I got my bridesmaid dresses in Coast ages ago. I think they were about 150 euro each... a lovely aquamarine blue with an ivory flower corsage. Ideal for a wedding abroad, lovely and floaty and my sisters will were them again. My sister picked up their shoes on e-bay for something like 20 euro each. H2B picked up suits and shirts in Suits You in Liffey Valley, ties were bought in Tie Rack (same colour as bm dresses). Flower girl dress was picked up in Dunnes Stores for something like a tenner in their sale.... and she will look seriously adorable. Good luck ladies with your shopping for dresses etc.... most importantly make sure you enjoy it.

Oh Trees, did the baby blue not work out for ya? :( Will try and upload a picture but i think the file is too big. Here's the link to the page tho http://www.littlewoodsireland.ie/rf/lwi ... =8304863en its the purple one there, but the pink one next to it looks lovely also, if you prefer it. My one's got a slight burgandy shine to it that doesn't show in the picture but you get the idea. :happywave

Mummybear – thanks for the link but its just not working for me at the mo – think they are having problems with the littlewoods site..
Will try again but re my dresses cause I am going for such an unusual colour the ppl in the shops are not sure a baby blue will work very well with the colour of my dress so yet again I am in a pickle.. :oops:

Hi trees- Maybe got to www.littlewoods.ie and visit the bridesmaids bit in the wedding section. I got the purple one on the first page for my bm's, but there are other nice dresses on there, worth a look. :happywave

Yep, that colour! It's two tone with a burgandy shine to it, which doesn't show in the photo and surprised me a bit when they arrived :shock: but they're gorgeous! My moh is 26 and my bm is 14 so i was worried that i wouldn't be able to find a dress that would suit them both but that one is perfect. :smitten They come with detatcheable spaghetti straps aswell which is nice for a bit of security when you're dancing i guess! :oops: :lol:

Hi Girls

I got my dress in Athboy in McEilhinny's. Staff were really helpful. And i got it half-price (hit it at sale time!) it's a new season dress for 525 euro.

Got the bridesmaids dresses ordered too. They are coming from China and really suit the girl's body shape! It'll work out 100 euro per dress and that's made to fit each one! The website is Lightinthebox.com

My aunt bought me the tiara and veil so I've no worries about dresses anymore! And still 11 months to go, with slight alterations needed to my own dress (but it's at home in the wardrobe and looking lovely!)

Athboy has a good reputation and a wide selection. I know other people who got their dresses there.

A friend of mine got her dress in Newry too and once her bridesmaids picked their dresses she found the same ones on houseofbrides,com

hope it helps!
