If you're stuck on a colour for your bridesmaid dresses now that you've chosen your wedding dress, allow us to introduce champagne, which, some might argue, is almost as delicious to wear as it is to drink. An increasingly popular choice and for very good reason, champagne sits on the cusp between gold and beige; a warm, often subtly glimmering shade that means champagne bridesmaid dresses effortlessly complement a range of wedding themes, from classic to chill to beachy vibes. We understand that choosing a colour for your bridesmaid dresses is possibly one of the most important decisions leading up to your wedding day. And whether you're planning a ceremony held in a church, a back garden, a barn or a beach, we can assure you that not only will champagne bridesmaid dresses work for any occasion, but they're a little more unusual than, say, burnt orange, burgundy, pale pink or sage green (as much as we love those more classic shades). When Jess Wright got married in 2021, she opted for champagne, with a range of bridesmaid dresses that were as chic as they were a little out-of-the-ordinary. The good news is that from high street to high end, there are plenty of champagne dresses to choose from. Satin adds a glamorous touch, chiffon lends an ethereal feel, while tulle can create a dreamy effect. The choice is yours... It's also important to note that you don't need to spend a fortune when it comes to shopping for the best bridesmaid dress. Many high street brands - think ASOS, Pretty Lavish and AllSaints - offer a range of champagne dresses without needing to break the bank. If you do want to go designer, however, you've got brands like Staud, Joseph and Rabanne, all of which have examples of champagne dresses that would make unforgettable bridesmaid attire.

It's not a good colour but a great colour for a bridesmaid dress. In all seriousness, if you're looking for something a little off the beaten track when it comes to the world of bridesmaids, you couldn't do better than champagne, which, like the drink itself, is the personification of chic. Hmm, that's a tricky one. 'I've been a bridesmaid four times and, every time, the bride has paid for my dress. I do, however, feel like the tide is turning, with more brides opting to give their friends the option of choosing (and paying for) their own looks,' says senior fashion news editor Natalie Hammond. 'Yes, these brides are essentially asking you to foot the bill, but you're getting to wear something that a) you actually like and b) that you'll 100% wear again. It makes sense.' Renee Washington, Grazia's Digital Fashion and Beauty Assistant, lives online. With a penchant for wispy lashes and streetwear, she writes about the worlds of fashion and beauty from the viewpoint of the modern fashion girlie.Is champagne a good bridesmaid dress colour?
