Classic, elegant, flattering for those skin tones and not dates - consider the bridesmaid dresses gowns shown above at real weddings by Dessy and that we think you'll agree.

Burgundy (or possibly think of it as claret, merlot, or deep red) is really a shade that appears good on blondes, brunettes, girls with fair skin and freckles, and some women with darker skins.

Match it with lighter pinks inside your bouquets and greens plus you've got a really beautiful wedding theme happening. (Take a take a look at our Burgundy wedding theme ideas for inspiration).

Your little flower girls are likely to feel very grown-up wearing this shade and when you don't want dark colored, then match a Dessy flower girl dress yourself in white or cream having a burgundy sash. Very sophisticated for any little lady.

As for the bridesmaids - the toughest part will probably be choosing which style. We're loving the mismatched bridesmiad gowns this bride chose. (Bet her friends loved having individual styles too).

Sometimes it's difficult to decide whether your girls should wear long or short bridesmiad gowns. It depends on your style of a marriage day. If your marriage earlier within the day and it is hot, a short dress might be perfect. Short cocktail-style bridesmiad gowns also look sassy at evening weddings if you are having a buffet-style event as opposed to a formal sit-down dinner. The best thing to complete is take a look at plenty of different styles and get your girls the things they think.
