It’s an unforgettable time to be getting married, let alone be planning a wedding.
Though COVID-19 has put many roadblocks in the way of organizing and actually carrying out a celebration, the pandemic has forced couples to resort to increasingly intimate gatherings.
For brides, COVID has presented more than a few challenges when it comes to getting their wedding parties together - especially fitting them for bridesmaid gowns.
Many bridal boutiques have closed their doors for the time being and some have even blocked off their change rooms to avoid the transmission of the coronavirus.
To top it all off, family, health and living situations have kept some people inside their homes, unable to join the fun of shopping to keep themselves as safe as possible.
Thankfully, online shopping remains an option.
Though ordering bridesmaids dresses online usually isn’t preferred due to concerns over size and quality, there are bridal retailers who rank high in both categories, as well as shipping and customer service.
With suggestions from popular resources like Brides and the always affordable Budget Savvy Bride, here’s 8 of the best places to shop for bridesmaid dresses online.
Cheers to streamlining your wedding party planning for everyone involved, no matter how far away they are.
