Once upon a time bridesmaid dresses close to white in color were considered a no-no, as to outshine the bride was avoided at all costs. Due to this we’ve seen bridesmaid dresses of all shades accompany white and ivory wedding gowns. News flash: these days the bride is giving her bridesmaids more and more room to shine. This trend is making way for timeless appeal, and colorless elegance.

A light-colored bridesmaid dress lends for a classic, no-fuss wedding appeal.

It’s chic.

It’s crisp.

It’s clean.

Here’s proof:

So much room, too, is left for bursts of color elsewhere for the bridesmaids; a black satin sash, fuchsia heels, or a pop of emerald jewelry earrings. So if you’re having a tough time deciding on the color of your bridesmaids’ dresses, think: champagne, ivory, cream, bone, and even (gasp!) white.

The very talented and artistic Holly Steen of Cakes and Kisses Wedding Photography shared one of her amazing photo sessions with us. She describes the shoot as “a fairy tale…magical, soft and romantic. This is a visual display of  the idealistic, unrealistic, visionary,  dreamy, Utopian, whimsical,  starry-eyed love.”  Here is her fabulous work.

Here’s another real wedding photographed by Beautiful Day Photography. The wedding is detailed with a georgeous combination of deep reds, whites, and touches of green and black.  Beautiful Day Photography captured amazing views of the wedding held at a private residence in Malibu, California. The details are stunning!
