But let us change your mind! Firstly, there’s a reason the LBD is your go-to, so why not make it your go-to when thinking about your girls? Black happens to be incredibly flattering, and it’s also super chic. A black tie wedding with an evening wear dress code? We love. Now, as we said, it may not be your initial choice, but we’re here with some inspiration that’s bound to get you thinking. So, don’t go anywhere as we take you on a journey into the realm of unconventional bridesmaid dresses that you really don’t want to miss. Of course, we’ve rounded up some of our favourite looks from real weddings. Let’s do this, shall we?

Black bridesmaid dresses from real weddings! 

Different Style Black Bridesmaid Dresses 

Having your girls in different style dresses is a real win these days. This is simply because not one style suits all! We must say though, choosing black as your colour is a real win if you’re looking to have everyone in the same look. It’s super flattering and we can guarantee you’ll find a style that every one of your bridesmaids loves. However, if you’re still going down the route of choosing a look to suit you, then don’t miss Kate & Kit’s real wedding. Her girls look simply stunning in their black dresses, all in slightly different looks. It works perfectly, especially alongside the white bouquets. 

Black Tie Bridesmaid Dress Inspiration 

As we mentioned, a black bridesmaid dress works perfectly for a black tie wedding. Honestly, if you fancy feeling like a celebrity, then we suggest you start looking for black dresses now. There are probably too many of our couples and weddings party's to mention who have pulled off this look, but we suggest you check out Jess & Alex’s beautiful day at Recommended venue Cripps Barn. Their day gives us all those luxurious yet filled with love vibes that we’re all about. 

Black Satin Bridesmaid Dresses 

Could this look be any more beautiful? We think not. In fact, you know we’re a lover of satin bridesmaid dresses regardless of the colour. But black satin… eurgh, hold us back! It will forever hold a special place in our wedding hearts. In fact, if you’re in need of style upon style, then don’t miss Chelsea & Matthew’s big day. With the bride in a Nadine Marabi suit beside her best girls in black satin, it is simply *chef's kiss*, and we need a moment to recover. 

Long Black Bridesmaid Dresses 

It’s a classic and a classic for a reason. A long bridesmaid dress is always an elegant and stylish look. Effortlessly chic, your girls won’t say no to something that looks good no matter what! Of course, if you’re opting for slightly different styled dresses, then ensuring the length is the same will give a more cohesive look. It’s also a great idea if your wedding is making its way into those winter months because quite frankly, no one is looking to freeze their tootsies off for those outdoor pictures! Amanda & Paul have got this one down to a T... alongside their disco ball decor and cheese toasties in the evening.

Sparkly black bridesmaid dresses

A lil’ bit of sparkle never hurts. If you’re looking to add a little touch of bling to your big day, then we suggest sparkling black bridesmaid dresses. It’s the perfect addition if you’re worried black may be a tad too dark, and you just fancy adding in something extra! Sasha & Tom’s New Year’s Eve wedding complete with bridesmaids in sequinned black dresses is just the perfect example. Simply add in some festive bouquets and you’re onto a winner… 

This will most definitely be a bridesmaid dress you can wear again...

Have we convinced you yet? Could black bridesmaid dresses be making their way into your wedding day? We hope so! But if you’re looking for more inspiration in regard to your girls, then don’t go anywhere. From white to satin to orange, we’ve got you covered.
