Bridesmaids and best men make the wedding even greater and fun
All About Bridesmaids
In this article, while wedding preparations, we talked about the bridesmaids who are at every stage behind the bride and run every business of her.
We are accustomed to seeing foreigners coming from abroad for their wedding bridesmaid in the wedding in Turkey have recently started to be seen and loved. After reading this article, all questions in the mind about bridesmaids will find answers!
What is Bridesmaid?
Bridesmaid means her assistant, who is with the bride during the wedding preparations, who supports her at every stage from the selection of the wedding dress to the wedding day. Its history goes back to ancient times until the Ancient Roman period. The bridesmaid event you will understand is not really a new one.
"How many bridesmaids do you have at the wedding?" is another question that make us confusion. However, there is no definitive answer to this. Even if there are usually 5-10, some brides can have over 10 bridesmaids. Brides choose them from their closest friends and relatives.
Bridesmaids have some duties that they are responsible for helping the bride, as well as organizing a hen party and buying dresses. However, these duties, which are among the bridesmaid rules abroad, are not applied to in Turkey. At Turkey weddings, they often help the bride only on the wedding day.
How to Wear Bridesmaids?
Bridesmaid dresses become the same color and pattern. Evening dresses models are mostly preferred in same tonality such as pink, blue, purple and lilac. The subject that you should be careful about when choosing a dress is that the designs won’t be precluded the wedding dress.
In the bridesmaid dresses in recent years, the same evening dress models were changed to be used only in the same color, even in hue of a color, regardless of the model.
In our country, this situation is slightly different. In recent wedding in Turkey it is not yet a preferred new tradition is that bridesmaids often the only wear bracelet to separate the other guests at the wedding.
However, in order to fully practice the tradition lately, some brides may ask their bridesmaids to choose dresses in the same color or shades.
"Why bridesmaids wear the same color?" The answer to the question will surprise you very much. During the Ancient Roman period when bridesmaids first appeared, there would be 10 bridesmaids and 10 groomsmen. They were dressed exactly like the bride and groom. The reason for this was to confuse the evil spirits and prevent against the evil eye. Of course, over the years, this belief was replaced only by bridesmaids and groomsmen. After all, on these special occasions, the bride and groom should draw attention.
What is Bridesmaid Bracelet?
The bridesmaid bracelet is the corsage bracelets that they wear at the wedding. All bridesmaids wear the same bracelet. As they do not wear the same clothes at the weddings in our country, this bridesmaid they wear from other guests is distinguished with their bracelets. Corsage bracelets are generally preferred in hue of bridesmaid dresses. For example, if the bridesmaids wear purple dresses, they wear a purple bracelet.
Bridesmaid Bracelet Models
This accessory, which is one of the most important bridesmaid materials, has different models such as floral and beaded. We recommend you to be careful to match the dresses when choosing the bracelet. For example, if you chose a powder-colored romantic dress for your bridesmaids at the wedding, you can choose an elegant pink floral and pearl bracelet. If you want the bridesmaid bracelet to be different, you can use dried flowers and feather details. This unusual model will create very elegant images while decorating the bridesmaids' wrists. You can also take a look at the elegant models, where green leaves abound instead of just using flowers on the bracelets. If you chose dresses in powder shades, you can create nice looks by using white and pink flowers. Instead of pink, you can use a burgundy rose and create a more bohemian atmosphere.
Bridesmaid Crowns Decorating Hair Dresses
After the bridesmaid bracelet, the most used accessor for the maid of honor is the crown. Just like the bracelets, all bridesmaids use the same model crown. However, the crown is less important than bracelet. While the bracelet is part of the dress, the crowns are just an accessory that shapes the hairstyle. While it is generally used in weddings and bachelorette abroad, it is preferred in the henna and bachelorette party.
Bridesmaid Crown Models
Bridesmaid crowns have different models such as floral, stony, and beaded. Henna, crowns, which are used frequently in henna, generally consist of red tulle and small flowers. I suggest you consider the wedding venue when choosing a crown for your bridesmaids. For example, if you are going to have a wedding in a country garden, bridesmaid flowers with flowers will be a great choice. You should keep in mind that the stony crowns look very stylish on the simple maid of honor's dresses. If you have chosen a flat dress for your bridesmaids, we recommend you to take a look at the stone models. There are also small crowns with tiny metal flower motif among the most elegant crown models. If you have chosen especially a bridesmaid dress in a helenistic style, you can take a look at the metal crowns with elegant floral and leaf motifs.
Bridesmaid Dressing Gown
When preparing for the wedding morning, they usually wear dressing gowns that replace vanity robes. These dressing gowns are called bridesmaid dressing gowns. Behind the bridal dressing gown, while writing articles such as 'Bride' , 'MRS X 'Bridesmaid’, 'Bride's Squad' or the name of the bridesmaid are written in the bridesmaid dressing gown. While the bridal dressing gown is white, bridesmaid dressing gowns are usually in pink, gray, blue and lilac colors. As fabric, viscose, satin or cotton fabrics are generally used. You can capture colorful frames with your bridesmaids by taking photos with these dressing gowns during wedding preparations.

Although not very popular, some of them wear veils with the bride at bachelor nights. These veils are called the bridesmaid veil. While the bride's veil is white, the bridesmaid veils are in colors such as red, blue, purple and pink. In our country, these veils are mostly used in henna nights.
Bridesmaid Shawl
If you are thinking of having a winter wedding, you don't want your unique bridesmaids to cold. Then you can adjust the bridesmaid shawl for them. Bridesmaid shawls are usually made of warm woolen fabrics or artificial furs. I must say that the fur-shaped shawls look very stylish, but if you have a limited budget, you can also customize a plain shawl by buying a classic shawl and processing the initials of bridesmaids on the edge.
Bridesmaid Flower
Bridesmaids of the bride also carry bouquets at weddings abroad. These bridesmaids’ bouquets are simpler than the bride's. In such cases, brides prefer slightly larger or ribbon tied models than bridesmaids to separate the bridal bouquet.
Bridesmaid Gifts
According to tradition, brides give their bridesmaids small gifts while offering this task. These gifts are usually small things like customized necklaces, keychains and cups. You can also prepare such a box for bridesmaids. You can put a glass with the name of the bridesmaid, a necklace with the initial and the bridesmaid dressing gown inside. Of course, "Would you be my bridesmaid?" You should not skip a small note paper that says. When you receive this gift, you can be sure that the bridesmaid will be very happy.
