This Trendy Instagram Brand Is Launching Even More Bridesmaid and Bachelorette Gear
Birdy Grey, the brand behind the Instagram-ready bridal party, has expanded its offerings even further into the bachelorette party and bridesmaid attire space—and we're here for it. "Celebrating friendships is at the heart of what we do, and expanding our assortment of bridal shower and bachelorette party goods felt like a natural progression," Birdy Grey co-founder and CEO Grace Lee tells The Knot. "We call this category 'the fun stuff.' They're meant to make all the fun events of being a bridesmaid (proposals, bridal showers, bachelorettes) extra memorable."
The brand's wide range of goods and wearables are perfect for (appropriately distanced) bachelorette parties, day-of getting ready photos and safe get-togethers. And much like its ethos of affordable bridesmaids dresses, its entire collection of bridesmaid and bachelorette gear is available at a price point that won't burden your wedding budget: everything is priced under $50, with bridesmaid pajama sets offered at $39, swimsuits for $24 and masks for $10.
"'Getting ready' photos in the bridal suite are a total thing," says Lee. "We wanted to create beautiful-yet-affordable pieces for everyone to wear when capturing the moment… [Plus, these pieces] make the perfect gift that your bridesmaids can enjoy long after the wedding."
Other initiatives Birdy Grey has undertaken recently include a social shopping tool called "Bridal Studio," where bridal parties can shop together virtually, along with virtual bachelorette events. "It's worth noting that COVID has unlocked new and interesting ways that we, as a brand, engage with our customers," Lee says. "It's been remarkable to watch our social community band together and comfort on each other during this stressful time."
