We all know the wedding day is the bride's day, and she should stand out and look the best compared to everyone else. And I agree that should remain true, but you wouldn't want unhappy looking bridesmaids in your wedding day pics would you? Everyone should look and feel their best. This post is about bridesmaid dresses, and there are so many ways to approach it.
Traditionally, bride's like to have their bridesmaids look pretty uniform in color, length and all accessories matching one another. If you do take this route, why not find of an unconventional bridesmaid dress for your girls to make your wedding day more original. It's easy to go to a bridal store, but if you have a group of girls that want a dress with personality, check out departments stores or boutique shops for fun, stylish dresses. Your bridesmaids will be happier and a dress that doesn't look so "bridesmaid-like" allows your girls to wear them over again and again without the dress going to waste. And be sure to have fun with the bridesmaid accessories – shoes, clutches, tights and jewelry will help bring out the confidence you want in your wedding day pictures.
If you want to take the unconventional route for bridesmaids dresses, mix up the styles, the length, fabric and the texture of the dresses. However, give your girls a specific color palette to follow, put them to work, and let them go hunt for the perfect dress that reflect their taste and body shape. Tell them to buy a few dresses, and then get together for a dinner party at someone's house, and do a "Dress-Up" party. I think that would be so much fun. And you can see how all the dresses visually work together, and all parties should happier with the end result.
See below pics to see how much you can really push the style from one bridesmaid to the other, but you can see the overall visual continuity. I love it when you have 3 to 4 colors in your wedding color palette and each girl represents one of the colors. It's bold, and it adds personality to your photos.
