Help! Candlelight gown??

DonnaBelle, on May 29, 2012 at 2:49 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 6

I found the perfect dress over the weekend and am ready to order it (the boutique is currently having a sale) this coming weekend. The in-store sample was Ivory. After my appointment I made up my mind to go for the white for traditions sake. Today I called the boutique to set up an appointment to come in and order the dress, and am informed that the dress also comes in candlelight. Does anyone know what this is?! I tried on another dress at the boutique that was diamond white...is it similar? I really liked the diamond white. I'd love something in between white and ivory...will candlelight fit the bill? Any candlelight gown brides here?

    I tried on a dress in candlelight and it was more of an ivory gold it's very pretty but not close to diamond white. Did they have a swatch that you could look at?

    It is more on the ivory side. Very pretty though. I was actually engaged several years before my now engagement and my first wedding dress was candlelight which I loved and looked great with a tan. I had every intention of getting this same color in my now dress as it was the same designer. However, the dress I fell in love with came in either white or diamond white. I went for the diamond white. Diamond white is not as stark as white and toned down slightly but no where near the ivory side. So for future reference remember diamond white is lighter than white and candlelight is on the creamier side but not that dark. Good luck!

    Thanks @Kristen S. I really wish I could get diamond white. I may just go for white since I don't want the ivory color. I'm still hoping to see a swatch of the candlelight when I go in for my appointment this weekend.

    My dress is candlelight. It is ivory, but it doesn't have a yellow tone to it. When the consultant carried out about 5-6 dresses for me to try, my eye went immediately to the candlelight one. I actually think there are whitish undertones to it, but that could all depend on the manufacturer. I really love the color.
