Sage green became the default bridesmaid colour because it is the one shade a group of eight people will all agree to wear. It sits between neutral and colour, which is exactly what a wedding party asks for and rarely gets. This edit treats it as a colour with a life after the aisle, sorted by length.
Sage Green Bridesmaid Dresses
Dresses You Can Rewear

Sage minis and short dresses
Short sage is the version that gets rewarn, which is the only real test of a bridesmaid dress. A muted green above the knee reads as a summer party dress the moment it leaves the wedding.
Sage midis
The midi is the diplomatic length for a mixed party, flattering across body types and formal enough for an evening reception. Sage keeps it from looking like a uniform even when everyone matches.

Sage gowns and maxis
Floor length is where sage does its best work, because the colour is soft enough that eight identical gowns do not overwhelm a photograph. It also sits beside almost every flower a florist will suggest.

Our honest take
Bridesmaid dressing fails when the colour is chosen from a screen, since sage swings from grey to olive depending on the fabric and the light. Get one sample in hand before committing a whole party. If you take one thing away, choose the length everyone can wear and let the shade do the matching.
