You need to think about the style of the dress and the colour. Are they going to have a strapless dress, fishtail, halter-neck? The choices are endless! If you can’t make your mind up, and want them all to find a style that complements their bodies, have you considered a wrap dress? You can fashion these in various ways to keep everyone happy. Now, the colour! Colour palettes that typically work well for summer weddings are pale tones like a blush pink, baby blue or mint green; whereas, winter lends itself well to mulberry red, moss green and plum hues embracing the season.
