6 Rules For The Best Bridesmaid Dresses For Beach Weddings

Whether you are heading off to say "I do" at a fabulous resort on a tropical island or holding an intimate affair in the coastal town that you grow up in, there is a growing trend in brides who are forgoing the traditional church wedding and reception for a wedding and reception on the beach. It's exciting to know that you will be exchanging vows with your best friend with the sand under your toes and overlooking the ocean. But, many brides in this situation all find themselves asking the same question. Where will I be able to find bridesmaid dresses for my squad for a beach wedding? Whether your dream wedding is a formal affair or a casual barefoot event that happens to be taking place on the beach, then you have come to the right place. Discover a collection of bridesmaid styles that are perfect for any outdoor wedding. Shop exactly what you are looking for in our collection of hand-selected, coveted bridesmaid styles.

 



1. Pick The Right Fabric For The Weather

Most of us agree that the best fabrics for beach weddings are lace and chiffon as they are airy and lightweight and can be found in every imaginable silhouette, color, and style offering a whimsical vibe. Because of this lace and chiffon are hands down the best choices for beach bridesmaid dresses. Just because the big day is on the sand overlooking the ocean don't forget to take into account that even the seaside can be chilly at night. If the event is taking place on a month that is known for having chilly nights, be sure to have a jacket or shawl to keep you comfortable if there starts to be a chill in the air.

2. Choose The Right Length - That's Completely Up To You

Having your wedding and reception on the beach doesn't mean that it does not have to be a formal affair. How formal the wedding is, is completely up to you. We have seen very casual laid back beach weddings to most lavish of weddings imaginable. It's important to decide how formal you want your wedding to be before you decide the length of the bridesmaid dresses.

3. Mix And Match Silhouettes

Since one style does not always fit all when it comes to body sizes and dresses many modern brides are suggesting their bridesmaids choose a beach bridesmaid dress that best complements their individual body type. For your bridesmaids who have a pear shape, a fit and flare style is recommended. For those that are top heavy, we recommend a bridesmaid ensemble that has straps. For those with thin body shape, high low hemlines help create curves. It is so important that no matter the style your gals choose they should feel beautiful, comfortable and confident for the big day!




4. Embrace Bold Brights Or Lovely Pastels  

The colors of your wedding may be one of the most exciting decisions that you get to make when you are planning your wedding. Many brides choose to compliment the natural landscape and opt for beach wedding attire that compliments the surf, sand, and sea. With those weddings we see soft neutral hues to vibrant corals to bold turquoise tones or pale shades of blue, all of these color choices are gorgeous. Choose colors that you love whether they are shades of blue or sea inspired greens. But, don't quickly dismiss eye-catching brights that add brightness and energy to your wedding.
