There is one dress brides always concentrate on when getting married. The big one. Don’t let yourself forget the rest though, they are just as important!
One thing that I find is always talked about at weddings is the bridesmaids. Generally, you hear, “Don’t they look beautiful?” or “I love how they match the flowers!” but the one you want to hear is, “None of them are as pretty as the bride.” Sneaky as it may be, a good way to ensure you hear this is to thoroughly consider the dresses you want for them. Taking your colour scheme into account, something too bright will detract from yourself, as will something too short, too tight or too low cut.
In the past, the happiest bridesmaids I have known are those who have been able to keep their dresses for future use. Something like the vintage inspired Ivy dresses from Fever would tick all these boxes. They are graceful and flowing meaning eyes will gaze over them lightly and the ladies could easily wear them for another occasion in the future as the colours are all workable. A particular favourite of mine is the Ivy Dress Merlot.
You are probably wondering what other dresses I could possibly be talking about apart from your dress and the bridesmaid’s dresses. Well, if you have enough to spend and you haven’t gone too over budget, I’ve always thought that at this new starting point in your life, a partially new wardrobe would be a sweet little indulgent. With the honeymoon planned, when is there going to be a better opportunity to buy a few new dresses? I love the range Fever has to offer at the moment for all kinds of casual and special occasions.
The Hurlington Dress Apricot is fun and flirty with pleated neckline detail and a gorgeous vintage inspired bird print originally sourced from Milan. If you are unsure how well patterned fabrics suit you, perhaps something a little more plain such as the Tilly Dress which is available in Navy, Red, Burnt Orange or Mustard. The Tilly Dress has panels that aid fit and shape and has cute pockets on the front: perfect for doing away with your handbag when you’re just nipping down to the hotel bar on your honeymoon!
