Your bridal party should by no means steal the show on your big day, but they should stand out from all the wedding guest dresses. Floral bridesmaid dresses are 2025’s answer to doing exactly that, and are proving more popular than ever with brides-to-be who want something little different.
I know what you’re thinking. In the words of the Miranda Priestly “florals? for spring? groundbreaking,” but this time, they actually are. For SS25, florals have stormed the runway with force, with Versace’s line up featuring a rich mix of posy prints in purples, oranges and greens. Stunning for summer wedding guest dresses, too.
This year, I get to be a bridesmaid for two of my favourite people, and both have opted for floral-inspired bridesmaid looks. Traditional dresses are less in demand now, with brides opting for r unique bridesmaid dresses for their bridal party. From white bridesmaid dresses to black bridesmaid dresses, multiway bridesmaid dresses that suit every body shape and even short bridesmaid dresses, there are more options than ever before when it comes to what your girls will wear on your big day.
Opting for floral printed bridesmaid dresses makes life easier on the ‘pleasing everyone’ front, too. With different skin tones and body shapes to take into consideration, not every colour on the wheel will suit all your besties. Mixing and matching fabrics, prints and shades of a colour, however, makes life a whole lot easier. Everyone gets to be in something a little different that way, and will likely feel a lot more comfortable because of it.
It’s worth noting that florals aren’t just reserved for weddings taking place in warmer months. Floral bridesmaid dresses can work just as well for winter weddings depending on the colour palette. And if your budget is a concern, there are plenty of floral bridesmaid dresses on the high street.
