Usually at a wedding, the bride will be wearing a wedding dress. So as a bridesmaid beside the bride, also need to wear a formal dress to keep harmonious with the wedding atmosphere. For a bride of wedding, two styles of dresses are needed (traditional Chinese dress and Western dress). But for a bridesmaid, an elegant dress is enough. Red and black dresses are not good choices; you should chose from some soft colors, such as pink, orange, champagne and purl. You should always remember not to choose flashy dresses, because it may steal the spotlight of the bride. The leading role of the wedding should always be the bride, not the bridesmaid. What’s more, a bridesmaid will walk a lot accompanying the bride, so you need really choose a pair of comfortable shoes.

If the wedding is hold indoor (a grand place, church for example), the bride usually choose a tail dress, the bridesmaid needs to wear a formal dress. The skirt need to be above the shoes, but the tail should be shorter than that of the bride, or it will exceed the show of the bride and affect your walking, because bridesmaid need to frequently help the bride hold the dress tail.

If it’s an outdoor wedding, bridesmaid can wear a short dress to create romantic atmosphere. A knee-length dress is OK, our movement will not be affected.

You need to pay attention to the similarity with the bridal gown when you choose a bridesmaid dress. It’s better a light color dress (but not white), such as pink, orange, champagne, green and light blue. Here I strongly advise you to choose a dress with perfect back design, because most of time, the guest can only see your back.

A bag is also very important to a bridesmaid. The bride doesn’t hold a handbag, but the bridesmaid does. But I don’t advise you to take a handbag, because you will need to use your hand very constantly. It’s better a shoulder bag, which prevents the situation that you cannot help the bride with your hand. Also the bad shouldn’t be too tiny, it’s at least as big as half a magazine, this way you can take care of more objects.

Accessories are very important for a bridesmaid too, but please always remember: get rid of all the subjects that may hamper your movement. A elegant necklace and a pair of earrings are your best choice.
