Colour is the new white! Straying from the customary Queen Victoria-inspired white dress, brides are flocking to Pinterest, and other social media sites for inspiration on how to make their day as vibrant and unique as they
are.
Hovik Harutyunyan of Modern LA Weddings tells brides how "many cultures around the world don't even wear white for their weddings! In Africa, wedding dresses feature colourful, symbolic patterns that tell stories from the bride's culture, while black symbolizes devotion until death in Spain, China believes red brings good fortune, and white is reserved for funerals in India!"
Check out these creative ideas on how to walk down the aisle in colour:
The Dress: A lot of non-traditional brides are now creating colourful gowns for their weddings. From dresses inspired by Gwen Stefani's pink dyed gown by Christian Dior, to Dita Von Tees's Bird of Paradise dress by Vivienne Westwood, more and more brides are walking down the aisle in colour; some are even wearing dresses based on their favourite theme!
Petticoats: If you prefer to stick with a white dress, you can add a pop of fun and colour with a petticoat! It's definitely a unique to make your special day colourful.
Rainbow Lights: Some brides are taking colour to a new level, using electrical, LED and fiber optic coloured lights in their dresses. Go from traditional to incredible with the flip of a switch to signal the start of the festivities!
One-of-a-kind Wearable Art: Lady Gaga wore a dress made of raw meat, Alexander McQueen made a dress full of hand-made Butterflies while Jean-Charles de Castelbajac makes clothing out of toys! Brides are also stepping outside the box and celebrating their funky vibrant style in dresses made of Bread Tags, cake, and other odd-ball materials.
Shoes: Some brides are opting to wear a white dress with fun coloured shoes! This is a great way to keep with tradition, while giving it your own twist. Jenny Chang of Rock N Events tells brides, "Whether you want to wear diamond covered heels, or mismatched colourful flats, the most important thing is to be you!"
Jewelry: Jewelry is an awesome way to add a splash of colour to your get-up. Did you know diamonds and crystals come in every colour!? Try rocking one huge colourful sparkler with your white ensemble to create a unique blend of style and tradition.
Trash The Dress: After the ceremony, have fun and throw a splash of colour at your love! You can use non-toxic, environmentally friendly coloured powder to achieve this.
