How much are your bridesmaids going to match?

Are your bridesmaids wearing same, similar or different dresses? Same or different hairstyles? What about accessories and jewelry, will they be the same or different? Do you like the matching look or not.

    They are going to match. Exact same hairstyles. Same dresses, same shoes. Matching French mani-pedis. They'll wear the same earrings and jewelry.

    Thanks for the responses you guys!

    I've gotta say the mismatched look is more popular than I thought it would be.

    I'm not a fan of matching bridesmaids. Since I have 5 total, 3 will be in cabernet and 2 will be in dusty rose. Then they can do whatever they want for hair, makeup, accessories, and shoes.

    The dresses and colors are the same but they are picking their own jewelry, hair style and makeup. I just asked them to keep it simple and not mirror how i am going to do mine

    My bridesmaids can choose any style of dress they'd like as long as it is the same color and length. As far as hair and makeup go, they can have that done however they like. I love my friends, and I want them to look and feel incredible on my wedding day, and I feel like requiring excessive uniformity may stifle their own personalities/beauty. I love them for who they are, not how they can benefit me!

    I picked out a different color for each of my 5 girls, in kind of a sunset scheme. Each will wear a long dress but in their own color and whatever style they want. I'm getting them cute, simple pearl necklaces and simple gold waist belts that they can wear if they want. The rest is up to them!

    I have my bridal squad a color palette and let my MOH choose first. They have complete and total free reign with their outfits they just have to send me (and the rest of the squad) pics in advance so I can make sure that they compliment one another (:

    I have a BM & a Maid of Honor. Small wedding and both are matching but I’m not doing bridesmaid dresses. LBD cocktail style with a 50s/60s Aubrey Hepburn retro vibe. I have a vintage clothing store so we will all look retro but newer items. They are both short so the fit & flare looks great on them. Different shoes, hairstyles, accessories from my makeup artist. My fiancé loved the idea & the dresses.

    My bridesmaids are all wearing the same dress. 3 of the girls came with me to pick the dress, I want them to be comfortable. They’re also wearing the same shoes because the dress has a slit in it so shoes will be seen in photos. They’re doing hair and makeup however they want. And I’m buying matching jewelry for them as part of my wedding gift.

    I quite like the mismatched look, but I only have two bridesmaids and so I thought it would look a bit like I hadn't bothered, if you know what I mean? Several girls in dresses in different styles but one colour looks intentional. Two doesn't look like A Thing, if you follow me.

    So, mine are wearing the same dresses and shoes, plus hair pins and earrings, but they can have their hair any way they like as long as it incorporates the pins somehow, and whatever they tell the makeup artist is ok with me.

    My bridesmaids are all wearing the exact same dress (sleeveless, navy blue, tea-length, and with a rhinestone belt), but I told them they don't need to wear matching shoes or jewelry. In fact, I don't want them to because they're four very different people, so they should hold on to some sense of that.

    I'm not a fan of super matchy myself, however I am keeping my party pretty small. I've provided a color/shade, length, and material preference for the dress. Since I'm the shortest in the group, I asked everyone to be in flats for shoes. It's most important to me that everyone is comfortable and able to have a good time.

    I gave my bridesmaids a choice of two colors and 4 dresses. Independently they all chose the same dress. Smiley xd I got them matching jewelry to wear for the wedding, but shoes, hair and make up is all their choice, though I am paying for a makeup artist to do everyone's for the day.

    My bridesmaids are wearing the same color in all different styles. They are going to have different makeup and hair as well. I really want to show off their differences and let their individual styles come through.
