What do you think of bridal gowns in non-traditional white?

As strange as this may sound coming from me, I prefer the traditional white gowns. A wedding is *the* one day when I can be a total girl, the day when I get to pause my usual deviance in favor of something as solemn and beautiful as this union between two people who are in love. I would only walk down that aisle in white. While it is just a symbol, I will see it not just as a symbol of virginity as purity, but also as love in its most unadulterated state.

I'm being romantic. What the heck has gotten into me?

I say you should wear whatever you want, it's your wedding day!

why not?/ i would even love to walk (again,im already married,he he) down the aisle in burgundy,purple or even black if i had or want to,hey this is not the age of the virgin bride anymore & the white gown in some weddings actually symbolizes a lie of some sort as some if not most of todays brides were no longer virgins befoe they say their i dos.

white is not always THE best choice for a wedding gown in this modern time lovey.you can wear any color of bridal gows that you wish to.

Q1./ The tradition is white but you, my girl, are a free spirit and I am sure you will pick the colour you want.
Q2./ Me, no way

the truth is not every woman looks good in white...especially ALL white....it has to do with body shape, skin tone, hair color....fashion designers will tell you that most women will look better in an off-white dress than in ultra white dress....not only do we want to look good for our special day, we are going to have pictures and videos that will last a lifetime and personally, i don't want to look like a giant marshmallow in them. i say pick out the right style and color for you and take pictures while trying on dresses so you'll know how it looks besides having mirrors...also, have someone you trust to be completely honest with you while you're picking your dress.

Nope, because I want to walk down the aisle with the color that represents what every bride should be.

whatever float you boat nena girl.......but that is weird.

wedding/marriage is something sacred to me, i want it to be solemn and memorable so if pink wedding dress will do it for you, go for it.

I like mine in golden creme, champagne or light gold bridal gown and not purely in white but never in other shocking colors. lol <*-*>

It is now common to wear non-traditional whites by brides, usually ivory or cream. And this should be the case when brides are no longer virgins because whites symbolize purity - meaning, untouched. I sometimes see brides who are 3 or 5 months pregnant wear white at their weddings. I guess they didn't know what they were doing or, they forgot what white means.

white is a symbol of purity.

my dress was what's called bridal pink... it's a very very light pink but until you put it against the white, you don't realise it's different... but in the photo's it came out beautifully!

yes I would! It's your wedding - you get to wear what you want - especially if you pay for it.

Tradition is a good thing and good for some people, but not all.

Start your own. Wear your favorite Halloween costume!

no, i think weddings are all about traditions, and getting married in any other colour wouldent feel like being a bride. I think for some people its nice to have off white colours, say a very dull pink, champagne or oyster colour, but very dull, nothing bright, although i did adore gwen stefani's wedding gown which was white, but the bottom was dipped in pink dye, it looked stunning on her, but me im a traditonal white girl :)

Depends. If you want a formal, traditional wedding, then obviously no. But if you want a more modern wedding, you can get away with wearing pretty much whatever you want. Personally, I think white is prettier for a wedding. But I'm pretty traditional. Other colors are fine. My aunt got married in a red dress, and it was a beautiful ceremony.

daisycm

never. i had a jp marry me and i still wore white, even though it was just a sundress

I think that would be really cool!! As long as the Grooms feeling are taken into consideration...and while I know it's not the families day....one should make sure you aren't stepping on any traditions or hurting any feelings just for the sake of "being different".

I really think the tradition of an all white dress is on it's way out!! There are soooo many really nice colours out there....it's high time we start using them!!

jen_major_uno

well not in those colours but i would wear something that's not traditional white.

Why not to day with so many people living with each other don't you really think, wearing white has lost it value,

traditionally, only virgins get to white gowns.

but we won't tell anyone, will we?

As long as it is tasteful...go for it! Remember, it will be your wedding and you can/should try to only do it once.
