The Most Important Part of Wedding Planning
CONGRATULATIONS! My baby is getting MARRIED!
My co-host Lara is engaged. Woo Hoo - true love, big life journey, diamonds, setting dates, parties, presents, bands, food, CAKE......blah blah blah..
BUT -- the most important part of this is:
WHAT will the Bridesmaids wear???
I CAN'T WAIT until she picks.
It's tough. There are chesty bridesmaids. Flat bridesmaids. Skinny. Fat. Big arms. Lots of things to hide for the bridesmaids that are past 22 years old.
I think Lara needs some help. Shall we suggest something?
You can make them into "Scarlett" or "Falcons Crest" or "Princess" or anything your little evil heart desires. Because you know what? There is NO such thing as a pretty bridesmaids dress. And if there is...even close...then look at the SHOES (just ask my poor bridesmaids who had to wear the last minute panic buy of satin dyed kelly green.....)
Scarlett called- She WANTS HER DRESS BACK!
All girls are PRINCESSES! especially when they are in MY wedding!!
Word Up to the 80s! A "Golden Era" in the Bridesmaids Dress World!!!!!
buwwwahhaaahaaahaa....
Can't Wait Girlfriend!!!
(Dude- you should SO enter The Today Show wedding thing! RIGHT???????????)
Cheers! Heidi

Heidi: Payback will be a bitch. :-)
Good Hell! The princess thing is just plain wrong. I think I had a Barbie doll with that same dress!
Yeah it's funny now. But just wait until someone who supposedly loves you actually makes you wear one of those things. I think the last one is mine!
OMG! Congratulations, Lara! And Boston guy -- what a lucky man.
WOOT!
CONGRATS LARA!!! Lots of warm wishes from Atlanta! A word of advice from a (practically) professional bridesmaid... comfortable shoes! :)
Congratulations, Lara! (I thought you snuck a little reference to your brand new fiancee into one of your recent comments on my blog!) All I can say is -- woo hoo! And what a great fertile new fun topic for the show and your blog this will be! The very best wishes from all of us here in the 'burbs! Laurie
Here is my advice to you planning your bridesmaid. Get them something simple. It is your day and you don't want anyone to outdress you. Congrats by the way.
Om my! Congratulations! You could always have a naked wedding. I'm just sayin'... ;)
I like the way that Kathy thinks!!!!
LOL! Now that all depends on where you live and what time of year you'll be having it! Wanna hear something funny, I found my bridemaids dresses at Ross 4 years ago. I don't know if you have that store, but the were almost the exact replica at David's Bridal, of a simple spaghetti strap, extra material at the bust, elegant mid calf to ankle dresses depending on height, at the bridal store they were almost $200, at Ross I paid anywhere from $6.00 to $20.00. And I think they looked great, and they could wear the dresses again because they weren't all frilly or "bridesmaid" looking. Just a thought to check around at other stores too. Good luck! Keep us posted on the outcome!
