DB bridesmaid fabric mesh vs. chiffon vs. mesh/lace

Can you show some examples of the dresses you are looking at?

Honestly, when we went to try on BM dresses at David's Bridal, I couldn't tell much of a difference between the mesh and chiffon. My wedding will be at a church with the reception at a clubhouse, and my BMs will be in mesh or chiffon.

ETA: I think the mesh would be fine for your wedding. I love a lot of the mesh/lace dresses, but I'm not sure if any of my BMs are going with those.

I would get color swatches, I found that mesh and chiffon look different in the same color. I asked my BM to stick to the same fabric for that reason

I personally find the mesh to be more casual. My girls are doing DB for bridesmaid dresses, the color we chose had ljmited fabric availability- so we went with chiffon. We are doing short dresses- which I think adds to my perspective when compared to longer mesh dresses. Also, one of my friends wore a long mesh dress for another wedding. It photographed well, but was harder to alter.

Thanks for the replies! I’m not really attached to any specific DB dress. I was hoping to choose a fabric, color, and length for them to choose within those options.
