Don’t be afraid to let the colors vary a bit.

As long as they are within the same general color palette, they will still be an obvious part of the bride’s entourage. Let the bridesmaids pick out a dress that suits their figure, but yet still keeping in within the guidelines and requests from the bride. Communication is important to insure that the final dress selections look pulled together. For photos of mismatched bridesmaid dresses from real weddings, visit a similar post here.

Striped Bridesmaid Dresses

May 19, 2012 by lilly

Striped bridesmaid dresses are a fun and fresh way of pimping out your bridesmaids! Soft colored stripes give you a little more of a timeless and romantic feel, while bright stripes are sunny and playful. You might also consider having striped skirts or tops with a waist defining belt – very figure flattering and ultra-modern.

Different Bridesmaid Dress Ideas

April 25, 2012 by lilly

Who says you have to go to a local bridal boutique to purchase your bridesmaid dresses? Standing at the altar with a carbon copy of each one of your bridesmaids is “out”, while letting your bridesmaids all wear different bridesmaid dresses in varying colors, styles, lengths, and patterns is “in”. Yay for them! Let your bridal party celebrate different bridesmaid dress ideas that suit their own unique figure, budget, and personality. I love the way it looks, too!

You have a couple of options to consider when choosing mismatched bridesmaid dresses, all depending on the formality and style of your wedding. For instance, for a more formal look, perhaps have your bridesmaids all wearing the same color and material, but in different styles. Or, the same color of dress but in several different shades, such as pink, blush, coral, and rose.

For a more casual, rustic or country affair, I favor the free style appearance. Soft colors look best if they’re all going to be wearing different colors and styles. For instance, let them choose different colors in light shades of grey, pink, peach, and cream, but in any length, style and pattern that they choose. Even floral and striped patterned dresses have become popular for bridesmaids.

Don’t forget, you still want your bridal party to look like a bridal party, so guidance from the bride is very important to help keep the overall look together. The bridesmaids should all keep the wedding theme, formality, and bride’s suggestions in mind when choosing their dress.

The picture below is a good example of how a bridal party can all have completely different dresses, yet still have a corresponding look and feel. You can tell that they are all part of the bride’s entourage, but are still able to wear a dress that suits and flatters them.

Soft Grey Bridesmaid Dresses

January 23, 2012 by lilly

Grey may not be the color that immediately comes to mind when you think of a wedding, but it can certainly look stunning on your bridesmaids combined with the right decor and accessories. I especially like grey in a softer color, but a slate grey is also a popular choice.

Grey looks amazing when combined with bright colors in yellow and purple, or for a more romantic-chic feel, matching a soft grey with a blush pink is also gorgeous. Play up your accent colors in your bouquets, shoes, or sashes.

Also, consider letting your bridesmaid choose different dresses, but in the same color palette. This is a less uniform look than traditional, and allows your best girls to pick a silhouette that is not only flattering on them, but is also re-wearable for other occasions.

This dress is designed by Lela Rose, style # LR157XX. It is a satin strapless, empire waist, with cascading ruffles. The length is perfect – not too short, not too long. It is also available in floor length and 47 other colors. I think this a beautiful choice for spring or summer:

This is another one of Lela Rose’s designs: Style #LR120. I love the crinkled chiffon on this one – the material gives it an even softer feel. The hand worked origami trim is the perfect romantic touch. The satin belt placed at the natural waist makes this dress flattering on most figures. It is also available in other colors, including a darker charcoal grey:

Love the back! Another great dress designed by After Six Bridesmaids. Style #6550. It’s made with a matte satin and has a gently flaring skirt. The bow adds a lot of drama to the back, while giving it a more custom fit:

I like the large matte satin waistband on this one, it’s also available in over 50 color choices, making it easy to coordinate with your wedding scheme. Notice the pleated detail on the back of the bodice and skirt. Designed by After Six Bridesmaids, style #6506.

Cowgirl Weddings With Boots

January 5, 2012 by lilly

A Cowgirl Wedding is perfect for any girl who wants to show off her down-to-earth feminine side! Who says you can’t be sexy and wear your boots, too!? It’s certainly becoming a unique trend in the last few years, increasingly more and more popular, everything from the boots to the entire wedding theme, as brides are using their own personality to inspire their wedding day.

I absolutely love the idea of putting a little bit of country into a wedding. Casual and fun is becoming more popular than formal and traditional, so put on that big billowing white dress and slip on your cowgirl boots!

Soft Romantic Wedding Colors

December 2, 2011 by lilly

Choosing a soft color palette for your wedding is not only strikingly romantic, but timeless. It just screams elegance! The newest soft color trends for 2012 are calling for combined hues in peach, pink, nude and grey – everything from the bridesmaids dresses to the wedding cake. Just like the dresses shown below, you can let your bridesmaid each choose a dress of their own as long as it fits into your color scheme. This will make it easy for them to find a dress that suits their unique figure and that can be worn again and again.

Pearls and lace are very fitting with these color choices, further adding to the romantic appeal. I also like vintage or rustic elements thrown into the mix, making it even more enchanting. Click here for more romantic wedding inspiration.
