These are some of the things that you should consider to make sure that your bridesmaids are not just comfortable, but looking good as well. It is your wedding and they are there to make your day more beautiful with their presence, support, and well wishes for both you and your groom.
* Think about what style would they would enjoy and would be most comfortable wearing. While they may need different sizes, a beautiful style would definitely define whether they would be beautiful bridesmaids, or well, unhappy bridesmaids. The classic A-style dresses look good on almost anyone, but if you’re not sure ask for suggestions. It probably is safe to say that if they are involved in the creation of the bridesmaid dresses, they will like what they will be wearing and not be totally surprised and ‘forced’ to wear a gown they wouldn’t wear at all if they had the choice.
* While there are wedding gowns that may be worn in any season, consider the season when you’ll be getting married and then choose a ‘season-appropriate’ dress for your bridesmaids. Long sleeves or short sleeves, long gowns or knee-length gowns, round-neck or classic necklines – keep these in mind to make sure your bridesmaids are as comfortable as they can be.
* While you may have your own fashion style, it is suggested to stick to simple designs so your bridesmaids can wear their dress on other occasions. The ruffles and layers will need to go if you want a dress that your bridesmaids will wear after your wedding.
* Still don’t have a style, fit or color? Your couturier can give advice as to all of these things to ensure that both you and your bridesmaids will love what they will be wearing. You can also ask the bridal shop assistant for input. These people have seen almost all types of fashion during weddings and they will know which will work for your bridesmaids, and which won’t. Avoid guessing games as this is usually the reason why bridesmaids’ dresses have long earned the reputation of being hideous – and you don’t want that reputation for your wedding.
* You’ll be wearing white, but you can play around with your color motif, and choose a shade that will complement your bridesmaids. At this point, chances are you have already known your bridesmaids for quite a long time as friends, so you’d know which shade they’d be comfortable wearing.
Just as you are excited about your wedding day, so are your bridesmaids who are happy for you and your ‘happily ever after.’ So if you are going to spend the day looking like the most beautiful bride, your bridesmaids would love that idea too – so choose a good dress for them that they will love to wear and will remember your wedding day for, too.
Some weddings recently have thrown out the idea of cheap cocktail dresses and would allow bridesmaids to wear anything formal at weddings. This ensures that no bridesmaid will be left wondering how well or badly she looks since it’s her dress; and for the bride, this will let you save some cash that you might otherwise spend on the dresses for your bridesmaids.
