The Dress Is White...Or Is It?


Here comes the bride, all dressed in white…..or not.  The modern bride is smart, traditional, daring, adventurous, exciting, full of life, and most of all she is not yesterday’s bride.  She is no longer limited to the traditional “white” wedding gown and as in every aspect of the wedding, she now has options, options, and options.

Choosing a colored wedding dress is not easy as you think. Your traditionalists may raise a brow or two so if the majority of your guests are conservative you may want to think twice.  Another issue would be your color choice, with so many shades to choose from, your decision may become somewhat difficult.  

Here are a few tips to help pick the perfect color:

*  Choose a color that you love and will look good on you.
*  Pick a shade that will blend well with the wedding.
*  Choose something that expresses your personality and style.
*  Select colors that blend well with the season.

Color is a great way to stand out with your wedding gown. Just be careful, you don’t want to look like you’re going on a prom or to a black tie dinner.

Let’s get inspired! 



If you are not sure about the entire dress in one color, try a two tone gown
 


Just enough purple to see the color but not too much to be overwhelming

Be as subtle or as bold as you like
