Bridesmaid dress style

Lynne, on February 3, 2022 at 8:59 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 2 9
I said to my dress today and I couldn't be happier. But now I'm stumped on what style or length to have my bridesmaids wear. I'm thinking long and flowy. Is it wrong, if I ask for no lace?


My dress is in the picture Bridesmaid dress style 1

    Very few bridesmaids dresses have lace, so I wouldn't worry about that too much. I would think about the climate and what your ladies would feel most comfortable in -- if your wedding is in August, then shorter dresses might be appropriate. Do you have a color scheme? That's another obvious place to start, you can have them all wear the same color or give 2–3 to choose from. (I recommend same color for a small bridal party, mix and match for a larger party.)

    5 bridesmaids (one being the MOH). But, it's an indoor venue with a/c. I definitely want the same color.

    As the bride you're entitled to ask for whatever you want!

    I think something plan would look nice with your dress. The other option is a little bit of lace, to tie in. For eg, something like this:

    Or something very different to contrast, like a plain satin or a chiffon:

    I was a bridesmaid for my friend who had the same dress as you. We did long gowns. Mine was chiffon and the other bridesmaid's was satin, maybe this pic will give you an idea what it could look like with these styles.

    My matron of honor (1) and bridesmaids (3) all picked out this one (and David’s Bridal has several “flutter sleeve” options with or without a slit). I only asked that they look at long dresses and in Wine or Dusty Rose, and surprisingly they all loved this one in Wine (looks darker, more of a deep wine/burgundy, in person). My wedding dress doesn’t have any matching elements to their dresses, unless you count the length 😂

    Cute!! And, if you did want to coordinate, a sash (or even one in the same color/style) could easily accomplish that.
