Congratulations! You’ve found that perfect somebody who’ll nurse you back to Soberville when you’ve had one too many Midori sours at the bar, and who’ll love you despite your poor music choices in the car. (Admit it! You’ve been bopping your head to the Biebs’ new song on repeat.) You’re that cloyingly sweet, so-in-love couple that you used to hate when you were single, and now that you’re getting hitched, you’ve recruited your herd of besties as your bridesmaids.
Assuming you’re not having a theme wedding where requisite attire mandates the bridal party’s wardrobe take a cue from Marilyn Manson, we’ve got twenty-seven bridesmaid dress suggestions for you that a) won’t have your bridesmaids screaming “the horror, the horror ,” and b) won’t have them filing for bankruptcy. (Waiting for the bachelorette party and the colorful “performers” for that one…kidding!)

If you go to your Target stores and get lucky, that first dress you listed, the Isaac Mizrahi, can be found on the clearance racks for $12.99! I actually have the one in blue, but I’m going to wear it more as a cocktail dress.

Hi,
I would love to know if the Purple – “3. One-shoulder Beaded Dress, on sale for $44.99 at Newport-news.com” is still available.
I can’t seem to find it at newport news website. I would appreciate if you could let me know who’s the designer, maybe I could make a special order with them.
Thanks.

These dresses are really cute. Especially number 7, 18, and 21. If I were to be a bridesmaid those are the dresses I would want to be wearing. You could also find some similar styles at around the same price at http://www.audreyshops.com/. Give them a try and you won’t be disappointed!

My bridesmaids actually wore dress #1 (in different colors) for my wedding 2 years ago. They loved it, and it was such a good price!

OMG! These dresses are amazing and sooooo affordable! I’m currently planning my own wedding which will be in the South of France next year and I’ve been trying to keep costs down. This is an amazing find to help me in my search for my bridesmaid dresses. I love the pink ones!

I just found your site and I love it. I came across what I guess is an old photo from the budget fashionista on another site. It’s numbered 1, 2 and 3… the first dress is that purple floral print you have now numbered 15. The THIRD dress on the photo I found is a lilac/purple,on shoulder chiffon looking empire waist gown with beading under the bust and on the shoulder strap. Dying to find out whose dress it is, any insight? Thanks.

hey Jamie- welcome! the dress was from Newport-News and it appears that it has been discontinued. That being said Newport-News does have the tendency to bring styles back, so keep checking their site – http://www.newport-news.com

Thanks Kathryn!
Just to ease my neuroticism, that’s the purple grecian-looking one shoulder dress that was dc’d by Newport News, right? And not the purple flower print criss cross from Newport that you currently have posted as #15 for $39.99?
