Bridesmaids with Cardigans

by Mary on January 27, 2011

Right now I’m loving the idea of bridesmaids with cardigans. Depending on the weather in Memphis it could be cool enough for cardigans at our wedding. Or it could not. It could really go either way, most likely leaning toward the too hot side. But it’s an idea that I currently adore.

I like the idea of purple dresses with cardigans over them:

Or black dresses with various gray cardigans:

I really, really LOVE this one:

I’ve been thinking about letting my bridesmaid pick a dress on their own in any style but a certain color palette. I was thinking grey because it would be something they could re-wear often, but wasn’t sure how to tie it in with a more colofrul wedding. Purple cardigans + grey dresses = adorable.

I’m a huge fan of sweaters and cardigans and all things layers, so this is right up my alley.

Cute right?

Emo clothes are usually worn in layers with cardigans and v-neck jumpers stretched tightly over undershirts.

I like this look for everyday, but for wedding it is too informal, looks sloppy.
Beaded shrug or shawl is nicer.

Well, we aren’t planning a formal wedding so I think it’s very fitting. I love it! Thanks for your comment! :)

I love this idea as well. I cant pick between colors for my wedding so i really want to have each of my BM (4) wear their favorite color.. but i dont want it to look like we are all a bunch of skittles! so i thought.. hmm.. a neutral color BM dress with cardigans, shoes, and bouquets in different colors! ive been trying to figure out a way to still make it look formal.. maybe if i find some cost effective cardigans that come in different colors so they all look the same? I just LOVE this idea!
