Choosing your bridesmaid dress colors is one of those magical moments in wedding planning—it sets the tone for your whole celebration. Whether you’re leaning soft and romantic or rich and bold, your color palette says so much about your style as a couple.
Need a little inspo? We’ve pulled some of our favorite real-wedding looks right from The Bridge Lemont to help you see just how stunning these shades look in action—on the dance floor, in golden hour portraits, and down the aisle.
Classic Black
Chic. Clean. Timeless. There’s a reason all-black bridal parties are trending hard. It’s minimal, elegant, and lets everything else—your bouquet, your dress, your love—shine. This look plays especially well with The Bridge’s more industrial details.

Champagne & Taupe
Neutrals, but elevated. Mixing shades of champagne, sand, and taupe brings soft sophistication to your day. This look is always in style, and gives your bridal party that effortless glow in every lighting—from candlelit dinner to golden hour portraits.

Lavender/Lilac
Soft, sweet, and oh-so-pretty. This cool-toned pastel is perfect for spring weddings. It pairs beautifully with gray or navy suits and pops of pink in your bouquets. Plus, it brings a fresh and modern feel to your photos without being too bold.

Dusty Rose
Warm, flattering, and timeless. This muted rose tone is a beautiful blend of classic and modern. It pairs effortlessly with blush florals and soft greenery, making it perfect for late summer or fall weddings.

Soft Pastel Mix
Like a watercolor painting come to life. We love when couples lean into the full pastel palette—think lavender, blush, mint, powder blue, and pale yellow. It’s whimsical, romantic, and totally unforgettable. This look is all about celebrating personality and color.

Rust
Warm, rich, and romantic. This tone feels earthy yet elevated, and it photographs beautifully against the exposed brick and wood accents at The Bridge. Whether you go all one shade or mix satin textures, rust gives fall weddings a glow you’ll obsess over forever.

Deep Red Velvet
The ultimate winter wedding moment. This look is equal parts cozy and luxe. We love seeing dark red velvet gowns against our white walls and wooden doors—it’s festive without being theme-y, and timeless without being expected.

Soft Blue
Airy and romantic. This is a go-to for spring or summer weddings, and it’s especially dreamy inside our bright ceremony space. Paired with pastel bouquets or pops of peach, soft blue adds a delicate, elegant feel to your big day.
