Anyone go with a non traditional dress?

The other day my fh and I were talking about colors. I always knew I wanted purple to be one of my wedding colors but wasn’t sure about what shade. I figured I would figure out the specific shade after I picked out my dress. Well we were on Pinterest looking at color themes and he sees ombré dresses and white dresses with black accents ( mostly white) and tells me know he likes these dresses and thinks I would look good in something different like that!


At first I was like no! I never imagined myself in anything but white but only because that’s the norm, and I figured that would be what he would want! But after thinking about it more why not have an open mind and do something nobody I know would be brave enough to do! I also think when he first showed me ombré dresses or white dresses with black accents they weren’t the best quality dresses, after looking more I found two online that I think could be the one!
If you did a non traditional dress how did you get your mom and bridesmaids on board?
