I've looked at a few dresses online, in magazines, and at David's Bridal. I found a couple of dresses I like, and I definitely have a style in mind now. Since styles and specific dresses come and go though, I don't know if the dress I like now will still be available when I have the money to purchase a dress. Still, this is what I'm thinking.
For me: My first choice is David's Bridal T9309 with an Apple sash (as shown). I really wasn't sure what I thought about the sash originally, but I really, really liked it when I tried it on.
My second choice is David's Bridal T9325 (which is actually more expensive than my first choice). I like the beading, and I really love the corset back. If I did this dress though, I would prefer a thicker ribbon for the corset so I could have a thicker bow like on the back of the T9309.
For my ladies: Impression Bridesmaids 1754 in color shown (the one on the right)
I have a few other thoughts or possibilities for my bridesmaids if this dress doesn't work out, but this dress just seems perfect. Plus, it's quite cheap when it comes to bridesmaid dresses, which is a definite plus!
For the Flower Girls/Ring Bearer: I haven't 100% decided what I want the girls in (or how I want the Ring Bearer's attire to differ), but this dress by David's Bridal is adorable! It doesn't look like much in the photo, but it person, it is so cute! I would want it in Apple, like the sash on the dress I like. Style number: nm1211
Another dress I absolutely love for them is David's Bridal H1227. I mainly just love the huge bow on the back. As for the two colors, I'm not quite sure if I would want apple on white or the reverse, but I'm sure it would be some combination of those two colors.
The Boys: Andrew is pretty much in charge of deciding what the boys will wear. So far all I've gotten out of him is he wants to wear something light, like a linen suit, in a somewhat light color. No tie. And he's not even sure he will wear a shirt with buttons (i.e. it will probably be a t-shirt underneath). I am 100% cool with whatever he picks as long as it still looks semi-formal-ish. I want a somewhat casual wedding, but I still want the wedding party to look like they are in a wedding party. :-P
