As wedding season approaches, we are already dreaming of every imaginable beautiful white dress for the bride and chic, modern dresses in gorgeous colors for the bridesmaids. So, in honor of those lovely friends and family members, today’s See Jane features ideas for styling your bridesmaids (as well as the other important women in your life!).
The actual number of bridesmaids in your wedding party may in part be dependent upon the number of groomsmen/ushers your husband-to-be plans to have. However, we know that there are often other dear friends, relatives, sorority sisters, etc., that you treasure and want to include in a meaningful way in your special day. We love the idea of having not only your bridesmaids supporting you alongside the altar but also “honorary bridesmaids” in attendance. Here are a few ways to highlight these wonderful women.
COLOR THEM HAPPY
Consider an accent color that you would like to highlight for your honorary bridesmaids. They need not be in matching dresses, they can simply choose attire in your accent color. Imagine the striking photographs featuring not only your wedding colors but also your accent colors…
A ROSE BY ANY OTHER NAME
The bouquets you’ve selected are wonderfully picturesque and Instagram – ready with colors, shapes and textures combining to create stunning bouquets. For your honorary bridesmaids, we suggest extending those extraordinary designs to stunning corsages. Each piece can be as unique and individual as your honorary bridesmaids. Select this lovely link to see Jane’s favorite corsage ideas via Pinterest.
H IS FOR HONORARY
This year’s monogram trend adds a personalized feel to every event! Think chic leather clutches, stylish engraved bracelets and beautiful Tiffany charms. (We know you have a few custom treat ideas in store for the bridesmaids.) So, for the bride who wants to make a more subtle nod to those special someones, we think monogrammed gifts are the perfect touch!
The options are endless for showing off those wonderful women - these are just a few favorites. For additional inspiration, select this lovely link to view our Pinterest Boards with over 2,000 ways to make your celebration stand out.

Who says the magic has to begin at “I do”? For today’s modern bride, every event leading up to the wedding is a moment worthy of sartorial celebration. From the engagement party to the rehearsal dinner and every toast in between, creating a beautiful and unique assortment of little white dresses is an opportunity for each bride to showcase her personal style. One of our favorite options is to choose a little white dress with a subtle amount of sparkle.
