Celebrity Bridesmaids

Celebrity brides get all the attention, but what about celebrity bridesmaids? Sometimes the star takes center stage, even if she doesn’t mean to, as was the case with bridesmaid Jessica Biel’s gorgeous two-piece ensemble at a friend’s wedding in Bronxsville, New York, in May 2011.

Each maid wore a different style and color dress, while Jessica’s cowl neck silk top and floral embroidered skirt stole the show with its intricate, subtle design and hues. We’re loving her dark brown locks, too; such pretty contrast with the dress.

This isn’t the first time Jessica Biel walked the aisle as a maid. She was a bridemaid for friend and 7th Heaven co-star Beverly Mitchell’s wedding in Italy in 2008. The girls in the wedding party wore matching brown gowns by the Melissa Sweet Vineyard collection.

Many stars have played the supporting role to the bride, such as Jessica Alba, Tory Spelling, Kate Bosworth and Jennifer Garner. Check out this album of celebrity bridesmaids by Celebrity Bride Guide.

Even the stars get stuck in frocks that we would never wear in public again. . .

If single, these ladies will one day be celebrity brides.
