Will I regret not choosing a white wedding dress? I am thinking of choosing pink.?

Notice how the two comments that say to stick with white are both from guys.  \nA lot of people think white has to be used because it is tradition, blah blah blah.  Just do whatever you want.  \nI am getting married and I am considering something different also.  I thought about pink, but now I am thinking about red or burgundy.  It doesn't matter.  \nIf you still want to get married in white, maybe you can choose a white dress with some pink designs or flowers on it.  \nI am having two weddings, one w/a judge, and one in Mexico.  So I have two options.  \nYou can also wear a nice white dress for the ceremony and later on change into a fabolous pink dress.\n\nGOOD LUCK!

Well,\nI am pregnant, so it was a challenge to find one but,\nAfter looking for months, i had finally decided on this amazing little knee length brown dress accented with cream ribbons, and brown ballet flats with little cream bows on them. However, when i got to Italy i put my dress on and realised that i had gained more in my bust than i expected to! so i had to get it altered but, all the places couldnt fix it in enough time! so, finally i found this little old italian grandmother with 14 grandchildren. She, didnt understand me, i guess, so, she took it in, instead of allowing for more room! i immediatly rushed out to find something else, but no where had anything that would fit my 5 month pregnant body.  i was devastated, and didnt know what to do, until i got a call from kelly preston who said that she would have john fly a few of her pregancy gowns down to help me out. They got there just in time, and i settled on a crimson and white just-below-the-knee one she wore to a relative's wedding when she was pregnant with her son.  Thank goodness she was there, i dont know what i would have done.

PLEASE GO FOR SOMETHING BOLD, AND MOST OF ALL UNIQUE!!

Pretty colors! Why not try a 3 or 4 tier rounded cake. Brown all over frosting with turquoise vines and very small flowers? That would be pretty. But use your imagination. Stick with the feeling you want to convey at your wedding. Good Luck.

You're going to be wearing this ring for a long, long time, hopefully for the rest of your life, so for heaven's sake, get what you like! A good bet is to think about the jewelry you wear now, the stuff you find yourself grabbing again and again because you prefer it and it flatters you (watch, earrings, necklaces, etc.) If it's mostly yellow gold, then that's probably what you should choose in a wedding ring.\n\nAnd, no, there's no reason in the world that your two rings need to match. You are two different people, with two different styles, which is a great thing, and should be celebrated. (by the way, my fiancee chose an antique styled yellow gold band, and I chose a more modern styled white gold one. we have the same psalm inscribed in our rings, which unites our two very different styled rings.)\n\nGood luck, and congrats!

I am getting married in three weeks, and I would not be offended. I think as long as you do not wear solid white you would be fine. And it's the lower half and would certainly not be that obvious. I would assume also, that the bride would have more going on that day, than to really notice what color your skirt is.

Depending on where you are is the answer.  I am married to a Pakistani man and I had a small wedding the American way but I also got married at a mosque.  Pakistanis have very beautiful weddings there dresses are usually very colorful and very very nice.  I have seen from video other family members weddings the way they do it and I am very jealous because if I could I would do it that way, I would.  My husband is very nice and now we have 2 anniversaries 1 week apart because the first one was my way by a preacher and his way by an Iman.  I love the way the way they get married and how the people dress for it but that is my opinion.  Talk to the man you are gonna marry and see what he says.  If you want a beautiful wedding dress then he should understand but depending on how your wedding is gonna be is what you should wear because if you wed the Pakistani way I don't think the white wedding dress will be appropriate.

My wedding coming this September is country themed.  I'm using mason jars with either fresh flowers or floating candles for my centerpieces and my colors are black, white, and pink.  I'm also going to have horse shoes for decorations.  I'm still looking for white wedding boots though.  And if you have can drinks or beer at your wedding you could get a big metal wash tub and fill it with ice and put your drinks in that!   Congratulations!

The Wedding Ensemble\n\nOnce the bride chose her wedding day, a prerogative conferred upon her by the groom, she could begin planning her trousseau, the most important item of which was her wedding dress.\n\nBrides have not always worn white for the marriage ceremony. In the 16th and 17th centuries for example, girls in their teens married in pale green, a sign of fertility. A mature girl in her twenties wore a brown dress, and older women even wore black. From early Saxon times to the 18th century, only poorer brides came to their wedding dressed in white--a public statement that she brought nothing with her to the marriage. Other brides wore their Sunday best.\n\nColor of the gown was thought to influence one's future life.\n\nWhite--chosen right\nBlue--love will be true\nYellow--ashamed of her fellow\nRed--wish herself dead\nBlack--wish herself back\nGrey--travel far away\nPink--of you he'll always think\nGreen-ashamed to be seen\n\nEver since Queen Victoria wed in 1840, however, white has remained the traditional color for wedding gowns and bouquets. A woman then used her dress for Court Presentation after marriage, usually with a different bodice.

well, i hope it wont happen that, but id like it for one reason : my friend has a problem :she will go at the prom, and she doesn't know what to chose between orange & green (serious problem!!! :)) so, if "orange and green got married and were always together ", she has 2 choices : to give up and chose other colour, or to wear them both! :)

That is what I am doing and I am doing it because it is something that my grandmother did.  When I called off my wedding I was very sad but I knew that I threw a ton of money down the drain and I had a dress that I would never wear.  My grandmother called me a told me that she was proud of me and that she called off her wedding one month before she was suppose to walk down the aisle.  She said that she loved her dress and that she sill wanted to wear it so she did two years later and they were marred for over 53 year until my grandmother died.  She said to me that any man worth his salt will not care about when you bought the dress but that you look great in it.  Don’t worry be happy if you love the dress wear it if you cant sell it on eBay.  Just be happy and thankful that this time you are choosing the right guy to marry.

The etiquette for not wearing white to a traditional American wedding is based on the fact that the bride is anticipated to be wearing white, and the color has been reserved for her to make her stand out on her special day. If cultural differences don't dictate that the bride wears a certain color, then don't worry about it. Just wear something that still puts the focus on the bride on her special day. Also, with the current trend of brides choosing to wear colors as they wish, I'd say that white was fair game for any wedding - the color that should be avoided is whatever color the bride chooses to wear.

Support her in anyway that you can.  Decide what colors you guys should have.  Decide what kind of Wedding you both want.   It's a lot of work, but at the end your fiance will be happy and proud that you helped her.  I know this because I'm getting married in 3 months and wish my fiance would pitch in more.  So definately help out your gal.  She needs support.

You don't have to wear white. Until Queen Victoria was married in a confection of white lace and silk, it was traditional for the bride to wear either the best dress she already owned (Often the dress she wore at her Debutante ball) or to choose a gown that would thereafter be her "Best Dress"...at least until fashions changed.\nAnd this business about white signifying virginity is just plain vulgar....it IS traditional that white should only be worn by a young lady marrying for the first time, but the colour of the dress makes no statement about the body wearing the dress....more experienced brides, remarrying after being divorced or widowed, are often given funny looks if they wear white, so most choose not to defy that convention.
