Bridesmaid Dress Help

Kerissa, on September 14, 2021 at 2:15 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 5
I love the satin bridesmaids dresses from David’s bridal, but I’m torn about whether or not the bridesmaids should wear satin if I am wearing a silk dress. Do you think shiny on shiny is a good idea even if the bridesmaids dresses are another color? Or would you go with chiffon for the bridesmaids to offset the silk?

    I think it would be really nice and cohesive.

    This is going to be 100% up to personal preference. For my personal tastes, I would want a variety of textures and sheens. I think everybody in smooth shiny fabric could look a bit redundant, and could make the bride blend in more instead of stand out. But again, that is just my personal preference. I found a photo online of a bride and her bridesmaids all in similar material. I will attach it so you can get a better visual idea of what it will look like, and whether you like that look :-)

    I agree, it's going to be personal preference! I quite like the look of shiny and shiny, or at least some similar elements to tie things together, and since they're obviously in another colour, I think the bride would very clearly stand out even if they were a similar finish.

    I agree!! The wedding dress color and silhouette are the big differentiators - not necessarily the fabric type or finish! I think a mix of fabrics looks great!!

    Here's a good photo from Pinterest of satin bridesmaid dresses against a tulle wedding dress:
