After searching and digging through the hundreds of options for dresses, my sister sent me a link to Revelry. It was exactly the styles I wanted. I was so excited to also see they had multiple colors and shades available for all of their dresses. I looking into the process a little more with the information on the website and knew it was exactly the experience I wanted my girls to have. I knew exactly how I wanted to do it - a Bridesmaid Brunch. I think back of all the times I've been a bridesmaid, and nice it would have been to have a more private experience where you don't feel awkward or there being another 30 girls in the dressing rooms.
I reached out to my girls and set a date that worked for them and from there it was easy!
I reached out to a stylist and heard back within a day or so - super quick for an online store! I asked about the process and she mentioned she would send me a few samples for the girls. The order process was so easy. You go online, choose the style of the dress(es) you want to try, choose the size and add to cart. It's $10 per sample, but for 6 bridesmaid I chose a variety of sizes for three samples. They let me know when my samples shipped and within 2-3 days, I had them on my doorstep.
The packing it so pretty. Once you open the pretty pink box, the dresses are tucked into tissue paper with an information folder on top, a personalized note and a tape measure with a size guide. It was what I imagined, and when I saw the dresses it was better. The dresses are gorgeous. They came with everything needed to be sure the girls had a great experience.
My sister came over the night before and we started to get things ready! I cooked some good, she put up some decorations and I got the dresses ready. The morning of, we tidied up, set the food out and the girls came over. We just sipped on mimosas, snacked, and when the girls were ready they tried on the dress. It was on their own time, no pressure and lots of laughs were had!
The girls commented that the dresses were flattering, they felt comfortable and they loved that the design I chose comes with a number of ways you can wear the dress. Not to mention, my sister was pumped about the petite length option! After we measured the girls I showed them the size guide and the know what to order. The girls will order their dress size and it will ship to their house. All dresses are made-to-order in as little as 12 weeks!
I cannot thank Revelry enough for the amazing experience I was able to provide the women closest to me and the memories made Saturday will last a lifetime. We all cannot wait for the big day, but Revelry made this part of the planning process such a breeze. Check out their website below for all additional information, and please feel free to message me or comment below with any questions you have about the process! I also cannot thank Paige, my sister and MOH for setting up, the decorations and the help throughout the afternoon. I have the best group of gals standing by my side - thank you to my bridesmaids (don't think I'm forgetting you, Chels) and Lauren for an amazing Saturday afternoon, taking care of wedding stuff while also getting in some good ol' girl talk!
Here are a few photos of the brunch set up and decor - my sister and I both forgot to take photos of the dresses, but I included a few from real weddings that are on their website!
