Home décor and the fashion runways have become saturated with the shades that make up these two color families, and for good reason: They're basically neutrals, but still have the ability to pack a punch. That means you can use them in so many different, interesting ways in every aspect of your life, and especially at your wedding. Whether you favor slate, charcoal, or shimmering sterling, there are plenty of ways to apply this cool-toned color family to your big day, but our favorite is with your bridesmaids' dresses. Gray and silver are especially good color options for bridesmaids' dresses because they work for just about any occasion and flatter nearly everyone's skin tone. For a black-tie event, you can't go wrong something subtly sexy, like Dress the Population's silver sequin gown with a deep V-neckline or Reformation's silver silk "Siena" dress. For an outdoor event, something sweet and ethereal, like Joanna August's "Nikki" dress. The off-the-shoulder neckline and ruffle detail feel right for a garden setting. If classic is more your style, BHLDN's "Ginny" dress—with its shimmering appliqués and illusion neckline—is an ideal choice. Throwing a beachside celebration? Consider Twobirds' halter option, with a flowy skirt that was practically made to move with the breeze. What we love most about silver and gray bridesmaids' dresses is that they're ideal for a mismatched bridal party. It's easy to mix different colors from the two families, and you'll get a cohesive look with very little effort. Talk about a win-win.
