Winter Bridesmaid
Dresses
Winter wedding has its own charm
with chilly winds and the beauty of the snow. Glittering lights
and candles and the rustling fireplace provide warmth during
the wedding. But planning a wedding in winter comes with its
own set of challenges as the weather is unpredictable. You have
to prepare for both sunny and snowy weather
changes.

In New Zealand, all the bridal stores keep themselves
well prepared with the seasonal changes and hence buying
a winter bridesmaid dress in this country is not a big
issue. Winter bridesmaid dresses should be in darker
winter shades like wine red, evergreen and royal blue.
Heavy fabric like satin, silk or velvet should be chosen
to provide warmth to the bridesmaid. Long or tea length
dresses would look exquisite on a winter wedding
bridesmaid. The sleeves of the dress would obviously be
long or quarter. But if you want to experiment with no
sleeves, just carry a complementing shawl or a jacket.
Another option is to try a three piece dress to protect
you from the chilly winds. Vintage dresses are the best option as
they can be worn again on some other occasion. Simple
classic evening gowns give an elegant look to the
bridesmaid.
For outdoor winter weddings, tailored
suits or ball gowns would be appropriate for a
fashionable bridesmaid. Fur jackets and fur gloves can
accompany a strapless dress. Remember that whatever style
you choose, it should complement with the dresses of the
bride and the wedding group.
