Wedding Attire: Modern or Traditional?

Lynnie, on April 23, 2019 at 11:05 AM

One of the first things you picture when someone says "wedding" is a bride in white! This tradition seems to be holding strong - we surveyed last year's couples, and 82% of them said at least one of them wore white on the wedding day. Are you sticking with the tried-and-true tradition of wearing white on the wedding day? Or are you wearing more modern and colorful attire? (Bring on the blush, blue, and lavender dresses!! )

Traditional for the most part. My dress is white, but does have a bit of ivory and beige.

I am wearing ivory. I wish it was stark white but the dress of my dreams didn’t come in true white. Oh well, it’s gorgeous

Traditional but also a little modern. It was an ivory tulle and lace a-line gown with a moscato (blush) underlay. I didn't want an all white gown, so this was perfect for me.

Traditional. It's not pure white, but it's definitely not any other color.

Modern for me. It will be white, but it won’t be a wedding gown.

Traditional for the most part... my dress is ivory lace over pale blush. I just didn’t like the bright white dresses, they don’t compliment me well.
