The Most Affordable (And Gorgeous) Options For The Budget-Conscious Bridesmaid

by Julia Weiner

Assembling a stylish wedding party can feel like an insurmountable task for a busy bride-to-be. On the other hand, asking bridesmaids to trawl for a hyper-specific look and spend their hard-earned money on it is equally stress-inducing. Thankfully a number of fashion-forward brands are now offering everything from elevated gowns to stunning accessories at affordable prices. Here, a few of our picks.

Here Comes The Bridesmaid!

The Dress

Flynn Skye has extended its classic, boho vibes into a brand new bridal collection. These carefree styles will ensure every girl in the bridal party will look stunning.

Reformation has endless options when it comes to wedding-appropriate attire. We love this off-the-shoulder dress that comes in 11 colors!

There is something so elegant about the non-traditional combination of white and ivory. These dresses do a beautiful job at complementing the bride's gown, without detracting attention.

The Shoes

Metallic shoes are having a moment this summer. This elegant pair will definitely be re-worn.

These modern sandals will take bridesmaids well into the big day and beyond. Paired with a dress for the wedding then later with distressed denim and a feminine blouse, they'll be on heavy rotation all through the summer.

Platform heels offer a nice alternative to stilettos, especially when you're on your feet all day (and night!)

The Jewelry

Jewelry can be a tricky concept when it comes to bridesmaids. Merjuri has delicate pieces with a trendy twist that make for delightful gifts.

We love these simple, versatile studs.

These statement pearl climbers will enhance any bridesmaid look.

The Robe

It's so much fun to get ready for the big day, especially when you're all wearing these glamorous, silky robes.

This floral print is made for a summer wedding.

If you're looking for a more comfortable option, this boxer set could be the answer to your prayers. It's perfect for hair and makeup, as it unbuttons and won't go over your head.

The Gift

Giving the bridal party a special gift can feel like quite the daunting task, especially in the midst of planning an entire wedding. This hand-blown glass votive looks stunning with any home decor style. Plus, 10% of the sale of every glassybaby is donated to the Glassybaby White Light Fund, aimed to help people, animals, and the planet heal.

This minimalistic, personalized journal is useful for everyone. It's perfect for mapping out plans or just jotting down daily thoughts.

This hydration-focused skincare set is a necessity after dancing the night away (and traveling home soon after). Bridesmaids and brides can all reap the benefits.
