Ladies will be having a wedding in August?

Question

Do you think I should go with the traditional white wedding gown or those with colours not white what is more elegant

Answer 1

Maybe go for a white gown with work that is off white or ever so slightly pink or yellow. Those are probably the best colors for a wedding dress. It probably best to keep the first layer of the dress an off white or white though. Just remember to keep the color light and airy.

The best idea I can think of is maybe an off white dress that has antique lace on it as well as some bead work.

Hope this helps!

Here are some wedding dress pics I liked:

Answer 2

I think white is more elegant, but it all depends on what you like, maybe you are not the traditional person, that day should be all about you

Answer 3

White is lovely.  There was one I saw when I got married that was white, but had a ribbon around the waist...just under the b***s and I though it was fantastic.  Then, my super freaky friend Dee had one that was black and white.  Mostly white, but her abdomen, under the b***s had a layer of black lace over the white and she wore black lace finger gloves.  Then her hair was done in a fancy flapper look with a black feather.  I loved it...so, it's really all a matter of YOUR preference...it is your day after all.

Answer 4

White is always the Right

Choice.

And a lot more elegant.

Answer 5

how about eggshell white?

Answer 6

it depends on whether or not you are traditional. i would suggest finding a style of dress that you love and try it on in both white and ivory. see which one you feel the best in and which one makes you feel more beautiful. this is what i did and i ended up with the white. also my wedding colors were black and white so it made more sense.

Answer 7

You may not be able to get a wedding gown at all because the date is so close.  It's not like you can order a gown and have it shipped in one week.  You better get moving.

Answer 8

White is a very unflattering colour to most women.

Try shades of cream or ivory. They are a lot warmer and flattering to most skin tones.

And they are just as elegant and classic as white.

It's your decision though and you need to decide what suits you best and makes you feel beautiful.

Answer 9

I love white dresses... It's so traditional and I'm very much so all about tradition haha!

Another option I've been seeing a lot is that sort of off-white or cream colored dress. Some of the styles are so beautiful in those colors.

But I think you should go with whatever color makes you happy! It all depends on what you want for your special day :)

Congrats!!

Answer 10

I think if you are a virgin you should wear white and if you aren't you shouldn't.  Hey you asked for opinions.

Answer 11

White gown. Or ivory depending on your skin tone. You can never go wrong and looking back years from now you won't regret it, as you might with a color....

Traditional is always more elegant!

Answer 12

White it very pure and beautiful. But if it makes you look washed out ivory it also pretty!

Answer 13

I went for a white gown with pretty "bead" patterns from Davids Bridal.
