What Colour Should I Go For ?

So many ladies that are to marry have a great worry about what colour their wedding gown should be.

The normal train of thought for a bride is for a white wedding dress, but this does not always flatter a lot of people’s skin types. White looks wonderful on a dark-skinned woman who’s features are lifted with the white fabric.

Whereas, a paler more English Rose complexion definitely needs the soft, natural tone of an ivory colour wedding gown as this enhances the face and warms the skin giving more of a radiant glow.

Many colours can be worn for your wedding day – there are no rules. Red is often worn in Indian weddings where the opulence of gold embroidery sets the skin off beautifully.

Golds are much softer tones and can make any bride feel glamourous. Silver and blue tones are wonderful for blondes, or pale skinned ladies looking for an alternative colour.

The dramatic colours in tartans and bold prints can look fantastic in the right wedding setting.

Colour as a detail on the bridal gown lifted from a bridesmaids dress makes a complete co-ordinated look and matching ties or cravats for the gentlemen add to the beautifully presented picture. The bridesmaids colours are so important, dictating the flowers and table settings at the wedding venue.

The Mother of the bride is also influenced by this colour theme – so that no clashes occur – and assuring a certain harmony for the wedding photographs.
