10 Bridesmaid Looks Perfect for Different Wedding Themes from Coast

Making sure your bridesmaids look just as fabulous as you do coming down the aisle is important. But bridesmaid dress shopping is not easy as you’ll almost certainly be dealing with different budgets, body types, and style preferences, whilst trying to find a look that suits your wedding theme! We have partnered* with Coast to show you the beautiful options from their bridesmaid collection.  

4 Top Tips for Matching Your Bridesmaid Looks to Your Wedding Theme

• Choose your wedding dress. Your bridesmaid dress choices will depend hugely on the style of your wedding dress. Your wedding dress is a good indicator of how your theme can be translated into a look. For example, if your dress is boho chic or red carpet glam, then you want your bridesmaid dresses to come under a similar heading. You want to make sure that your bridesmaid outfits flatter your dress and overall bridal look. So, make sure you have made your final choice on your dress before the bridesmaid shopping commences. 
• Consider your venue. Your wedding theme might influence the location of your wedding or vice versa. This can also influence your choice of bridesmaid dress. For example, if you are having a rural, outdoor wedding, then a slinky, sequin dress with stiletto heels might not be the best choice! Similarly to your wedding dress, you want your bridesmaids to look great but also feel comfortable throughout the day. 
• Communicate with your bridesmaids. Before you fully commit to a look, you should discuss it with your bridesmaids. While it is your big day, your bridesmaids should also be happy with the decision. Consider styles that would suit everyone and fit your theme perfectly.
• Decide on your vision. After considering all these factors, you are ready to decide on your vision! This is when you make the decision on what overall look you want for your bridesmaids. Do you see them in mismatched bridesmaid dresses that all follow a colour scheme, identical outfits for each or the same colour and different dresses? Once you have this, you know how many and what colour dresses to start looking for that will match your wedding theme.
