When it comes to bridesmaid dresses, one style does not fit all. Forget the unflattering matchy-matchy dresses and have your bridal party wear different dresses in the same color family (make sure to find a shade that will flatter all skin tones in your group), or let your girls choose their own, mixing and matching colors and even prints. Not only will a variety of colors and styles make for fun wedding photographs, but you’ll also score “cool bride” points with your friends, who will appreciate a dress they actually can wear again.
