Whether you want an elegant satin maxi gown fit for a black-tie affair or something light and breezy for a beautiful beach ceremony - you’re sure to find a gorgeous blue bridesmaid dress your entire bridal party will love! 

First things first, while you may have narrowed down your colour choice to blue - being specific is everything for a theme done right! Do you envision your wedding colour palette to be luxe and dark or girly and light - full of soft and gentle pastels? 

To make your choice even easier, we’ve arranged our edit based on shade and hue to ensure you find the perfect fit for your big day! While we love blue bridesmaid dresses of all kinds, some of the most popular shades this season are, without a doubt, dusty blue, navy blue and sky blue! 
 

Dusty Blue Bridesmaid Dresses

Dusty blue is a soft, muted shade of blue with grey undertones, offering a timeless and elegant look. This colour's understated charm makes it a versatile choice for bridesmaid dresses, suitable for both rustic and sophisticated wedding themes. Dusty blue bridesmaid dresses add a subtle touch of colour that complements various settings and seasons, making them a gorgeous option for a cohesive and stylish bridal party.

Head to NA-KD and Recommended Supplier, Six Stories, for these beautiful satin dusty blue bridesmaid dresses. While they differ slightly in shade and tone, dusty blue is easily recognised for its muted and grey undertones - so whether you opt for a darker or lighter shade - dusty blue is a stunning choice. 

Navy Blue Bridesmaid Dresses

We've said it before, and we'll say it again, Navy has to be the most versatile shade of blue. It doesn't wash you out, it complements all colour schemes, and just like black, it’s super flattering. So whether you are having a cosy winter wedding or a summer shindig - midnight and Navy blue bridesmaid dresses could be the perfect colour choice for your bridesmaids.

We love these navy blue bridesmaid dresses from Club L London and Coast. Both are sleek, elegant and formfitting with a gorgeous statement neckline. Whether your preference is a halter or asymmetric neckline ( dramatic, billowing cape for effect), these styles would work perfectly for a mismatched bridesmaid dress theme
 

Pale/Light Blue Bridesmaid Dresses

Just because you choose light blue bridesmaid dresses it doesn't mean your bridal party will fade into the background. It's actually quite the opposite. Picture, clear blue skies, crisp white bouquets and an outdoor wedding. Sounds like pure bliss doesn't it? If you’re browsing for beautiful spring or summer bridesmaid dresses, pale and light tones of blue would always be our first choice. But what’s the difference between light/pale tones of blue, compared to blues that fit into the sky/baby blue category? Well, an easy way we differentiate between these soft blues is that light and pale tones tend to have muted undertones of grey and beige, while sky and baby blues tend to be more vibrant and cheerful - reminiscent of a gorgeous summer day! 

Shop at Quiz and Oasis for these lovely light blue bridesmaid dresses. Whether you want some simple, classic yet nonetheless beautiful, or feel like playing around with unique silhouettes - we’re a big fan of both styles. 
 

Royal Blue Bridesmaid Dresses

If you're looking for a vibrant shade of blue, royal blue bridesmaid dresses will definitely tick all your boxes. As the name suggests, it's elegant, and sophisticated and will look fit for a princess when teamed with an array of silver accessories. 

Royal blue works best when paired with high-shine fabrics for the ultimate effect, and these dresses from Club L London and Goddiva offer just that. The slinky, shiny materials work best for party season weddings, and we love royal blue bridesmaid dresses for rich and warm winter celebrations. 

Sky/Baby Blue Bridesmaid Dresses

Sky blue and baby blue are delicate, soothing shades reminiscent of clear summer skies and tranquil waters. These colours bring a cheerful and romantic vibe to any wedding, making them perfect for outdoor and beach ceremonies. Sky and baby blue bridesmaid dresses add a fresh, airy touch to your bridal party, creating a timeless and cohesive look that’s ideal for spring and summer celebrations.

Inspired by the charming cornflower plant, these bridesmaid dresses promise to add a pop of colour that stands out beautifully on your big day. If you can’t choose between beautiful clear skies and seas vs ethereal lavender field vibes - why choose when you can materialise the best of both with cornflower blue bridesmaid dresses
