Winter Brides!- Fur Shawl?

Does anyone have a website where they got theirs that was reasonable (no more than 25 a piece-- I have 8 girls).

    @Future-hi, I had a snarky comment because I’ve been this bridesmaid. No amount of fucking faux fur is going to make a difference when your BMs are freezing their arses off so you can use them as props in your pictures. If you would like your BMs to speak to you after your wedding I suggest you actually take some advice or not, who needs friends when you have photo opportunities?

    I got my bridal party matching wool blanket scarves, though it's more likely to be in the upper 40s/low 50s on my wedding day, rather than subzero temps.

    Maybe matching Sorels would be more your speed.

    @OGjessie- clearly you haven't read my comment in going to say it again for the 3rd time-- I AM NOT TAKING PHOTOS OF ANY OF MY BRIDESMAIDS OUTSIDE NOR AM I USING IT AS A PROP FOR A PHOTO OPPORTUNITY how many different ways do I need to say this?

    I think they sound nice. I got all my girls scarfs for my January wedding. Not for pictures. Not to be outside. But because it's gonna be hella cold and it was nice. Good luck finding what you need! It wasn't helpful, but I understood what you were doing.

    Some Etsy sellers have Pashmina scarves in different colors and sell them in packs.

    I almost bought a 6 pack of the cream/ivory color for my BMs and FGs, but decided against it, especially since I didn't think any of them would ever use them (ESPECIALLY since one of them lives in Arizona! hah!) Plus, we're not doing any outdoor pictures so it just would've been a random wintery gift.

    It came out to be way less than $25 per scarf. I think closer to $10 per scarf

    I like this idea. What color dresses will they be wearing?

    I did the same for my bridesmaids! They'd all said it would be cute for our winter wedding, so I surprised them all with one for each of them. It's mainly for getting in and out of the limo to the ceremony and reception. Winter is unpredictable in these parts, so I wanted them to have a wrap just in case it does end up freezing!

    I'm getting married in January. I'm looking for scarves or wraps also. I'm always cold, indoors and out so a wrap is nice for inside the venue if needed.

    This is so hilarious to me.


    I'm having an outdoor wedding, in the middle of February, in the middle of the Rocky Mountains at a time when not only is snow expected but we are PRAYING for it. That's who I am, that's who my fiancé is ... we live for winter and if someone doesn't want to come, then don't? My bridesmaids are mostly from Arizona and California and they are so excited! They are fully prepared to be freezing cold but they are so stoked for an experience that completely encompasses us as a couple.


    I'm also looking for shawls and I find these recommendations so helpful. Everyone else complaining - get off of here? She asked for recommendations, not your opinion on the cold, ya bridezillas.
