We love seeing a hint of a bridesmaid's style at the wedding. Here are a few ways to let your best friends show off their individual tastes and look stunning while doing so!  After all, their personalities are why you love them.

CUSTOM BOUQUETS

Pink and white striped Tulips with ruffled petal edges

Customize their bouquets or boutonnieres. Give each bridesmaid (or bridesman!) his or her own flower arrangement that differs by color or flower composition—think about each one’s personality and select signature colors or flowers to create a bouquet. We also love sewing a miniature monogram into the bouquet sash.  Swooning about these striped tulips with their delicate ruffled petals against a chic Gunmetal or Navy dress...

STYLISH ACCESSORIES

Another option is to collaborate with your bridesmaids on accessories, shoes or hair ideas.  Pinterest is a fantastic way to do this, especially if your bridesmaids don’t all live in the same city. Simply start a board with a few beautiful inspirational images, invite your bridesmaids to pin and voilà.  Many brands also offer a buy feature on their pinned items making purchases quick and easy (we love checking off our wedding planning to-do list with the help of our gal pals!).  Your bridesmaids will be lovely in (and love you for choosing!) a sophisticated Little Black Dress.  The Madeline (with our signature Melon lining peeking out) is one of our favorites especially when styled with chic Christian Dior Stilettos and a Gatsby-inspired vintage necklace...

BRIDAL MANIS

A third idea is a selection of stylish manicure or pedicure colors for the bridal party. We also love a modern manicure with a pattern--think floral or stripe motif in soft neutral hues.  Bridal manis are an easy way to personalize any look. Plus, it’s on trend!

It all comes down to what works best for you, your wedding style and your beautiful bridal party. Whatever you choose, we know it will be stunning!

Make sure to let us know how it turned out by tagging @JaneSummersFashion. We can’t wait to see it!

SEE JANE SHOP – WONDERING IF WEDDING DRESS SIZES ARE DIFFERENT THAN REGULAR DRESSES?

by Jane Summers

Wondering how to find your perfect fit in wedding gowns? Typically wedding dress sizes can be different from regular clothing sizes.
