What did you wear to your wedding?

General
1

I just got officially engaged and started looking at dresses just to get an idea of what’s around me and to try and see what I might like. The all white gowns don’t really feel like “me” and I’ve seen some absolutely stunning white with black dresses. I guess the point to my post is , how many of yall wore something OTHER THAN your typical all white dress ? Pics included would be great

I wore an all black dress and I was absolutely in love with it. We eloped so didn’t have a ceremony but I would do it a thousand times over again

I had a blush dress and it was gorgeous :face_holding_back_tears: I tried on a ton of white dresses and saw the blush one and said I’ll try it as a joke… but then fell in love with it!

I was 7 1/2 months pregnant so my options was limited . It was the biggest sized maternity dress i could find, in April we will be married 36 yrs

I getting married 4/24 and definitely wearing a colored dress. Now if I could only decide between blush, blue or black I’d be good lol

I wore a basic black, technically prom dress. It was $50 and had a leg slit and draping on the bust. I just always feel nicer in black.

I just had a standard ivory colour dress. However if your like me and “top heavy” don’t make the same mistake I did and please for the love of god, your own comfort, sanity and not needing to pull it up thousands of times in 6 hours. GET STRAPS! :see_no_evil:

My mom wore ivory and peach. If I had had a traditional wedding I would have worn it. My husband and I did a JP wedding and said he didn’t care if I wore a dress or not…

I’m not married, but at one point I was going to be.
Wear what you love! My pick was a blush gown and it was gorgeous, but I loved a bunch of other “non traditional “ gowns too! Unfortunately I don’t have pictures of it anymore, but I can post a picture of one similar to it.

I’m going to wear green. A deep dark green. Whites not really my style either and I’ve looked at several other colored dresses (black, purple, etc) but I think the dark green with look best with my hair/eye color and skin tone (or lack of lmfao). I am going to have my daughters in white dresses though to offset my green dress and have them with green accents/accessories. We’re not going to have a big wedding either. Might just be out little family or possibly a few extra friends and family.

I did wear all white for my ceremony, but I changed into a black and champagne dress for my reception dress. This was by far my favorite of the 2 dresses, but my husband wanted me in white for our ceremony.

I wanted to wear sage green, but realised (just in time!) That because my husband is red/green colourblind, the colour that I wanted seems grey to him. I didn’t want him to think I got married in a grey dress, so I did ivory and blue.

I started looking at dresses too and I have found a few white with black accents that I love. Good thing I have a man who is fine with me in a white and black dress. I hate the white, off white and ivory dresses

My daughter had three outfits: a white gauzy jumpsuit with a cape for the ceremony, a more traditional wedding dress but in black for pictures, and a backless sequin gown because it was in Las Vegas. She got them fairly inexpensively (probably made by poor kids in sweatshops :frowning:). Her photo shoots took place in Valley of Fire, Red Rock Canyon and by the Welcome to Fabulous Las Vegas sign. It was a small group for the wedding and weekend of activities. Many months later she had a fall beach barbecue and wore a casual outfit.

wore black to renew vows :black_heart:

We knew our colors were going to be red and black. He had told me he wanted to wear a white suit. I HATE white. But I tried on 3 white dresses and didn’t like them. Put this one on and I’m like this is it! I walked out and everyone that was there was like that’s it, that’s you! Our girls had on red, the guys were in black even their shirts but tie was red.

I wore a white dress that was trimmed around top of chest and down center of back with a deep burgundy strip and a corset back. Since it didn’t have a train and i didn’t really want one I went with a cathedral length vail. I paid $89 at Dillard’s for the dress.

My bf couldn’t find what she wanted in a wedding dress,after we went to about 8 stores & she tried on sssoooo many dresses.

First marriage white
Second burgundy - not the dress I wanted. The one I wanted was already purchased and did not come in time and was non-returnableas it was a special order. We are thinking about renewing our vows at church with extended family/friends and having a reception for our 5th anniversary which will be two years from tomorrow. I will wear the intended dress then.

My dress was knee length black lace

White is traditionally worn for a first wedding. Save the black for funerals. There will be plenty of those as time passes. After the ceremony and the pictures, you may wish to change to an attractive pastel outfit for the reception.
