20 Stylish And Affordable Bridesmaid Dresses That Will Look Good On Everyone In The Bridal Party

Getting engaged is super exciting, but preparing for a wedding can actually be pretty stressful. Not only are weddings expensive, they also take a lot of planning.

After getting that gorgeous engagement ring , most brides jump right into planning their dream wedding. And the list of things to plan is extensive. In addition to all the parties — the engagement party, the bridal shower, the bachelor/bachelorette parties, and the wedding itself — there are a lot of other things to take into consideration.

Brides and grooms have to choose a wedding venue, caterers, music (band or DJ?!), a color scheme, a cake, and more. And in traditional weddings, brides have to choose a wedding gown, and grooms have to choose a tuxedo.

Finally, brides and grooms must select what the members of their bridal party will wear. Typically, men choose suits or tuxedos for their groomsmen, and brides choose dresses for their bridesmaids .

Unfortunately, many bridesmaid dresses are very expensive. It can be a lot to ask your bridesmaids to shell out a bunch of money to buy dresses for your wedding — so unless you're planning to buy all the dresses yourself, it's much more considerate to pick a more affordable dress.

And just because they're affordable doesn't mean you have to sacrifice style! Check out these 20 beautiful bridesmaid dresses that won't break the bank.
