How to Do the Metallic Wedding Trend Without Going Over the Top

We all know that weaving gorgeous metallics into your big day can be a fine line between seriously glam and a little over the top. A little glitter goes a long way, you guys - and nothing says pure sophistication quite like the beautiful gowns from Bari Jay. We're obsessed with the sleek silhouettes and silky fabrics - and when paired with a breathtaking locale like Brooklyn Botanic Garden it's absolute perfection.

What do you get when you take a jaw-droppingly beautiful wedding and add in gorgeous metallic bridesmaid gowns from Bari Jay? Happy besties... AND a day that is just as glamorous as you always wanted it to be. That's because Bari Jay knows everything there is to know about bridesmaid dresses (they've been doing it for 50 years, after all) and just how to create a sparkly gown your bridal party will love. We're all kinds of obsessed with the beautiful fabrics (like chiffon and lace), size options (hey there, 0 - 26W with petite and extra length available) and maternity dresses with stretch panels. And we're really loving the new floral sequins, because, well... they are awesome.

Perusing this gorgeous shoot from the likes of Gabrielle Hurwitz, Patina Events, Shutterfly and You Look Lovely Fine Art Photography (just to name a few) was not our hardest day at the office. And if you're suddenly picturing a bridal party decked in head to toe metallics, we say do it. From junior bridesmaid gowns to super cute flower girl options, Bari Jay has you totally covered in gowns that will add just the right amount of glitter to your celebration. Visit them now.
