Okay, so, I’ve been on this wild goose chase for the perfect bridesmaid dresses for my upcoming wedding, and let me tell you, it’s been a journey. The title of my little adventure? “Bridesmaid Dresses for 2018”. Sounds simple enough, right? Wrong!

I started all excited, thinking, “How hard can it be to find a few pretty dresses?” Ha! I dove headfirst into the internet, browsing through all the usual suspects. I was thinking something trendy, but not too out there, you know? And it had to look good on everyone.
First, I hit up Pinterest, which was a rabbit hole of gorgeous gowns and endless inspiration. I scrolled and scrolled, pinning like a madwoman. I saw some really classy floor-length ones that I thought would make my girls look like goddesses. They are all different shapes and sizes and I want to make sure to have many choices for them to choose from. Then I checked out some of the big-name stores online. But, man, were some of those prices a shock! I mean, who knew polyester could cost so much?
- Tried some local shops.
- Asked friends for recommendations.
- Even considered getting them custom-made, but that was a whole other can of worms.
I narrowed it down to a few styles and colors, and then came the fun part – getting my bridesmaids’ opinions. That was like herding cats! Everyone had their own ideas about what they wanted to wear. One wanted something short, another wanted long, someone was all about lace, while another was definitely not. Trying to please everyone felt like an impossible task, but I’m nothing if not persistent!
After a lot of back and forth, a few group chats, and maybe a minor meltdown or two, we finally landed on some dresses that we all agreed on. They’re stylish, they’re flattering, and they won’t break the bank. Plus, they come in a bunch of colors, so we could mix and match to make everyone happy.
Final Picks
So, yeah, “Bridesmaid Dresses for 2018” turned out to be way more than just picking out some dresses. It was a whole ordeal! But, in the end, I think we nailed it. And honestly, seeing my girls happy and feeling beautiful is all that really matters.
