As a bride, you may not feel like you can go so far out-of-the-box as to wear a bright purple gown like the one I mentioned in our ‘Dita in white’ photo shoot. Or even if you want to, you may have any number of restrictions, as many brides do. For instance, if Mum is footing the bill and she gets a say in everything you wear, she may not, in a million years, go for a gown that’s not white. If you don’t want to spend all your time fighting with her about it, or dealing with her dissatisfaction on the day of your wedding, you might strike a nice compromise:
Pick a beautiful white gown, and then use accessories to introduce color to your look! You may have to look hard to find something you love, but the right accessories ARE out there. (and we can help you find them!) Consider wearing a hat instead of a traditional veil, as hats come in lots of really cool styles and colors. Also consider using your jewelry and shoe choices to bring color into your look. This way Mum gets you in a white dress, and she is so happy she cries, AND you get to have the color expression that you want. That’s a happy mini-marriage right there!
If you are looking for ideas about how to make your accessories work with your wedding colors, our line of colorful and fun accouterments, called Xharisma Bridal Accessories may have just the perfect thing for you. All the items in this line are available for both purchase and rental. We can also custom design all of your accessories in your choice of wedding colors. Contact us for more information.
