Selecting a bridesmaid dress that fits your design inspo can be challenging to say the least. I mean, we’ve all been there, right? Standing at the altar smiling to support our friends in a dress we very well know we won’t wear again.
All brides want their girls to be comfortable while also matching the aesthetic. This gets especially difficult when we remember that all bridesmaids are made in different sizes and that they all have different spending abilities. That’s why we’ve created a resource to help pool websites and dresses that are beautiful while also make your design dreams come true! We hope this can make the process even a small amount easier for you!
Whether your want all one dress, different styles in the same color, or mismatched dresses: here are some brands and websites that we love!

Best for budget friendly bridesmaids dresses: These are some of our most used websites and brands from brides. They all provide lots of color options so there is something for everyone! They also have lots of dress styles in each color which helps find a flattering style for all different shapes and sizes.
Best for luxury bridesmaids dresses: The following websites and brands are on the upper pricepoint. We’ve seen some brides pick specific dresses for their bridesmaids and if so- some help pay for the mre expensive dresses. If you’re letting your girls pick their dresses and budget isn’t as big a deal these are some great places to start! We love the high quality satin materials that both Reformation and Bec + Bridge and have had bride use them in the last few seasons with raving reviews!
Best for mismatching bridesmaids dresses (either styles or color/patterns): Mismatch colors and patterns have been a big trend these last few seasons that we love to see. Brides can do it in so many ways and these websites give options for price, patterns and colors!
