Love it or hate it, a bridal party dressed in white is gaining popularity. The world looked on during the Royal Wedding when Pippa Middleton graced our television screens in a gorgeous silky white gown carrying Kate’s train, resulting in Pippa becoming an overnight celebrity. Who can forget the Kardashian clan in all white mermaid style gowns during the Kim and Kris wedding extravaganza? We have a feeling this trend will be around longer than 72 days! In fact having your bridal party in all white is a very old tradition. The historic reason behind the monochromatic trend was to shield the bride from any evil spirits. If the spirits could not determine who the bride was then no ill fate would befall her.
White bridesmaids dresses make for a very crisp and clean palette. We think this wedding is so dreamy and romantic!
When you have your bridesmaids in all white it allows for endless possibilities when it comes to your floral arrangements. Your bouquets will really pop against a white gown allowing them to be the focal point.
If brides are worried about being outshined by their bridesmaids in white it’s a good idea to opt for an extravagant veil and headpiece. Another idea is chose an off white color such as cream, ivory, or blush.
