After Mama Seashell e-mailed me the photos from her dress shopping trip with my sister, she called me to say that there was a clear winner:
Dress 2!
She said it was the most flattering, and Sister Seashell liked it best. I’ll admit I preferred dress #1 from when I had seen it in the shop, but since I was letting the girls pick their dresses I realized this was part of the deal. Additionally, I figured we could add a fun sash to this dress to spice it up a bit.
I searched Etsy for inspiration.

None of these were quite “it”, but definitely a step in the right direction and a great source of inspiration!
Next, we were on to shoes. After a quick stop to Krystal Shoes in Cranston, RI (and by “quick” I mean literally in and out in 10 minutes) we found these cuties:

Did you make any alterations to your bridesmaids’ dresses? What was the easiest accessory to find?
Your sister will look stunning in that dress! Especially with that beautiful hue of purple.
Flower number 4 is to die for!
I’m sure you’ll find a great little accessory! I love that 5eizen sashy-poo!
I agree with Scissors, I heart that 5eizen! I really liked that dress on her, she’s going to look great, especially with the cute shoes! A+ for her ensemble madame!
love that dress–it’s really pretty. and a flowered sash would add the perfect touch of pizazz!
Does anyone know how to make flowers like in the top post? I’d love to use them in a few projects 
Ooh I love those ribbon sashes. Your sister’s pick is so gorgeous and one of those sashes would go perfectly with it. I’m on my way to etsy right now!
p.s. I can NEVER go in a shoe store and come out in 10 minutes. How did you do that?? 
Any idea where the white flower (4th picture) is from which etsy seller? Thanks!
I’m all about the sash idea, can’t wait to see what you decide on!
Do you know the etsy sellers for those sashes? I’ve been looking for something along those lines. Thanks!
The dress is super cute and the sash will definitely be a lovely addition to it!
Sister Seashell is going to look pretty sassy! Can’t wait to see what sash you come up with.
