What makes a winter wedding so romantic are the twinkling lights, snow-dusted outdoors, and deeply saturated hues. So why not incorporate these enchanting elements into your bridal party's wardrobe? Whether it's a sequin-encrusted gown or a billowing chiffon long-sleeve dress, there are plenty of winter bridesmaid dresses for a late December to March celebration.

A winter wedding's aesthetic is best communicated through an array of coolers colors. Many brides may prefer shades like slate grey or deep blue, while others might gravitate towards the rich jewel tones like an emerald green. But nothing gives off the glamour of a winter wonderland "I do" more than the glimmer of a sequin or beaded dress. Silver is a natural choice for these chillier months, while navy and black sequins or beading give off just as great wintertime vibes.

A sleeker silhouette may work best for your winter bridesmaid dresses. Think: Architectural floor-length gown with cutout off-the-shoulder sleeves or a structure mermaid (that's sequin-dusted, of course). And while you may think that a winter wedding requires long sleeves, that's definitely not the case. Fabric can be another important factor, and you may want to choose thicker materials such as tool, crepe, or tafetta. Ready to explore the enchanting world of winter bridesmaid dresses? Click through to see some of our favorite picks!
