AIBU to expect to find bridesmaid dresses...

AIBU to find 'matching' (same material / colour maybe different lengths / necklines) of bridesmaid dresses to fit 5yo/7yo/11yo16/yo/30yo?!

I'm getting married this Autumn and am struggling to find dresses to match for all my bridesmaids. I didn't want my three nieces in the 'traditional poofy childish dresses'.

Any ideas where I can find something with a full range of sizes? I'm not expecting the younger girls in absolutely identical adult shaped dresses but the same colour / material and maybe just slightly shorter with different straps or neckline. Please help! Thanks!

I got dresses for my three bridesmaids (seven, four and four months) in Monsoon. Cornflower blue with flower embroidery on the bodices. Very summery but not at all poofy. Maid of honour wore the same colour but different design

Good idea, sis the adult ones come from monsoon too? I'm relatively tight on time so would love only one shop to buy all from and to ensure they're a good match

Chichi London do a lot of their dresses in matching adult and child sizes, not too expensive either and they often do 20-30% discounts for shopping on their app, black friday (if you can wait until November), etc.
Their search function isnt great though because they give the dresses different names depending on the range so you have to go through them all.

Not sure if this is helpful as it's boys I've got but we renewed our vows on a beach and I bought nice matching shorts for my kids and husband from River Island.

I got my flower girl dresses from JJshouse online, they do adult, junior and flowergirl bridesmaid dresses in different styles in the same colours and fabrics, so you can basically mix and match between the childrens and adult dresses. You can order fabric swatches too to make sure you have the right colour before you order. I was pretty happy with the ones I got, they fit nicely and looked lovely on. Only thing is it can be two or three weeks for delivery.
