bridesmaid dresses
typically, bridesmaids stand next to the alter like a uniformed army of friends ready to obey their captain's [brides'] ever command. hold your flowers? yes ma'am. smile for 1230984 pictures? happily. wear this ugly dress? of course -- it's my duty.
it's a long-running joke that brides make their ladies wear hideous dresses to take any potential attention away from them, and onto the newly mrs. fortunately, i [personally] don't see this as a current trend. bridesmaid dresses are now, more often than not, chic & flattering. brides appreciate their friends & reward them by choosing beautiful dresses.
still, the whole "all bridesmaids wear the same" deal isn't really my scene. [once again, i remind readers that i am nowhere close to getting married -- i just happen to think about weddings way to often] instead, i prefer the "different but the same" look : identical styles, different colors; identical color palette, different styles; identical flowers, completely different dresses even!
just take a look at some images i have compiled from real weddings, via wedding blogs, etc. :

now, once again i remind whoever may be reading this : i am nowhere near marriage. but... if my wedding were tomorrow, my bridesmaids would wear a soft yellow color dress, in whatever style they choose/best suits them. [yellow, similar to the second to second picture i posted here, because the theme will be daisies - my all-time fave flower. sigh. wish i could say i didn't have this all planned out since i was 16!]
happy hump day!
