Choosing bridesmaid dresses can feel like the hardest part of wedding planning. You want a look that suits your wedding, flatters everyone, and doesn't cause arguments in the group chat. These five tips make it easier.

1. Pick a colour palette first

Start with your wedding colours, your venue and the season. Soft shades work well for spring and summer weddings, while deeper tones suit autumn and winter. Choose two or three colours you love, then narrow down from there.

2. Choose a flattering fabric

Satin, chiffon and crepe all drape beautifully and photograph well. Think about the weather too: lighter fabrics are better for a summer wedding, and heavier ones keep everyone comfortable in colder months.

3. Mix styles, keep the colour

Your bridesmaids probably have different body shapes and different tastes. Letting each one pick a neckline or silhouette in the same colour means everyone feels comfortable and confident.

4. Order early

Bridesmaid dresses can take time to arrive, and alterations take longer still. Aim to order at least [8-12 weeks] before the wedding, and check [delivery times] before you commit.

5. Check sizing carefully

Ask every bridesmaid to measure herself rather than guess. Check the size guide for each style, because sizing can vary between dresses.
