The 25 Most Enchanting Fall Bridesmaid Dresses for Autumn

There's something so whimsical about autumn weddings: The leaves are changing colors, the weather's getting colder and there's a festive spirit leading up to the Holiday season. Autumn also brings a wide selection of fall bridesmaid dresses for your BFFs, from elegant satin dresses to romantic velvet gowns.

Whether you want to lean into classic fall shades, like burgundy, wine and terracotta, or opt for rich jewel tones, like emerald, amethyst and sapphire, the sky's the limit when it comes to the color palette of your bridal party's gowns. While dresses with sleeves tend to be popular in the fall, strapless gowns, plunging necklines and shorter hemlines are still on the table thanks to slightly warmer temps. Where fabric is concerned, silk, velvet and satin—as well as florals, embellishments and patterns—are also very on theme for the season.
