Traditional vs. Trendy Bridesmaid Style Guide
When dressing your wedding party, you must decide if you want to be traditional or if you are trendy. Personally, we love the look of a traditional bridal party. Everyone in the same dress in the same color. Traditional Bridesmaids companies like Bari Jay can make this possible as we offer maternity styles, jr bridesmaids styles, extra length or petite length and customizations that make your wedding unique to you and allow for your entire bridal party to be dressed and comfortable size 1-26W, shorter or taller, pregnant etc. We have been doing this for over 50 years!
Color Me Trendy: Bridesmaids Dress Color Swatch Guide
Starting around Thanksgiving the proposal season begins, and we start to think about what trends we are seeing in weddings coming down the pipeline. We get tons of requests from brides to be and they are usually very specific. Color wise, even though pantone’s color of the year is a vibrant purple, we have had lots of requests for Lavender. And most recently, many requests for sage, sweet mint and hunter green! Bari Jay is adding a slate blue that will be available by January 2019. Let’s talk color!!
