Bridesmaids dresses

If they like both ideas equally, that suggests no one has a strong objection to yellow, so I'd go with your first idea. It can be hard to get one dress that suits everyone, so assuming no one feels they would look horrible in yellow, giving them a choice of styles means each one can get a dress they feel happy in.

Alternatively, you could pick a few dress styles from the same range and give them a choice of 'any of these three dresses in any of these three colours'. If they are all in the same range and colour palette, it's still going to look cohesive.

It depends how many bridesmaids you have.


I had 6 and there was 3 different shades (2 of them in each colour) but they were all the same satin material so it all matched.
If you’re having 4 or less I would suggest different colours but the same style, if you switch up styles with less bridesmaids it looks a bit weird, unless you do 2 one style, 2 another style but all same colour? Honestly I’m saying all this though and it’s completely up to you!

Depending on the number of bridesmaids you have, if there are many, having the same color but different styles is great. If there are only two, I think choosing the same color and the same style is more important.

I have 4 bridesmaids and went with them all in the same colour but different styles. It really works! I did set some rules though; all chiffon and floor length. So they were different but not too different that it looked ‘too much’ if that makes sense!


I got the dresses from JJs House who also offer a ‘Try on’ option where you can order up to 3 dresses and try on at home before purchasing. I asked my bridesmaids to each choose 2 dresses and then I chose the 3rd. They tried them all on and then chose which dress they liked best and that’s how we got the different styles. They liked having a say in their dresses I think, as they are all so different and it was nice to get them a dress I knew they would wear again in future because they chose it!

Hi Harriet,

It sounds like you’re in a fun but tricky situation! Both ideas have their charm: different styles in the same color can create a cohesive yet unique look, while the same style in various pastel colors adds a playful vibe. To help decide, think about the overall theme of your wedding—do you want a uniform feel or a bit more variety? Level Devil Game You could also consider the body types and preferences of your bridesmaids to ensure they feel comfortable and confident. If possible, maybe you could compromise by choosing a few different styles in pastels that complement each other. Good luck!

Hi Harriet,

Yes, I love the idea of balancing both styles—it really depends on the vibe you're going for, right? If the theme is more laid-back and fun, pastels might bring that playful edge. But if you're going for something a little more cohesive, sticking to different styles in the same color could be the way to go. It’s a good shout to think about your bridesmaids’ comfort too, since that’ll make them feel their best. A mix of styles in coordinating pastels could really bring that balance! Thanks for the advice—I'll definitely keep it in mind.

Both ideas are gorgeous, but if you want to create a sense of harmony in your wedding photos, different colors are easier to coordinate – and yellow is so vibrant, bright, retro bowl college and full of life!

Bridesmaids' dresses play a crucial role in setting the tone and enhancing the overall aesthetic of a wedding. They not only complement the bride's gown but also help establish the color palette and theme of the event. Whether you choose flowing chiffon gowns in soft pastels for a romantic garden wedding or sleek satin dresses in bold hues for a modern celebration, the style and coordination of bridesmaids Planets ’ attire can bring harmony and elegance to the bridal party.

If you have a large number of bridesmaids, it's excellent to have them all the same color but in different styles. Selecting the same color and style is, in my opinion, more crucial if there are just two.
