J. Crew (Grand Rapids, MI)

J. Crew is definitely one of my favorite stores and I love their bridesmaid dresses. The colors all complement each other so you can let your bridesmaids choose from a couple colors (I gave mine the choice of espresso or red, they chose espresso) and I just let mine choose whatever styles they want - no need to have cookie-cutter brides! It really worked great because they have such different styles and body shapes that I didn't want one of them to feel forced to wear something she doesn't like. Also, they're really helpful about re-sending sizes or sample swatches (for the florist) or anything else you need.

Using J. Crew for my bridesmaid dresses. Lots of bright colors to choose from and the girls are more likely to wear these after the wedding. I picked a light silk chiffon dress that I would wear again!
