The number one worry of your friends when you ask them to be a bridesmaid, is “oh god, what is she going to make me wear. And how much is it going to cost?” If you yourself have ever been a BM, you understand the trepidation that girls go through. So how to please everyone? Some say it is impossible. Others say that it’s not your responsibility to make your friends happy- that it’s your wedding and they should do whatever you want. But is that what kind of bride you want to be, and more importantly, what kind of friend you want to be?
There are un-measurable ways to ensure that your vision is held intact while still making your bridesmaids happy. We previously wrote about allowing your bridesmaids to choose their own dress. We still believe that this is the best way to please everyone. This allows them to pick a dress based on their body type, personal style and budget, but within your guidelines.
But there are other ways to have a continuous look but still respecting your friend’s individuality. Think of something unique that you could do for dresses, while still taking into account your girl’s personal styles and body types.
One-shoulder dresses are a very popular trend right now. They are usually paired with an empire waist and an a-line skirt. Embellishments on these dresses help make them special.
Tea length dresses are usually the best length of dress to select unless you are going for a super formal look. You can keep these dresses casual or dress them up using accessories. They are also flattering on petite girls or taller girls.
If you are the type of bride that loves to be different, try incorporating texture or prints into your bridesmaid dresses. It’s a perfect way to show your individuality and give your bridesmaids something fun to wear- and something that they may wear again! Print dresses are becoming extremely popular for summer weddings right now. And don’t be afraid to use bold prints- that’s part of making your day special!
