With millions of colors available, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed when selecting the perfect shade to complement the bridesmaids’ dresses on your special day. There’s a lot to choose from, but not all of them can be considered the best choice for a spring wedding.
In this article, we’ll cover five of our favorite spring bridesmaid dress colors and explain why they’re perfect for your special day.
Lavender
Lavender is the best choice for those that want to weave together elegance and romance. This soft purple hue beautifully reflects the awakening colors of the spring season, echoing the blooming flowers and budding trees.
It also flatters a wide range of skin tones, with lighter lavenders enhancing fairer complexions and deeper lavenders bringing warmth to richer tones – something for everyone.
We also love that lavender pairs effortlessly with other spring colors. Picture your bridesmaids walking down the aisle in flowing lavender dresses, complemented by bouquets of pastel pink peonies and soft green eucalyptus – a color scheme that really evokes the joy and tenderness of spring.
Dusty Blue
Dusty blue is another stunning selection for your springtime wedding. With this color, you get more of a muted shade that’s reminiscent of a clear spring sky. It brings a sense of sophistication and understated style, perfect for a formal or even a quirky wedding.
Dusty blue complements a lot of different types of wedding themes, from romantic garden ceremonies to airy beach weddings. The soft hue that comes with this color also offers a really forgiving and universally flattering look for all bridesmaids.
If you’re looking for ideas on how to pair this color with accents, consider wispy dusty blue gowns, accented by bouquets filled with white roses and pops of peach or lavender.
Blush Pink
Blush pink bridesmaid dresses are one of those timelessly elegant options that best complement the fresh, blooming ambiance of spring weddings. Mixing tones of romance and femininity, it’s hard to go wrong with blush pink as your bridesmaid dress color.
Though it’s a subtle shade, it can still complement a number of different various skin tones like all of the other colors on this list.
That’s not all – blush pink is probably the best color to accessorize with ease, whether you’re choosing floral bouquets, shimmering jewelry, or chic hairpieces. We love this color for its versatility and at the same time, subtlety, which helps it adapt to any wedding theme or décor.
Mint Green
If you’re going for a natural, refreshing, and vibrant choice for your spring bridesmaid dresses, mint green is the way to go. With its hue leaning more towards cool and soothing tones, it can really complement the ‘awakening’ of nature during the spring season alongside lush greenery and blooming flowers.
As you can probably guess, this color is ideal for outdoor weddings or garden ceremonies, effortlessly complementing the verdant surroundings. Like lavender and blush pink, mint green can also be a versatile backdrop for a myriad of complementary colors and floral accents, perfect for when your bridesmaids want to go all-out with accessorizing in a cohesive way.
Buttercup Yellow
Buttercup yellow is one of the most lovable colors out there. This cheerful hue captures the warmth and optimism of the season, symbolizing both the start of a union and the spirit of spring simultaneously.
Beyond just flattering a variety of skin tones, buttercup yellow also adds a touch of radiance to your bridesmaids’ look. Worn on a bright, sunny spring day, this color can make for a most cheerful ambiance, as it represents happiness, warmth, and joy.
What Makes a Good Bridesmaid Dress Color
Each of the colors we looked at is versatile while also harmonizing with the overall theme and ambiance of the wedding, and flattering the diverse skin tones and personal styles of the bridal party. They’re also great for both classic and modern aesthetics, both of which you can find in this bridesmaid dress collection.
While this is true if we’re being ‘objective,’ we believe that the perfect color can only be the one that you and your bridesmaids ultimately love the most. After all, if you’re not able to choose your favorite color for your bridesmaids’ dresses, is it really the best choice?
Think about what colors resonate with you and the theme/setting of your wedding, and then decide which one you want to go with.
