Blue Bridesmaid Dresses

Traditionally, brides have worn a blue garter as their something blue, but there is nothing to say you can't incorporate your something blue in other ways, like choosing blue bridesmaid dresses or having your maid of honour wear blue.

There's no rule that says it has to be the bride that wears blue so why not make your bridesmaids your 'something blue' if you haven't already settled on a theme or a colour? Blue is a particularly adaptable colour, from darker shades like navy through to cornflower and pastel blues. There is something to suit every style of wedding and season

Blue is a versatile colour which looks great in any setting. Before choosing which shade of blue, you may want to consider the location of your wedding, time of year, venue or theme which will help to define the best shade of blue for your big day.

For a classic and timeless look, you may opt for navy blue, which looks great all year round. For a lighter or pastel theme, light blue or baby blue are great choices, especially for destination weddings or summer.

It’s important to know how to look after them properly to ensure they maintain the best possible quality, before, during, and after the wedding.

Be sure to carefully follow the care instructions. To
avoid wrinkles, store the dress in a breathable garment bag in a cool, dry
place. Avoid exposing it to direct sunlight or extreme temperatures, as this
can cause discolouration and damage to the fabric.

Our blog covers everything you need to know about caring for your bridesmaid dress before, during and after the ceremony.

Of course, get opinions and do your research but at the end of the day, you know what the vision for your wedding day looks like. You might have always planned to match the groomsmen and bridesmaids. Nevertheless, there are pros and cons to be aware of if you choose to go down the matching route.
