White Wedding Dress blues.

We have all seen them, lace fabric, big skirts, cinched waists, silhouette gowns and WHITE. It’s traditional. But what if you are not feeling traditional? Maybe you and your partner are unconventional. Maybe you want to say something about your one of a kind love by wearing something radically different. Purple? A two piece…top and skirt or flowy pants? A short, flirty number? Red and Blue flowers- hey maybe you are patriotic? An elegant black formal gown that oozes sensuality- romantic and moody. This is your ONE chance to do ANYTHING you want. Why wear what EVERYONE else wears?

Think about what color makes you feel alive and beautiful, sassy and confident. Remember what you were wearing when you landed your first big job or client— how you felt walking down the street after you just broke up with your not-so-great boyfriend or strolling through the park imagining a conversation that would set you free. That is how you want to feel in your wedding dress, empowered.

Now play with texture— wanna wrap yourself in velvet (aka George from Seinfeld) or maybe just a little velour for some shimmer and elegance. What about a form fitting knit? You could adorn yourself in silky satin or show yourself playfully under chiffon, something sheer and delicate. If you still want to feel like a princess how about organza or tulle in your favorite colors. Whatever you think says “here I am marrying the love of my life” make sure you feel comfortable and joyful in your chosen wedding attire so that you can bask in the glow of your most memorable day.
