Whether your wedding is outdoors on a sun-drenched summer’s day, or in the depths of winter, green is a sophisticated, powerful and beautiful colour to dress your bride tribe in. If you have a wedding on the horizon, green bridesmaid dresses are a safe, vibrant and gorgeous choice.
Deciding on the right shade of green is a key part of your wedding planning though, and most brides want their bridesmaids to match up with their own, wider wedding theme. So, whatever season you decide to have your wedding, make sure you pick a green that complements the rest of your ceremony.
Luckily, variety certainly isn’t lacking in the fashion world, and there are plenty of styles out there that fit every theme. At Chi Chi London we’ve put this guide, and included some of our favourite green dresses from our collection, so you can find a dress that suits everyone in your bridal party.
Maxi Dresses
Maxi dresses are known for their elegance. On a bright summer’s day a flowing maxi dress might be just what you needed to add some pure sophistication to your bridal party. The long, green design will work perfectly for outdoor weddings, especially on an emerald green grass lawn.
We would also recommend pairing maxi dresses with some equally elegant jewellery, and gorgeous white high heels will round off that perfect summer wedding look.
Floral Patterns
Just because you’re going green doesn’t mean you have to lose those interesting patterns. In our eyes, summer is the perfect time to add some botanical beauty to a dress. Your bridesmaids will be especially thankful for those floral patterns, which add some natural and organic delight to a plain design.
Why not take it one step further and pair up those flowers with your wedding theme? We would suggest a cute daisy design, which encapsulates all that’s beautiful about the season. Keep your bride tribe looking chic with some gorgeous green floral pattern dresses.
Simplicity
Green bridesmaid dresses don’t have to be complicated either. If your tastes are more suited to the minimalist side of things, a simple design can make your bridesmaids glow. Lighter shades will reflect the dazzling brightness of the season and simple patterns could add a touch of extra beauty to your bridesmaids.
Minimalist designs have been in fashion for a few years now and they don’t look like slowing down any time soon. If you want a green dress design that will stand the test of time, put your bridesmaids up in a wonderfully simple dress.
Midi Dresses
Since exploding onto the fashion scene in the 1960s, midi dresses have become a staple of every girl’s wardrobe for decades. Fortunately, midi dresses are well-suited to almost all occasions when paired up well.
A summer shade of green suits a bridesmaid midi dress down to a tee, especially in the warmer months. Midi dresses also have the ability to retain a lot of the sophistication of maxi dresses, without the sometimes warm and uncomfortable fit. We would also recommend taking a look at some green and white polka dot midi dresses for your bridesmaids to add some cuteness to their overall look.
Darker Shades
Planning an evening wedding? Darker shades of green can offer a deeper and more appropriate alternative to lighter colours. A deep, sea green also has the power to level up the sophistication of your wedding and can intertwine with your wedding theme perfectly.
Darker shades can also complement white wedding dresses, offering up a point of contrast as you’re standing next to your bridal party. If you want to add some finesse and elegance to your wedding theme, dark green bridesmaid dresses will still look gorgeous in the photographs years later.
Embroidered
Embroidery has been a part of the fashion world for hundreds of years for a reason. There’s a huge variety of stunning embroidered styles that will suit your bride tribe down to a tee. Whether you want your bridal party dazzling your guests or sporting delicately laced patterns, green bridesmaid dresses fit perfectly with embroidered designs. Adding some floral flair to your bridesmaids’ embroidered designs will keep things thematic during those outdoor woody weddings too.
Satin
It doesn’t get more luxurious than satin. Satin and green are a match made in heaven and perfect for when you’re looking to add some extra luxury to your wedding pictures.
When your outdoors on your wedding day and the sun is shining, you won’t regret dressing your bridesmaid’s in satin. It has a naturally flowing texture which suits green perfectly. Midi dresses are well suited to gorgeous satin and they can work during any season of the year, not just summer.
All Shapes and Sizes
Fortunately, green also suits all shapes and sizes. Whether you have some future mums in your bridal party or little girls desperate to be involved, green is a delightfully useful colour when it comes to dressing your bridesmaids.
Green maternity maxi dresses look gorgeous on a warm summer’s day in the woods, and elegant tutu bridesmaid dresses for little girls will make your heart melt. Remember — your bridesmaids might be a diverse bunch, but they should look equally beautiful on the big day.
Sea Green
Some brides have their hearts set on a beautiful ocean wedding. With the deep blue sea behind you, the contrast of a sea green is the perfect complement. Sea greens are often lighter shades and add a unique pastel colouring to your wedding palette. Even at those woody, leafy weddings, a sea green can complement that natural backdrop perfectly.

And if your mind is set on a leafy wedding, you definitely can’t go wrong with the most natural colour of them all.
