Finding the perfect dresses for your bridesmaids couldn’t be easier

Dressing your bridesmaids can be almost as difficult as finding the wedding dress of your dreams. No matter what ages your bridesmaids may be, they will all have an opinion of what they do and don’t like, what they will or won’t wear. But the High Street is still a wonderful place to shop, and there is a surprising number of stores that have really captured the market for bridesmaid dresses, so here is a selection of useful shops to check out!

John Lewis

Has a lovely range of traditional-style bridesmaid dresses for little ones and pre-teens. Classy and not too expensive, any of these dresses would work well if you’re planning a traditional wedding. For older, more fashion-conscious bridesmaids, take a look at the dresses that come under the categories of ‘black tie’, ‘wedding guest’ or even ‘night out’. Obviously, these aren’t specifically bridesmaid dresses, but you may find something that fits with your chosen theme or colour palette that will perfectly fit the bill.

Marks & Spencer 

Also has a pretty range of dresses for bridesmaids and flower girls, with sizes ranging from 1-14 years. They also sell some very sweet little cardigans that are perfect if the weather is likely to be a little chilly.

Coast

 Adult bridesmaids and maids of honour should love the dresses in Coast. With one eye on fashion and the other on price, Coast offers a good range of dresses and quite a variety of colours – you can even go really bold with reds and purples!

Monsoon

You can always rely on Monsoon for style and quality. Shopping here takes you into a more expensive price bracket, but the wedding and bridesmaid dresses and accessories really are quite lovely – Monsoon dresses always seems to have little details that just make you fall in love with them. What’s also good is that Monsoon also has a children’s range, so if you have younger bridesmaids there will be plenty of choice for them, too.

TK Maxx

Bargain hunters know that TK Maxx is the place to go for designer outfits and knock-down prices. They don’t stock bridesmaid dresses, so look at their special occasion dresses instead. Turnover is fast, you might find the perfect dress in the wrong size or only one when you want three of the same, but if luck and timing is on your side you could find something fantastic!

NEXT

Next is still a great high street brand to visit. Again, you won’t find a specially designed range for bridesmaids but some of Next’s special occasion dresses could work really well depending on the look you want to achieve. Next also stocks Lipsy, which has some gorgeous dresses that can be worn for other special occasions as well as your wedding.

ASOS

Has a super range of bridesmaid dresses and they’ve even taken into account that not all women are a perfect 10, with dresses for tall, petite and plus size ladies – how to make them feel gorgeous without spending a fortune!

Twobirds

Twobirds is a really interesting concept. They’ve concentrated on coming up with a handful of dresses in a range of colours that can be worn – wait for it – in multiple ways! Potentially, you could buy the same dress for each of your bridesmaids and they could all look slightly different to each other. It’s a great idea, especially if your bridesmaids are different shapes and sizes, they can experiment and find the style that best suits their body shape.
