A bride may choose to wear a color other than white on her wedding day for various reasons. Perhaps she wants to stand out and make a statement, or she simply believes that the traditional white dress is overused. Despite what some may think, including mothers-in-law who may hold onto conventional views, not all wedding dresses need to be white to symbolize love and commitment.

Choosing a non-traditional color can reflect the bride’s personality and style, making the day even more special. Whether it’s a soft blush, a bold red, or a vibrant blue, the right color can enhance the overall theme of the wedding and create a unique atmosphere.

 

Long Green Dress on Facebook/@Brides Beware

While online shopping can be tempting, it's generally best to purchase wedding attire in person. In this case, a bride ordered a stunning green-wrapped dress for her wedding, but what arrived in the mail was far from her expectations. Instead of the elegant gown she envisioned, the dress looked more suited for a Renaissance Faire cosplayer.

The garment was made from two distinct, inexpensive types of fabric, and the wrap bore no resemblance to the picture that had originally attracted her. The quality was disappointing, leading to the conclusion that this clothing should simply be discarded.
