Bridesmaid dresses if men in velvet jackets

Katie, 7 March, 2023 at 07:35 Posted on Wedding Attire 0 5
Hey all, we are in the early planning stages for our November 24 wedding but I have fallen in love with velvet jackets for men. I am more than happy to have velvet as my texture throughout the wedding but does that mean my bridesmaids have to wear velvet too. I have a couple of bridesmaids who are plus size and worried that it wouldn't suit them.
Any advice/ideas welcome?
Thanks 😊

    It's fine for the bridesmaids to be in a totally different texture - think about the different textures in devore velvet, or how a velvet jacket will sometimes have a satin collar & cuffs. And the men won't be wearing velvet ties and shirts with their jackets!

    But if you want to go for all-velvet, I don't think your plus-size girls need to worry. Velvet will be a lot more flattering than some of the more shiny satiny fabrics that are used in bridesmaids dresses - as a general rule, darker colours and matt fabrics are more slimming than lighter colours and shiny fabrics. So the same colour dress would be much more slimming in velvet than in a satin.

    Velvet is perfect for your Nov wedding! You can totally rock a velvet wedding dress—it’s so luxe and cozy, pairs beautifully with the guys’ velvet blazers. Bridesmaids don’t need velvet too, flowy fabrics flatter curvy figures wonderfully. My friend found great pieces at https://www.azazie.com/all/bridesmaid-dresses, they matched her velvet bridal look so well

    Despite its durability, impact or extreme heat can sometimes necessitate a quartz worktop repair. Minor chips or scratches can often be addressed with a DIY epoxy, but for cracks near the sink or seams, professional quartz worktop repair is advised to prevent further damage. Experts performing a quartz worktop repair will use color-matched resins to make the damage virtually invisible. To avoid needing a quartz worktop repair, always use trivets under hot pans and never cut directly on the surface, as this protects both your quartz countertops and your investment .
