How To Choose Your Bridesmaid Dresses

Once you’ve decided your wedding theme and wedding colors you can the begin to look at your bridesmaid dresses and then begin choosing the bridemaid dresses.

In most cases the bridesmaid dresses are coordinated with the basic wedding color theme. The style is entirely up to you. The classic A-line bridesmaids dresses are still very popular.The most common color choices are still pale gold, blue and pink. A strapless corset top with a full skirt are also still very popular bridesmaid choices.

In the past few years we’ve seen brides choosing stronger and or brighter colors for their bridesmaids. It’s a fabulous transition to the drabness of the past. We are seeing more brides choosing colors such as turquoise, red, purple, and yellow.

We are also seeing a huge come back in backless dresses, halter dresses , and sweetheart neckline dresses. This seasons 5 most popular fabrics are silk, satin, taffeta, organza, and lace.

Bridesmaid dresses come in a variety of styles so what ever your wishes your will most certainly be able to find the dresses that please you.

Depending on your wedding theme your bridesmaid’s flowers can range from wearing a single flower corsage to carrying a larger flower bouquet. Perhaps you’ll skip the flowers and have them carry dainty handbags that match their dresses. Small handbags are great stuffed with flower petals that are then scattered behind the bride.

The bridesmaids dresses and attire should compliment the bride. Their design is usually quite simple so as not to take away from the bride. They are very easily made more glamorous simply by adding the right accessories – a beautiful broach or necklace can add the finishing touch. Bridesmaid tiaras also look quite stunning. Tiaras, jewelry, and flowers can add the final touches to bridesmaids dresses

An old tradition that has gone out the window is that all your bridesmaids must wear the same style dress. Today’s modern wedding allows for mixing and matching. You may want to put your bridesmaids in the same color but different styles that accentuate their personal body shape. Or you may want to put them all in the same style but different colors. Today most anything goes. Just as the bride need not wear a traditional white puffy gown, bridesmaids no longer need to look traditional either.

Once you’ve decided the theme of your wedding, and the style of the brides dress, then you can move forward to choosing bridesmaids dresses. It’s your day and your wedding so dress your wedding party to fit “you”. I guarantee if you stay with this philosophy you will be pleased with the outcome!
