I'm having a dickens of a time trying to find textured (lace, eylet, etc) ivory dresses... Any suggestions on places you looked to pull your dresses together? I'd love to put the same thing together for my 'maids. Thank you SO much for sharing! Julia, I LOVE this idea!

I am overseas on a worktrip right now, so can't do a tonne of wedding related jobs, but this one was so much fun to work on one evening! Thanks for the great idea, I think my girls are going to LOVE it too!! I sooooo love this idea, and I am shamelessly admitting that I have copied it already!

I was trying to use less paper, but made a handy swatch card with fabric samples in my color range that was purse/wallet sized for an easy shopping reference. The fabric store cut me samples for free which made the whole project super thrifty.

I have to say, it wasn't completely my idea. When I first started talking about the different dresses, one of my bridesmaids asked for examples, and she called it a Lookbook then. I just made it flippy! Jenna, I'm sure I'll get some of the "is this okay?" when they start shopping. I think that's unavoidable with choose-your-own-adventure bridesmaids. Thanks, girls!

I tried a few different thing to help them feel more comfortable about the idea of them picking out their own, but they still kept asking me "is this okay? is this okay?" this would have helped them see the kind of looks I was going for!
