Here’s a look at how I searched for the perfect mint bridesmaids dresses for our wedding. Be sure to check out all of our wedding content here!
Hello all! I am so excited to say that I SAID YES TO THE DRESS last weekend! My mom, future mother in law, and one of my bridesmaids went shopping with me! I had such a blast trying on dresses and ended up picking one out that was totally different from what I thought I wanted – yet totally perfect.
Of course, I can’t share my dress with you until after the big day, but I can share some other dresses! I was putting off looking at bridesmaids dresses until after I picked my dress, but now I am ready to look at them!
I really have no clue what I want in a bridesmaids dress, but I know I want them to be the color mint! My sister’s request is no strapless. I can’t say that I blame her – I don’t know why so much wedding stuff is strapless!
I have six bridesmaids, ranging from 5’2″ to almost 6′ tall! So I have to find a dress that will look nice on everyone – or maybe I will let people pick their own dresses.
What do y’all think of that trend? Could I say “pick any mint dress” or pick a brand and say “pick any style you like”? I want everyone to be comfortable and, like I said, there’s a big difference in height especial with some of my girls, so I don’t want anyone to feel like the dress is wearing them, you know?!
So, I’m on the hunt for the perfect dress! Here are some of my favorites so far:
Long:
Joanna August // Two Birds // Bariano // Donna Morgan
Short:
Moon Collection // Maison Scotch // Boden // LuLu’s
Lace:
Adrianna Papell // Nanette Lepore // Mod Cloth // LuLu’s

But, after looking at all of these, I’m really smitten with the idea of renting dresses. I think that it would be way less expensive and no one would be stuck with a dress that may or may not be their taste afterwards.
I love the colors that Little Borrowed Dress has in stock – I just ordered some samples this week! Right now I am leaning towards the Madison or the Ann – what do you think?
