If you are going to buy a cocktail dress, make sure you buy something that is chic, classically cut, and timeless so you can wear it year after year.  Go for a solitary color like red, steel grey or black and then you can accessorize the heck out of it to go with the trends (yes, that means a new excuse every season to buy new shoes).\n\nGood luck and happy shopping.

My wedding is in July too! Congratulation first of all! I'm sure you're so excited! I will tell you what I did i hae bridesmaids i know you don't but maybe you can incorporate some of these ideas and colors in your wedding. The bridesmaids are wearing like a bright green almost lime color dress. My maids of honor are wearing a bright pink not hot pink kind of magenta. So I am going to have the flowers the same colors as their dresses. I have lots of colors in my wedding. I think it's okay to go with lots of color! I have white,pinks,greens,yellows and some purple. It's all about what you like. You said you want red roses in your bouquet so go with that. Keep in mind that too much red and green will start to look like a Christmas wedding and it'll be July. Just go with your gut!

Something age and occasion-appropriate that is not white, ivory, or black.  My mother wore a long dress that had a matching beaded jacket over it.  Hers was the same color as the bridesmaid dresses, but it doesn't have to be.

You don't have to get anything too fancy with too much decoration. I know that a lot of people were able to find some really nice dresses at Dillards. My mom, (when she was MOB for my sister) got her dress from Cold Water Creek.

I've found some nice dresses in "Group USA" in Secaucus, but you can see if they have one closer. They have a nice selection and good prices.

There are various ways to do this.  Many malls and/or shopping centers have formal gown shops.  Most major chain stores have catalogues to order from.  There are many small "mom & pop" stores that sell wedding gowns and formal bowns.  You could look in the yellow pages, you could also ask friends or family members who have gotten married where they and their attendants went.

David's Bridal has a great selection and always has a selection of $99 dresses. I was surprised how nice they were. You can try resale shops but they usually know what they have and they aren't usually a good buy unless they are outdated. Any wedding dress shop has different price ranges. Don't be afraid to go and look.

Everyone in a wedding is responsible for their own attire.  It would be nice if you didn't expect the groomsmen to spend $200+.  Since the kilts are $50 more than the tux maybe you could pay the difference if you really want the groomsmen to wear them.  Has anyone talked to the guys, are they willing to wear kilts?  $100 for a bridesmaid dress is really reasonable.  I got married 12+ years ago and the dresses cost $135.  If you do contribute to the cost of the wedding party clothes, I would make the thank you gifts inexpensive.  Good Luck.

Black tuxedos are ALWAYS appropriate in a wedding.\nYou can tie them to the bridesmaides dresses by using navy accessories.

Call a bridal shop.  They should have them or be able to special order them for you and your friend.\n\nIt has been a long time since I've bought any, so I wouldn't begin to guess at price.  The ones that fit the best used to button (pull on gloves lose their stretch fast), and if that is the style you buy you need to carry a hair pin.  Put the pin around the base of the button where the shank is sewn to the glove, thread the hair pin through the button hole, and pull through.  Saves time and fingernails :)\n\nYou might also call your local thrift stores (this is the kind of thing that gets dumped out when someone moves to a nursing facility) and costume shops.\n\nOh, forgot.  They aren't itchy.  Some are really satin, and others are tight knit to resemble satin, no roughness.
