The Unique Bridesmaid

A few weeks ago, Leila at Inspired By This did a fabulous post on mixing and matching bridesmaid dresses. I too, am a huge fan of the look! Bridesmaid dresses are seldom worn again, and giving your maids the chance to pick their own dress makes it more likely that they will wear it again, plus, they can pick a style they feel comfortable in. In addition to probably being worn again and being comfortable, mixing and matching dresses makes for some fabulous pictures and really lets the personality of each bridesmaid show through! After all, it’s personalities that make each wedding unique so give your maids a chance let their personalities come through too.

Another aspect to help make each bridesmaid unique, is giving them different bouquets. It could be all the same color with different types of flowers, or different styles of bouquets within your selected color scheme.

I am completely head over heels for ballet, as you know from this post. So when I was thumbing through the last issue of Martha Stewart Weddings in the store, I came across this feature with the American Ballet Theater dancers and I bought the issue, JUST because of this feature. I simply had to share it with you here. I hope you as inspired with the shoot as I am!

With cookie-cutter weddings a thing of the past, personalization for weddings is what its all about. When it comes to bridesmaid dresses, this is one aspect that still remains a little bit “cookie-cutter” in the wedding celebration. We are pretty much all familiar with the downfalls of the bridesmaid dress. Its worn once and then to the back of the closet it goes.
When my newest Victoria’s Secret catalog came in the mail, I looked through it and decided, “Hey, some of these dresses would be pretty cute for bridesmaids!” Not only are they less expensive then the average bridesmaid dress, they are super cute and would most likely be worn more than once! The only downfall would be there isn’t a vast array of colors for some of the designs. But none the less, I’m sure you could find something you love.
