Bridesmaids Dresses: A Mismatched Melody

Yes, it’s a risk. However, the payoff can be major. Mismatched bridesmaids dresses: just another way to add flavor and interest to your wedding. To be certain one of your gals dosen’t end up in an honorary wedding dress or a skin tight mini, give them a guideline- such as a particular designer collection and be sure to let them know just how formal the dress should be.

Giving your favorite ladies the luxury of relaxation in a dress of their choice not only makes for happy bridesmaids, but for fabulous photos as well. Check it out.

    I adore mismatched bridesmaid dresses….but I’ve never seen them quite this mismatched! I like how they keep a consistant color scheme, but with totally different styles. Very unique! Great post!

    Love the mismatched look. Any thoughts on where and how to find them or do you just give your bridesmaids the color and length and let them decide? That seems like a big risk…

    I would say the best way to go about using mix matched bridesmaids dresses is to give your girls a few guidelines: tell them the color, length, and then give them 3-4 stores to pick from that have dresses that you trust (for example, Anthropologie, JCrew, Mod Cloth). Maybe even send them a few examples of the style or look you are going for. And sometimes it can be just as helpful to tell them what you DON’T want them to wear. :) Hope this helps!!

    @Jennifer- thanks that does help! I love ModCloth did some searching and found plenty of dresses on that site alone that would work!
