Gardening Methods

What do you think of this bridesmaids dress and where can I find it?

The colours for my wedding are soft pink and green like http://www.richeflowers.com/images/tulip%20bridal%20bouquet.jpg or http://www.flowers.org.uk/images/flowers/ranunculus_big.jpg even a little paler than those. If my wedding had a theme I suppose it would be garden party, it would be held outside in a garden in summer (hopefully warm summer night).
I had originally chosen another dress for my maids, but I think this one is quite elegant even though the colours are stronger than I had wanted.
This is the dress http://www.sherrihill.com/dresses/Sherri_Hill_s02071.htm and the one on the right http://www.sherrihill.com/dresses/Sherri_hill_6.htm
do you think they will they look ok even though they are bright?
Also do you know where I might be able to buy them at a discount? I live in australia so it would have to be off a website (there are no stockists here) I can only find them for $560 which is too much.
I have looked on ebay and they are not there so please don’t suggest it.

I think the dresses would work extremely well with what you’ve said. As far as where to get for less, my only suggestion would be to make them yourself, or have someone else make them.

You might be able to find similar fabrics, or a good seamstress might know how. I would think that they could even do it for 1/2 the price.

We did my daughter’s bridesmaids dresses ourselves, and it was so much cheaper that way. We even called the fabric maker direct to order the material – also much cheaper that way. We did that because she found exactly the material she wanted, but it had been discontinued and there wasn’t enough left. So, I got the manufacturers name off the bolt, and called direct. They were great, sold it for less than the retailer, and delivery was wonderful.

There are options. Don’t be afraid to explore them. And, I’m proud of you for wanting to be frugal!! That is a lost art in wedding planning these days.
