Is there anything worse than a bride surrounded by clone bridesmaids?
I honestly can’t stand seeing a wedding party where the bridesmaids are in the exact same dress, shoes, jewelry, and hairstyle. Not only does it look ridiculous to match everything perfectly, it’s unrealistic. Unless your bridesmaids actually ARE clones, not all of them are going to look their best in the exact same style dress. We’ve all seen the variation on picking a color and fabric and having every girl pick a different style dress, but that’s old news. That’s been done, and it’s boring.
If there is anything that will make your wedding day fresh and fashion forward, it is mixing and matching styles, colors, and patterns to create a look that is both visually appealing and cohesive. Enter the patterned bridesmaid dress. I love the idea of using a patterned dress to make a statement. Whether you choose floral, stripes, or polka dots, putting one or two bridesmaids, or the whole group in something other than a solid satin will set your wedding apart from the norm.
A few of my favorite bridesmaid looks:
Love this orange/turquoise/chocolate combo. So fresh and fun!
I love the muted tones of this one. I like how the lace is a subtle use of pattern in the dresses, and is perfect for the bride who wants something different, but not overpowering
I love this eclectic mix of patterns...talk about a look that’s so different, but comes together perfectly!
Love this pattern...yes, they’re all in the same dress, but the fact that it’s a pattern and not a solid makes it fresh!
Love the purple floral paired with a solid purple. This would be so great for a fall wedding!
Same pattern, different styles!
If patterns aren’t your thing, consider dresses in different shades of a color. I love the look of this wedding with bridesmaids in shades of aqua, turquoise, and blue
