Your girls definitely don't want sweat marks on their gowns. Materials like satin, chiffon, linen and cotton are ideal for beach weddings.

Avoid stiff fabrics, and stay away from extremely delicate materials and heavy beading.

3. Length of the Dresses

What is the best length for the bridesmaid dresses? Well, when it comes to the length of the dresses, shorter dresses are always a better choice. In that way, you'll avoid the hemline from getting dragged in the sand. You can also opt for asymmetrical dresses or tea-length dresses.
