8 Times black bridesmaid dresses stunned

Traditionally, black had always been seen as a dark, morbid colour suitable for funerals and for more joyous occasions like weddings, brides have tended to opt for more feminine and bright colours like pink, gold or yellow. However things are changing; more and more brides are opting for black bridesmaid dresses and we love it. They are elegant, stylish and make for an incredible backdrop to the brides white gown. Here are a few examples of this great trend.
