Young Women Helpers. Bridesmaids are traditionally unmarried young women who help make the wedding day special. They wear matching dresses and are part of the bride's official party alongside her.
Matching Outfits. All the bridesmaids wear the same style dress, usually chosen by the bride. This creates a beautiful, coordinated look in wedding photos and shows they are part of the bride's special team.
