12 Best Bridesmaid Dresses That Are Cute and Affordable

All products featured on Glamour are independently selected by our editors. However, we may receive compensation from retailers and/or from purchases of products through these links.
When it comes time to find the best bridesmaid dresses, there are tons of boxes to check: Your pick needs to complement the bride, look great on a range of body types, and match the moodboard. But you also have to find a dress style that your party actually likes and—perhaps most importantly—doesn’t cost an arm and a leg. (You don’t need us to tell you, but we’ll drive it home: Weddings are expensive, and not just for the folks getting married.)
Goldilocks bridesmaid dresses do exist; you just need to know where to look. To give you one less thing to worry about, whether you’re a bride or a member of the wedding party, our editors pulled together all of our favorite brands into one handy guide. These are the best places to find affordable bridesmaid dresses—and wedding-guest dresses, for that matter—some of which are as little as $40. We promise that you’ll even find a way to wear (at least some of) them once the ceremony’s over.
