Choosing Your Beach Bridesmaid Dresses

Choosing Your Beach Bridesmaid Dresses

The dress clothes worn on the beach differs vastly from the one worn in a church or even another outdoor setting. In addition to choosing your wedding dress and accessories, you'll also need to choose an appropriate dress for your bridesmaids.

Not only does a beach dress simply differ from the traditional bridesmaid dresses, it also stands to be a bit more versatile for women of various sizes. Here are some tips for you:

1. Weather

Ideally, the day will be warm, pleasant, and perhaps slightly windy.

If the wedding is taking place in early autumn, you might expect a slight chill in the air. Take this into account when shopping for bridesmaid dresses.

2. Construction of the dress

Beach dresses should not be heavy or cumbersome; instead, they should skim the body gently and flow softly over a woman's figure. Avoid rich fabrics like velvet or wool that will be too heavy and stifling. Choose breathable, lightweight materials that keep the wearer comfortable all day long. Great choices include silk, chiffon, satin, cotton, or a light blend.

3. Length

As we know, long dresses will easily drag over the sand and sully the hem.

If you do wish to choose a longer dress, avoid anything that goes beyond the ankles, as this will make for some precarious situations for your bridesmaids.

Ideally, beach dresses should be cut to knee length or a bit shorter. This is practical for the setting, and the weather.

4. Color

A beach wedding is the perfect setting to incorporate light, airy colors, such as pink, blue, yellow, mint, and other pastels. You can even get away with a light metallic, like champagne or gilded beige, for a beautiful, elegant look.

5. Embellishments

In fact, less is more when it comes to dress adornments. Avoid overly formal details, such as sequins, beading, and other intricacies. Embrace simplicity and choose dresses that boast softly feminine details, such as fabric or lace overlays, slight pleating or perhaps a very slim line of ribbon or thin beaded trim.

Well, if you have a dreamy bridesmaid dress, no matter it is of a picture or conception; you can send the picture to our custom made service, more details and your measurement are also needed.

Have your perfect wedding!
