As we all know, bridal party dresses come in a multitude of colors: light greys, teals, pinks, blues, and so much more. But there's something about a deep, rich hue that has a way of capturing our attention—like a daring burgundy color. A few of our favorite places to shop burgundy bridesmaid dresses include Dear Cleo, Revelry, Azazie, and REVOLVE.

Burgundy is a spectacular shade for a fall or winter wedding, and a vivid color that will make a stunning statement as your bridal party walks down the aisle. It also works for spring and summer nuptials—a gorgeous shade that would look picturesque against a summer sunset or springtime greenery. And whether your bridal aesthetic is chic or whimsical, there is a burgundy-hued bridal party dress that will complement your style and look great on your favorite gal pals. The undeniably luxurious tone is especially stunning for black-tie affairs as it instantly elevates the bridal party's entire look.

Ahead, take a look at the best burgundy bridal party dresses your wedding party will surely love.

What to Look for in Burgundy Bridesmaid Dresses

So, you're set on burgundy bridesmaid dresses—amazing choice! Regardless of the color, when it comes to selecting the attire for your crew, it all comes down to two important aspects: comfort and style.

We're big believers that when you're comfortable in your outfit, you are your best and most confident self. Your bridesmaids deserve it—they'll also be up at the alter with you after all! We recommend having all of your members try on varying styles, silhouettes, and fabrics, so they'll be able to select the one that makes them look and feel like a million bucks. You may want to consider having each of your bridal party members choose their own style or silhouette but in the same burgundy hue to keep the look cohesive.

Similarly, use your creativity to imagine how you'll translate your wedding style and aesthetic into your bridal party's look. For instance, while some brides may decide to have each member choose their own silhouette, others may opt for a palette of mismatched colors that incorporates the burgundy hue. We love rich jewel tones such as emerald green, gold, plum, or ruby red blended with burgundy. Or, go for bold jewelry, statement shoes, or varying hairstyles. No matter what look you and your squad ultimately choose, opt for the one that aligns with your wedding's unique style.

FAQ
  • Are burgundy bridal party dresses appropriate for all seasons?

    What you should look out for when shopping for a specific season is the dress fabric. Thicker fabrics (think velvet) work well for winter weddings, while dresses with light and airy fabrics work best for summer affairs.

  • What shoe colors pair well with burgundy bridal party dresses?

    Shoes in neutral tones like beige, black, silver, and gold pair beautifully with burgundy bridal party dresses.

  • Who buys the bridal party dresses?

    Typically, the bridal party is expected to cover the cost of their own dresses.
