Finding The Best Bachelorette Party Dresses for Brides-To-Be

In addition to the main wedding event - and the wedding dress that goes with it- brides-to-be often need a whole slew of dresses for the events leading up to the big day. We've shared dresses to wear to your engagement party. A few days ago, we created shared ideas for the best dresses for brides to wear to their bridal shower, and looks for the rehearsal dinner today, we're tackling the best bachelorette party dresses for brides-to-be.

What Should a Bride Wear For Her Bachelorette Party?

While there's no formal dress code for bachelorette parties, as you can see from the dresses and outfits we've picked above, in general, we think the bachelorette party attire is the perfect time to break out all the mini dresses that we usually don't recommend for wedding guest attire and bridesmaid dresses.

We love a little white dress for the bride-to-be, but that's far from being the only option. While we've highlighted mostly white bachelorette dresses, we also have shopping guides for pink dresses under 100, affordable green dresses, and light blue dresses, which could all be great choices as well.

 In general, it's the perfect chance to wear more daring styles, take fashion risks, and express your personal style. Shorter hemlines, flashy sequined dresses, embellishments,  and just anything that fits the theme of your style and the vibe of the party itself certainly won't be out of place at a bachelorette party.

Bachelorette parties are a fun time to celebrate the bride, let your hair down, and have your closest friends and bridesmaids out on the town for a little fun and bonding time. Whether you're going on a big bachelorette weekend full of events or a semi-low-key event at a local bar or restaurant, it's a nice chance to wear fun dresses, white strapless jumpsuits, and outfits.   If you're looking for white dresses in longer lengths, see our picks for more white dresses.

Attire Ideas for Themed Bachelorette Parties

Often, bachelorette parties will have a theme, and sometimes the invited guests will be asked to join in. If you're having a weekend getaway So for instance, we've seen bachelorette parties where the bride wears a white dress, and the guest is asked to wear black dresses or outfits to help the bride stand out.

We've also seen the opposite approach, where all the guests wear white and take on the town, challenging everyone they meet to figure out which one is the bride. We've heard of prom-themed bachelorette parties and bachelorette parties where everyone wears an old wedding dress borrowed from a relative or from a thrift store.  Here are just a few ideas based on some of the themes and bachelorette trip ideas we've seen in the past.

Styling a Bachelorette Outfit

Adding accessories to a bachelorette outfit can be a great time to wear some of the more flashy bridal accessories, earrings and clutches you'll see offered. Some things like a clutch, or even shoes and earrings can be worn again with your bridal shower outfits, and engagement party. Here's one idea for how to style a bachelorette look.

This is an old post, but we thought this look was ideal for a bride to wear because of that white background combined with silver and the silk and beading - it's a little bit elegant and a little bit flashy at the same time. I particularly like how the sleeve keeps the short hemline from being too over the top.
