If you aren’t sure if the look is for you, but have definitely been considering it, keep reading! I’ll tell you a little bit about the history of ivory bridesmaid dresses, how they got back into the wedding limelight, and some of the greatest concerns that brides have when they’re debating to go the ivory route or not.īen Saefke Photography The History of Ivory Bridesmaid Dressesīelieve it or not, bridesmaids once held a bigger role than just planning epic bachelorette parties and helping brides to get dressed on the big day - they helped to ward off evil spirits!

Obviously, that vision was completely wrong, because ivory bridal parties have become a huge wedding trend and it's pretty dang stunning!
