Color Controversy

Most girls dream of walking down the isle in a big white dress. It's one of the only consistent wedding traditions. Now we see most brides leaning towards an off white dress and every once and awhile a modern bride comes along who wants to make a statement. Her statement just happens to fall in the midst of a white tradtion. She goes against the grain and wears a colored dress:

So for our bride readers out there who are leaning towards the colored dress trend, we say to stop and think first.

Disadvantages:

• You may not be the only one wearing your color.
• You can always wear a colored dress.
• What color will your bridesmaids wear? Colors are harder to pair up together.
• When can you honestly wear another big white dress again?

Advantages:

• Colors compliment most skin tones better than white or ivory.
• Don't have to worry THAT much about staining your dress.
• You're the bride, so you will stand out regardless of the color of your dress.
• A colored dress can incoprorate your color scheme and vision more.

So how far is too far for a pop of color? Do any of you brides plan on wearing a colored dress? And do any of you traditional brides think it's going too far?
