When it comes to planning a wedding, sure, the dress, cake, shoes and floral arrangements are all important. Not to mention finding the perfect venue that doesn’t cost as much as your mortgage. But what matters most is the people who will stand by your side. One beloved ritual is getting ready with your bridesmaids, doing your hair and makeup while sipping champagne—in matching pajamas, of course. Here, I’ve rounded up 20 of the best bridesmaids’ pajamas, including my luxe silk pick, Clementine Organic Silk Pajama Set ($349), favorite linen set, Piglet in Bed Linen Pajama Shorts Set ($139) and affordable winner, the Uniqlo AIRism Pajamas ($40). When making my selections, I prioritized button-downs and tops that would be easy to remove without messing up your hair and makeup, along with comfortable materials and, of course, style. Be ready to scoop up a pair for yourself, in addition to your girls.

To round up this list of bridesmaid pajama sets, I talked to Keane about features she would look for and recommend, anything she’d skip and the merits of choosing pajama sets over a robe. I also asked her to share brands her brides have purchased and loved. Considering her insight, I then looked for pajamas that fit the criteria and included several pairs I’ve worn over the past year and loved, too. My priorities were button-up shirts, camis and tanks that wouldn’t mess up your hair and makeup when it was time to get dressed, as well as materials (cotton, linen, silk and other soft, stretchy and/or breathable fabrics). Because if it’s not comfortable, why bother?

Pajamas or robes? “It ultimately boils down to personal preference and the vibe you want to create for your special day, but I lean more towards pajamas,” says Keane. Her reasoning? “You don’t need to wear anything underneath, which will prevent any bra marks when your bridal party puts their gowns on. Additionally, pajamas bring a relaxed and cozy atmosphere to the getting ready process, whereas robes feel slightly more formal.”

As for the materials, she advises avoiding polyester satin or poly-mix fabrics, which can trap sweat. Keane also skips fabrics that crease easily, unless you want a rustic look. Finally, you’ll want to opt for lower necklines, as higher cuts may ruin hair and makeup. Remember: button-downs and elastic are your friends.
