Lace up your white wedding gown with a rainbow of colors
Offbeat Bride reader Katie said that she never thought she’d have a white dress. So, she explained, “I really colored it up with my accessories!” Including this awesome shock of rainbow colors in the ribbon that laced up the back of her gown.
My wedding helped me decide what to do with my dress
Before the wedding I spent a fair amount of time wondering what to do with my gown after the wedding. Trash the dress shoot? Shorten for later use? Save for a possible future daughter? How could I ever decide? My wedding — that day made it all so very clear.
How I made my own green Victorian-inspired wedding dress
The journey of my dress began in a fabric shop where I discovered a luscious, sage green velvet embroidered with leafy vines and flower buds. I left the shop and went home, but couldn’t stop thinking about that cloth. The next day I went back to look again and bought 8.5 yards of the fabric, everything the store had on hand. After enlisting the help of my friend, this is how I made my own Victorian-inspired wedding dress!
