It has becoming more and more fashionable to break with tradition for many modern brides may want their wedding gowns to be unique and reflect their own styles, so choosing a colored wedding gown can be an admirable way to make impressive weddings. But there are some tips you may bear in mind when it comes to choosing the color of your bridal gown.
Skin Tone and Hair Color
Make sure the color of your wedding gown complements your skin tone and hair color. Some colors can enhance your coloring and some can not. For instance, colors like blue or brown may not be appropriate for dark skin brides as they will make your skins look darker, while bright shades will work well with you.
Wedding Theme
Consider your theme and color scheme of your wedding before choosing the color of your wedding gown. The hue of your wedding dress must be in harmony with the wedding ensembles, but it does not mean that the bride and bridesmaid should wear the gowns with the same color. If you are to hold an extremely formal wedding, you may not put on a wedding dress with a bold color.
Style
Different colors may create different feelings and suit different wedding themes. A bridal dress in red can be dramatic while pink can be romantic and feminine. Hot pink is a color that makes brides look sexy and mature.
Season
Choosing colors according to the season you wed. For example, a spring wedding may call for fresh shades of pink or light green, whereas an autumn wedding is well suited to a wedding gown with warm shades like red or orange.
Complementary Colors
Colored wedding dresses may not have to be big and bold. You can blend a little bit of complementary colors into your wedding dress to add that wow factor to your wedding day. For example, you can choose a bold red sash to decorate your pale pink wedding dress. Of course, the colors you are to select should be pleasing to the eye when mixed together. There are some color combos such as yellow and blue, red and green, black and white or red and white that all can create a stunning visual effect when combined.
