It's official...colour is in! One of the hottest trends on bridal gowns is to include some colour. Whether your style is a hint of pink or an all red extravagant gown, it's all fair game.
When wearing a coloured wedding dress, you're creativity is also very useful as you need to plan the accessories, flowers and bridesmaids dresses that will best suit the colour splash.
Radiant Red
For an all-red gown, select accents that are also vivid and striking, such as using black feathers in the bridal bouquet. Natural-toned jewelry is a great finishing touch to a bold red dress. Be careful with the flowers, pairing red flowers on the red dress may result in them getting lost and blending in.
Blissful Blue
Matching blue flowers to a blue wedding dress is a little over-the-top, and it is often hard to find complimentary shades. Try classic white or ivory blossoms which are gorgeous and really pop against blue silk. If you prefer something a little more subdued try light yellow flowers.
Pretty in Pink
With a ballet pink wedding dress, use jewelry that combines white pearls with rose coloured crystals. Use constrasting shades of pink in your flowers, such as a deeper shade, or even mixing pink with green or purple.
Blushing Bridesmaids
Keep in mind when selecting a colourful wedding gown that you need to have a plan for the bridesmaids dresses as well. The dresses should not match your accent colour, so think about putting them into another tone in the same family. If you have a pale pink wedding dress, try the bridesmaids in a neutral colour like pewter, or raspberry-coloured dresses. Pull in some flowers for the bridesmaids' bouquets which complement your gown colouring to bring the whole look together.
