Bridesmaid Dresses by Color
Your bridesmaid dresses play an important role in your wedding color palette. Choose a hue that will look flattering on all of your 'maids and that you'll still love years from now when you look at your photos. As a guideline, if your wedding is during the cooler months, darker and neutral colors work well. If you are a summer bride, you can go with brighter colors or pastels. Most of all, have fun with it!
