

    katie - great minds think alike...hehe!!! although i am not particular about the shoes they wear...i am definitely particular about the shoes i will be wearing...loubs!!! i need the red sole baby!

    and i agree, not a fan of dresses that are past the knee!
