Brilliant Bohemian Bridesmaids

Don't look now, but it looks like spring has finally sprung! The sun is shining, birds are chirping, and soon we will see the first colorful blooms begin to sprout. This week we've been focusing on the Boho-Chic theme because it's absolutely perfect for a spring wedding. It's fun, laid back, and often ties in some of the best elements of nature.

A wedding theme that is more relaxed is a breath of fresh air and one of the top trends for boho weddings is the mismatched bridesmaid ensemble. These options are a great way to have fun and flirty dresses to match each of your girls' personalities, while also complimenting you and your theme. Here are some great ways to shake up your wedding party and maintain a chic, coherent look.

Pretty in Prints
Having each bridesmaid wear a different print is an adorable alternative to the normally plain style, as long as you keep some elements to tie them all together. Some ways to do so include having your girls wear the same shoes, doing their hair in the same fashion, or wearing matching pieces of jewelry! You can also have them in the same print, but varying colors. One of the best ways to showcase this option is with lace or floral dresses. You can even add sashes of the same shade to really pull the party's look together. 

Coordinating Colors
Another approach to the mismatched bridesmaids is to play with color. Many designers have dresses with similar bottoms and varying tops, which makes it easy to choose different dresses in the same color that flow together seamlessly. If you want to add a little more of a boho vibe, then choose gowns in the same neutral color with differing lengths and necklines. You can always add fun accessories like hats, flower crowns, and chunky jewelry if you want to take it up a notch!

If you really want to accomplish a unique but chic bridesmaid party, we love the idea of mixing both patterns and colors. A great way to let your girls stand out while maintaining a flawless look is to choose gowns within a similar color pallet like jewel tones or pastels; that way the dresses still compliment each other and no one looks like they don't belong!

Tip: Mixing up colors and patterns are a great tool if you want your maid of honor to stand out in the crowd. Her dress can be the only one with a pattern or the only one with a solid color depending on which combination of styles you choose!

Go Convertible
If mixing colors and patterns isn't your thing, the convertible bridesmaid's dress may be the perfect route! We adore our new selection from Allure Bridesmaids.
