Consider Adding a Junior Bridesmaid

Having a Junior Bridesmaid is going to add to the fun of your big day. It's a great way to help a young lady start her journey into womanhood. It will also help you build a nurturing relationship and be a great example of love.A Junior Bridesmaid is very different from a traditional flower girl. Most are typically between the ages of 8-12, or what you might consider the tween years. She walks down the aisle with the other maids wearing a dress that's perhaps not as sophisticated as the other dresses. She can be involved in planning the shower and lend a hand with other prewedding tasks. She'll probably get a kick out of being treated like a big kid.

Junior Bridesmaid Wear

The best bridesmaid dress styles look good on ladies of all ages -- hopefully you'll be able to find one that's appropriate for everyone. If the magicdress.co.uk bridesmaid dresses are on the sexy side, consider having a seamstress create a more youthful version. Big girl dresses are cut for big girl bodies. You would be better off allowing her to get a dress from a department store than trying to alter a bridesmaid dress. Otherwise, check out stores that carry bat mitzvah party, sweet sixteen, or QuinceaneraDresses.

If there's one thing your Junior Bridesmaid doesn't want it's to look like a "baby", so flower girl dresses are definitely out. Believe it or not this may be the first time this young lady has worn such dressy attire. For example, this might be the first time she has worn dress shoes and you may need to teach her how to scuff the bottoms . As silly as it seems, you may even need to show her how a lady sits in a nice outfit.

Her Duties in Detail

1. While junior bridesmaids are not expected to give showers, they should plan to attend and help out with cleaning up, favormaking, and more.
2. At bride's request, go wedding gown shopping and give input (especially if the junior bridesmaid is a sister or daughter).
3. Walk down the aisle in the procession, and stand at the altar/stage along with the other attendants.
4. Attend the ceremony rehearsal and rehearsal dinner. Help out the ushers by seating guests.

The Hottest Bridesmaid Dress Color for 2013

Bright and Bold

Pretty candy and pastel colors have always been very popular choices for bridesmaids. From frothy fresh greens, sweet shades of pink to luscious lemons and lovely lilacs, think sherbet shades for a spring wedding. This sweet maize colored dress will certainly give you day a golden glow! The trick is to play up your bridesmaids' best features and work with the colors which suit them. If you want to take the brights theme a step further, then step out in color contrasting shoes. Try green shoes with a yellow dress, turquoise with hot pink... and so on.

Ombre bridesmaid dresses

Ombre

Fancy putting your bridesmaids in pink? To work the ombre theme, choose dresses in shades from the deepest dark burgundy all the way up to a classic rose pink... and whatever you fancy in between. Ombre is set to be a real trend in 2013. It's not exactly a color, more a graduated series of shades of the same color and it's a perfect idea for a wedding theme too.

Blue

The colour of the sky and the sea, blue is big this year. All shades of blue from light azure to darker ultramarine, turquoise, teal and aqua, all feature on bridesmaid dresses for 2013.

Metallic

If you simply can't choose a colour for your maids, a metallic dress in simple shades of graphite, silver, bronze or soft gold could be the ideal option.

For all those color, search LuckBridal Bridesmaid Dresses online.

2013 Bridesmaid Dress Trends

Gone are the days of ill-fitting pastel dresses and where-does-this-go satin sashes; bridesmaids are about to shine. 2013 Bridal Market wasn't a bold gown trend or something Vera Wang did (like black wedding dresses) - but instead, a recurring theme in bridesmaid dresses. And that theme is that your maids are about to steal the show. From peplums to illusion necklines, popular wedding gown details are making their way to bridesmaids. Sorry, brides!

Peplum & Lace
The peplum is a hot trend this year in women's fashion, so it is a natural progression to find it in bridesmaid's dresses as well. Hugely popular for bridal gowns this spring, pretty peplums add both oomph and poise to your bridesmaid dresses. Asymmetric skirts will add extra interest to a simple dress. Ruffles and pleats in delicate chiffon will add a soft touch and feminine look to your dress.

Convertible Dress


Convertible Dress
Convertible dress is still a very popular option in the 2013 bridesmaid dress trends. Personally I love this option. Each of your bridesmaids are unique and they rarely ever agree on the same dress. So to get the best of all possible worlds, the convertible dress is it!  Pick the color, length, and in some cases styling and the rest is a wrap – literally.

Illusion Neckline and Lace
Wondering what an illusion neckline is? You are probably not alone. An illusion neckline is a sheer piece of fabric that lays over a gown giving the appearance of a high neckline but with a hint of skin showing through. Throughout 2012 and 2013 bridal gowns are being made with illusion necklines and, to my delight, are now showing up in bridesmaid gowns. Lace dresses are another trend for 2013 in bridesmaid dresses. Lace is a fantastic option for a vintage inspired wedding, but will fit just as well into a contemporary celebration. Small lace elements or a total lace dress, 2013 bridesmaid dress tends take a vintage element and make it modern. You will love the pairing of a lace bridesmaid dress with an illusion neckline! Dramatic, sexy and very popular for Spring, illusion necklines and lace add intrigue to these new looks for bridesmaids.

One-shoulder
Being the key element of Vera Wang's bridesmaid dress collection, the one-shoulder trend is popping up all over the bridesmaid scene. One-shoulder styles have been shown en masse for wedding dresses, but only recently have they hit it big in bridesmaids. Short, long, in all shades of the rainbow, if this style appeals to you, you will have plenty to select from.

If you have yet to discover UK-based e-retailer ASOS, you're in for a treat! ASOS has thousands of party and evening dresses perfect for bridesmaids, especially if you dare to let your ladies mix and match.
