What to Look for in a Champagne Bridal Party Dress

Champagne is a beautiful neutral hue to outfit your bridal party in. Slightly warmer and richer in tone than other neutrals like beige and tan, champagne hues feel particularly fitting for special occasions. When it comes to shopping for your bridal party dresses, it's important to know that there are many different shades of champagne. While some champagne dresses may have pinky undertones, others may read more pale yellow or gold. Then there's the fabric to take into consideration. For example, champagne dresses in lustrous satin and silk feel especially appropriate for formal and black-tie dress codes while silhouettes in lightweight, matte chiffon are perfect for spring and summer nuptials. And when it comes to styling your bridal party dress, the good news is that champagne goes with everything from classic, nude slingbacks to metallic, strappy sandals.
