Pinterest boards, TikToks, screenshots, saved dresses, and wedding color inspiration are all helpful during your appointment. What if some bridesmaids live out of state? Out-of-state bridesmaids can still participate. Kennedy Blue offers at-home try-on options, or bridesmaids can send measurements and our team can help recommend sizing.

Bridesmaids typically order dresses 6–8 months before the wedding to allow enough time for production, shipping, and alterations. Do you carry mother of the bride dresses too? Yes.
