Bridesmaids dresses poll!

Vanessasaurus, on December 23, 2018 at 8:46 AM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 25
Hey everyone! I am getting married in June and still haven’t even asked all of my bridesmaids let alone pick dresses for them! Yesterday I went bridesmaid dress shopping for my cousins September wedding and it really got me thinking I need to get on this myself! My biggest take away from the day is that almost everyone looks better in deeper colors, so I wanted to ask the experts what color do think looks best on you! I am most likely not doing the whole in store experience because a few of my BMs do not live nearby, so I really need a little direction from you all!

So, what color would you prefer to wear... sky blue, dusty blue, or navy? Would all three of these be okay for a June wedding?

    I think all three will be pretty togather. The girls that are your bridesmaids did you tell them your wedding date?

    I personally think any blue works for June, but then I'm partial to blue. My bridesmaids are wearing royal blue. Their dresses are from Azazie. One already has her dress, still waiting on the other to order. The dress we chose is beautiful.

    The one who hasn't ordered yet did order a sample from them a couple of months ago and it was a good experience. It was only $10 to do so.

    I agree - I think blue is a beautiful June color! In fact, I’m getting married in June and my girls will be wearing dusty blue! We ordered from Brideside and it has been an excellent experience.

    I'd prefer navy because I think it's the most universally flattering color.

    I think all three are amazing options! I think sky blue would be really pretty for a June wedding! But, you could even have them wear all three colors! Smiley kiss

    Sky blue isn't something I would normally want to wear but the other two I would. I don't think the time of year has anything to do with what colours you choose, I'd think more about what vibe you want.
    The dusty blue feels more light and airy, the navy is darker and can make it more moody or vibrant depending on your accent colours. Sky blue would be bright and cheerful.
    If you're doing mismatched from different stores, the navy would probably be the easiest to get similar colours in

    I prefer dark colors so I’d do navy but I think dusty blue would be great!

    Azazie is great for bridesmaids living everywhere. You can get color swatches and samples. My girls did mismatched colors and styles from Azazie and it worked out great!

    I would probably pick a base color of navy, but then see if at least 1/3 of your bridesmaids would be interested in the dusty blue. Then you could mismatch! I did this - I had burgundy as the main color, but just asked around to see if anyone liked a dark green color (Christmas wedding). 3 / 6 did and it worked out great! But if one or none of the girls liked it, I would’ve stuck with burgundy.

    Checkout Windsor dress store for some low price dresses as well! They aren’t all bridesmaid dresses but depending on the look you’re going for you could find one that works! I bought 2 different styles for my bridesmaids all from there and it was $49 each.

    Yes they’ve all received save the dates and I asked 4 of them, but I am dragging my feet on asking my 3 cousins at the moment!

    I LOVE royal blue but we were pretty set on the men wearing navy! Are your men wearing black or gray?

    I was almost all set on a sky blue before this experience! Now I’m really thinking a dusty blue may be a good compromise! Darkish color but the men can still wear navy!

    It really is! The problem I am facing is we were planning to have the men in navy so we would definitely have to change that to avoid a navy army! (No pun intended)

    I never thought of using them all but that would be a cool ombre affect!

    Sky blue was my original choice but after BM dress shopping I cant even believe the difference light colors make! I LOVE the color I just don’t want anyone to feel like I did yesterday in my cousins blush dresses!

    I never considered this but that is such an interesting option! I need to play around with this idea!

    I think with your descriptions, the dusty blue might make the most sense! I really did like the sky blue for how summery it felt but I think the dusty blue could still feel airy! I already have blush and powder blue roses/hydrangeas planned and that might add some brightness to the gray tone of the dusty color!

    Do you have any pics! That sounds beautiful! I may play around with this mixed idea, I had never really considered it before!
