What is the role of a bridesmaid?
Planning a wedding requires a lot of effort and manpower. This is where your bridesmaids can lend a helping hand – from the wedding planning process right up to your actual wedding day.
Before the wedding
From guest lists to venue and wedding dresses, there is a long checklist that every bride has prior to the wedding day.
The role of a bridesmaid is especially crucial during this period. Being a bridesmaid is all about lending a helping hand or listening ear for the bride to vent her stress or worries.
Besides being a pillar of support, bridesmaids can also help you with your bridesmaid dress shopping! Not only does this help you to check off one of your to-dos, it is a great bonding session for you and your bridesmaids as well.
If you are holding a destination wedding, your bridesmaids can assist with the booking of guests’ accommodations or planning of travel itineraries for your relatives.
Pre-wedding ceremony
“Keep the bride calm and happy”, that is the main and most important responsibility of every bridesmaid right before the actual wedding ceremony. Whether it is telling a funny joke or keeping naggy relatives out of the way, bridesmaids should do anything they can to keep the bride from feeling the pre-wedding jitters.
Getting into a wedding dress can be a tough affair, with the ballooning fabrics and intricate buttons. As such, all hands need to be on deck in helping you, the bride, get into your wedding dress.
Finally, have an emergency kit. You never know when your wedding dress may rip at the hem or an accidental spillage of wine on your gown. Have a checklist of emergency items required, such as a sewing kit, stain removal or even some snacks in case the bride gets hungry.
Actual day wedding ceremony
Now that it is time for you to say, “I do”, your bridesmaids should ensure that everything is running on schedule. This also means minding the kids, ensuring that guests are sitting as per their assigned table arrangements, and helping out with the angpao (red packet) collections.
How many bridesmaids should I have?
As many as your heart desires! It is fairly common for brides to have three to four bridesmaids to help out with the wedding planning and actual day ceremony.
However, some couples do have a large bridesmaid team of up to 10! Ultimately, it boils down to the people whom you want to be present on your special day.
How to choose your bridesmaid dresses
Now that you have decided on your bridesmaid party, it is time to decide on appropriate outfits for your bridesmaids.
In picking out appropriate dresses for your bridesmaids, bear in mind that they are likely to gravitate towards a preferred style and colour. While you may not be able to cater to all your bridesmaids’ preferences, it would be good to select dresses that are flattering for your bridesmaids and ensure that it fits within your wedding theme.
Here are some guidelines to help you find the perfect bridesmaid dresses:
Set a reasonable budget
In Singapore, it is fairly common for the bride to bear the cost of the bridesmaid dresses for her bridal party.
If you are concerned about the financial burden, it might be helpful to have a budget in mind. Imagine if you decide to have a bridal party of 10, the total cost of your bridesmaid dresses can add up to a substantial amount!
Pick an appropriate shade of colour
After perusing all the trending wedding colours and deciding on your wedding theme, it is now time to decide on an appropriate bridesmaid dress colour.
While some brides may prefer their bridesmaids to be dressed in the exact same colour, others may prefer their bridesmaid to be dressed in varying shades of a similar colour. Regardless of your decision, it would be best to decide on a colour palette that complement your wedding theme.
Opt for flattering styles
Perhaps you have a bridesmaid that wants to show off her killer legs. Or a bridesmaid that is somewhat on the plus side. Given that everyone has a different body shape, this could mean that some bridesmaids may look good in long and flowy dresses while others may be more suited for an A-line dress.
Chat with your bridesmaids and ask them to be honest about their best and worst body feature. That way, you can decide on a dress style that is flattering on everyone! After all, you will want your bridal party to look good on your special day and in photos as well.
Choose dress fabrics wisely
When it comes to deciding on your bridesmaid dresses, the choice of fabric matters more than you think! Besides your wedding theme and venue, you will also need to consider your bridesmaids’ comfort in Singapore’s hot and humid weather.
As such, you may want to opt for lighter fabric such as chiffon while avoiding thick fabrics such as cotton. Sleeveless or off-shoulder dresses can also be a good option as well.
Think about bridesmaid dress accessories
While the main focus is definitely on your bridesmaid dresses, it is the minute details that add the perfect finishing touch to everyone’s look.
Think about bridal accessories such as comfortable shoes, complementary jewellery, or matching even nail colours. However, be careful about going overboard with bridal accessories. While you can allow your bridesmaids some say in deciding their preferred accessory, provide some guidelines so that you do not have any unpleasant surprises on your wedding day.
Do not wait until the last minute!
Whether you have decided on ordering bespoke dresses for your bridesmaids or purchase off-the-rack dresses, avoid waiting till the last minute to purchase your bridesmaid dresses.
Your bridesmaids may require some dress alterations or exchange their dress for a different size depending on the dress fit. Have your bridesmaid dresses ready a least one to two months before your actual wedding day to provide them with ample time for exchanges or alterations if necessary.
