Green Is The New Black: A Green Bridesmaid Dress Is Sure To Turn Heads!

Back List

Choose a green bridesmaid dress for your bridal party. The color is flattering on most and super easy to coordinate for every theme and season—from wintery ivy to summery turquoise.

So, you’ve finally perfected your color palette, organized your wedding mood board, and are matching together with your memorable color motifs. Now it’s time to pick a color for your dedicated bridesmaids. These are the girls who you’ve texted floral arrangements in the middle of the night; who’ve been there for all the tastings, fittings, and endless debates over cake flavors and seating charts. You want to pick something both flattering and stunning—something that will make them glow on your special day.

If you’re like most brides, you might opt first for a sensible, flattering, neutral color for your bridal party. Maybe something muted, like a taupe, mauve, or blush. These are all nice choices, but you don’t have to sacrifice memorability for versatility. If you want a color that’s flattering but also easy to coordinate, go green!

There’s a green bridesmaid dress for every theme and season. From wintery ivy to summery turquoise, Afarose has a wide selection of greens you can swatch before picking the perfect outfits.

Pastel Green Bridesmaid Dress

If you want something refreshing and light, consider pastel tones like sea foam, seagrass, and sage. These shades are tranquil yet crisp: perfect to add some pop to your color palette without overwhelming. A soft green bridesmaid dress is a nice alternative to nude or blush tones. A ruched or ruffled seafoam dress is perfect for a beachy vibe, or you can go romantic and sophisticated with sage floral lace.

These sweet, fresh looks are beautiful for summer and spring weddings. Softer shades like these go well with warm neutrals (like ivory and cream), other pastels, and darker complementary colors such as teal.

Teal Bridesmaid Dress

If you take inspiration from the ocean’s blue-green hues, but want a color a bit more nuanced than turquoise, opt for teal or petrol. The blue tints in these hues add some depth to a more traditional pure green and make a rich option for an elegant winter wedding.

Pair this shade with a long gown for a look that’s bold, but not too heavy. Taking a classic v-neck, wrapped bodice, A-line silhouette like Alice by Afarose and wearing it in a bold color like teal is a perfect way to update a traditional look. Or you can pair this rich cool-toned color with a flirty, flowy hemline for a look that’s fresh but still poised.

A teal and petrol green bridesmaid dress pairs beautifully with warm colors like moderate pinks, deep mustards, and chocolatey browns. Accessories of almost any metal can work well with these dimensional colors, but golds and bronzes really infuse the warmth that brings the look to life. These smooth colors offer a sophisticated take on the green bridesmaid dress.

Emerald or Hunter Green

For those who want to venture more vibrant, emerald and hunter green make great choices. These deep jewel-tone greens are flattering for all different skin tones, and darker shades have a nice slimming effect that complements every figure. A rich, deep green bridesmaid dress will add a luxurious ambiance to your bridal party. For example, Afarose’s asymmetric, one-shoulder, a-line, Flora dress in dark green is perfect for a romantic, graceful look.

Deeper shades suit winter weddings exceptionally well and can be paired with sleeves and heavy fabrics like velvet for a regal look. Emerald and hunter green are easy to coordinate with many color palettes, but they especially make lighter greens and shades of white pop. Hues like these work well with traditional-looking indoor venues: heavy dark wood and ornate detail combine to create a classy, traditional aesthetic.

Moss or Olive Green Bridal Party Dress

Earthy, rich colors like these are universally flattering for all skin tones.

A moss or olive green bridesmaid dress works year-round but serves especially nicely for summer and spring weddings. This family of tones suits almost any theme, too: use eucalyptus dresses with flowing chiffon sleeves to create a soft, bohemian look; meanwhile, a cowl neck olive-colored satin gown might serve for a more elegant but earthy vibe.

Afarose’s Marian pairs olive with lacy sleeves, a cold-shoulder, and cream accent for a refreshingly bold look that will turn heads at any wedding.

To really make these warmer, deep green hues stand out, accessorize with golds and naturally-shaped accessories. Lift this color up with lighter greens, soft colors, and whites for summer and spring, or bold warm colors like tangelo, sea blue, or mustard for an autumn wedding.
