Bridesmaid Dresses Worth an Oscar

Posted by Chrissy on Monday, March 30th, 2009 in Bridal Party

Have you ever noticed how important the supporting cast is in a movie, even with a great star? Well, if so, you can see how important the bridesmaids are to your starring role as the bride! Now all you have to do is make sure the ‘costumes’ are just right.

David’s Bridal can help you do that, but, you’ll have to decide on a few key points such as style and color. With so many wedding themes in play today, the options are wide open. You can outfit each bridesmaid with the same style dress, or you can go with a unique look for each. You can choose similar or contrasting colors. Casual or elegant, long or short hem… who knew there were so many choices available?

Never fear. Sure, you’ve got a million and one things to think about while planning your wedding, but choosing bridesmaid dresses doesn’t have to add to the stress. In fact, it can relieve some stress if you allow yourself to enjoy the process. Let the bridesmaids help with this selection by having a party and making a game out of looking through the available options.

One gal will have her eye on that floor-length elegant strapless blue jersey. Who wouldn’t? Then you can all give an opinion about how well you think it might go with the overall ensemble of the bridesmaids. Another may think the sleeveless crinkle chiffon in hot pink is to die for, and who could argue with her? That split front will certainly make for easy movement on the dance floor at the post-production party, er, the reception.

Now take all those different options you looked through and you can have your own ‘Academy Awards’. You can imagine the categories for yourself.

There might be one style that is the perfect period-style gown for a Victorian-themed wedding. Another might get the special effects prize for the way it manages to stay in place with no straps and a ruched chiffon bust. Another could get the soundtrack award for all the oohs and aahhs it solicits. The Best Art Direction award might go to that stunning floral print with the perfectly placed hemline.

Once everyone votes you can tally the score. You’ll find there are only winners among the bridesmaid dress choices at David’s Bridal. Choose whichever style you like best, and you can then get ready to walk down the aisle at your wedding ceremony.
