Brides and bridesmaids

Brides and bridesmaids go hand in hand, especially when making one of the most important decisions of the entire wedding process – what gowns to wear. It is often difficult to know where to start when deciding on the style of wedding dress that you’ll wear. Here at Bride, we’ve got some tips of the trade so you know all the basics on prices, styles, fabrics, shapes and colours that are perfect for your brides and bridesmaids’ gowns.

Your wedding dress and bridesmaids’ dresses give you the opportunity to enhance the theme of your wedding through colour and style. The difficult part of the process is that each of your bridesmaids will always have her own unique style and shape, so it can be hard to find a dress that suits everyone. With all the many different options for bridesmaids’ dresses, keep in mind they don’t all have to be the same.

With many fashion labels creating gorgeous cocktail dresses these days, there are so many more dress options, so you shouldn’t be restricted to bridal-wear designers. Before you start, have a rough idea of the colour schemes you want to work with to narrow the search, then make a girls' day of it and go in search of the gowns that will appear timeless in your wedding photographs.

For inspiration and ideas, take the time to browse our wedding fashion gallery for a carefully chosen group of designers and both their brides and bridesmaids gowns. Also, check out Bride’s Pinterest page for more photos of beautiful brides and bridesmaids on wedding days.
