These celebrity bridesmaids have really set the bar high with their glamorous looks
After bringing you the most iconic celebrity wedding dresses, celebrity engagement rings and our favourite celebrity weddings from the last 25 years, you’d probably think we’d be done with the celebrity wedding content right? Wrong!
The team here at Hitched HQ can’t get enough of celebrity wedding gossip, and we know how much you all love it too, which is why we’ve rounded up the best celebrity bridesmaids.
From ridiculously famous flower girls and celebrity attendants in white bridesmaid dresses, to a bridesmaid crew *full* of famous faces and some celeb bridesmaids we almost forgot about.
Here are our favourite celebrity bridesmaids - how many of these famous looks did you remember?
14 Bridesmaid Dresses Worn by Celebrities
1. Mrs Hinch & Shana Swash
Stacey Solomon’s wedding to Joe Swash was a botanical themed dream from top to bottom - and their choice of bridesmaid dresses were no exception. As well as having exquisite taste in bridesmaid attire, Loose Woman Stacey picked herself an enviable wedding crew.
Stacey had celebrity influencer Sophie Hinchcliffe (aka Mrs Hinch) and ex-EastEnders star Shana Swash - also Joe’s sister - as two of her eight bridesmaids. Along with these famous faces, Stacey also had Joe’s other sister Caisie, her own sister Jemma, and four other friends by her side on the big day.
The maids wore gorgeous green bridesmaid dresses to complement the botanical wedding theme.
2. Drew Barrymore
Just when we thought we couldn’t love Drew Barrymore any more than we already did, she was assigned the role of flower girl for (the hilarious) Ross Matthew’s wedding to his partner Dr Wellinthon Garcia.
The Ru Paul’s Drag Race judge and his partner showcased exquisite taste in their Mexican beachside wedding this May, and even better taste in their choice of wedding party members. We're just wondering what she got as her flower girl gift...
3. Nicky Hilton
Why have one famous bridesmaid at your wedding when you can have two? In true Paris Hilton style, the hotel heiress had a wedding party that was just as over-the-top and fabulous as the rest of her three-part wedding weekend.
Her famous sister Nicky Hilton and cousin Farrah Aldjufrie (daughter of RHOBH star Kyle Richards) were part of Paris’s huge I do crew, along with some of the lesser known family members including Kim Richard’s daughters Brooke Wierderhorn and Whitney Davis.

4. Georgia Kousoulou
TOWIE cast member Georgia Kousoulou - who recently got engaged to partner Tommy Mallett - was an absolute vision of a bridesmaid at her friend Sharon’s wedding in late 2019.
She and her fellow bridesmaids wore gorgeous champagne coloured satin bridesmaid dresses with elegant bateau necklines. Could this look be a sign of things to come as she plans her own wedding to Tommy this year? We’ll keep our eyes peeled…
5. Jess Wright
From one TOWIE star to another, Jess Wright, who rose to fame on the show alongside her brother Mark, was a bridesmaid at his wedding to Michelle Keegan. The pair got married at Hengrave Hall in 2015 and Michelle had Mark’s sisters Jess and Natalya as bridesmaids, along with his step-sister Nicola, her best friend Becky and her three cousins Lauren, Katy and Gemma.

6. Michelle Keegan
Six years later, it was the turn of Mark’s sister Jess to walk down the aisle. Jess married partner William Lee-Kemp in a stunning ceremony in Palma, Majorca. Amongst her 12 bridesmaids (yes, you read that right!) was her brother’s wife and famous actress Michelle Keegan.
The wedding was elegant and beautiful and the bridesmaid dresses were no exception. All bridesmaids and close female family members wore champagne hues which perfectly matched the stone-washed venue.
7. Taylor Swift
Our favourite country-singer-turned-pop-sensation Taylor Swift was a bridesmaid to her best friend Britany Maack in February 2016 and wore a beautifully embellished Reem Acra gown, looking utterly incredible in the process – as did the bride.
Taylor gifted her BFF with an 11-minute long wedding speech, which, of course, was AMAZING and full of sentimental words including: “My favourite accomplishment of my entire life is that everything in my life has changed except for me and Britany”. Cue the tears!

8. Selena Gomez
One of the most gorgeous bridesmaids we’ve ever seen - it’s no surprise that Selena Gomes was a vision in black as a bridesmaid for one of her friend’s weddings. Selena wore an off-the-shoulder black bridesmaid dress which had a sultry leg slit and paired the look with classic black courts. The neutral bouquet was a stark contrast to the black dress code - this is a seriously stylish wedding party right?
9. Serena Williams
Serena Williams was a bridesmaid for fellow tennis pro Caroline Wozniacki, showing her support for her both on and off the court. Serena and the other bridesmaids wore beautiful teal bridesmaid dresses at Caroline’s wedding to NBA player David Lee.

10. Pippa Middleton
Who could forget the momentous royal wedding frenzy that gripped the whole country - and not just because of The Duchess of Cambridge’s stunning long sleeved wedding dress.
Kate’s sister Pippa almost broke the internet as she sashayed down the aisle behind the bride in a fitted white bridesmaid dress. It’s safe to say it wasn’t the most conventional royal bridesmaid look - but we’re fans over here. You go Pippa!

11. Tiffany Watson
Made in Chelsea star Tiff Watson was a bridesmaid for sister and Made in Chelsea ex-pat Lucy Watson at her wedding to James Dunmore. Lucy and James tied the knot in Greece in September 2021.
Tiff was the only famous face in Lucy’s wedding party and she and the other three bridesmaids donned pastel pink bridesmaid dresses in a range of different silhouettes. Rather than big bridesmaid bouquets, each of the girls held a single white rose - very chic.
12. Lucy Watson
Just a mere two years later, Lucy repaid the bridesmaid favour to younger sister Tiffany at her wedding to partner Cameron McGeehan. Unlike Lucy, Tiff had a much bigger set of bridesmaids and shared her reasons to her Instagram followers, penning: “When I told people I was having eight bridesmaids they were shocked But how could I not, when these 8 girls mean so much to me in their own way ❤️”
She continued: "As @cameronmcgeehan said in his speech “you are the product of the people you surround yourself with” and I couldn’t agree more. Each one of these girls has been there for me through different moments of my life and I feel so incredibly lucky that they are all a part of my life.
“So if you are doubting or worrying about your ‘number’ of bridesmaids I say just go for it. I have memories to last for a lifetime with these girls. The night before, the morning of, each one making me laugh, calming my nerves and helping me with anything and everything throughout the day. I love you girls! You looked absolutely incredible and were such an important part of the day. 🌸”
Along with Lucy were a couple other famous faces including Olivia Bentley who is still on Made in Chelsea with Tiff, and Nicola Hughes who is no longer part of the show.
13. Vanesa Hudgens
All of our High School Musical dreams came true when Vanessa Hudgens was assigned to be a bridesmaid for co-star and fellow actress Ashley Tisdale. Though the pair play frenemies in the much-loved Disney films, the reality of their friendship is a much happier story.
14. Rihanna
Show us a cooler bridesmaid - we challenge you! No one can make being a bridesmaid look as cool as Rihanna does here. Pairing the picture with the hashtag #420wedding, Rihanna rocked the beach bridesmaid look along with a gorgeous lilac bridesmaid dress and cream rose bouquet. We bet that was a party to remember…
