Black wedding dress

Alicia, 17 December, 2024 at 01:49 Posted on Wedding Attire 2 18
I'm a bride to be in next 2/3 but iv been struggling to find a nice back dress admittedly iv been picky i want either a black or green dress but it's a struggle since it's common to wear white but I despise white so I need help of places that sell wedding dresses and a budget for the dress isn't too much of a problem. Thanks for any help or direction

    I'd suggest trying a shop that specialises in evening wear rather than bridal wear - you should be able to find a wide range of evening dresses in black or green. Alternatively, if budget isn't an issue for you, maybe look for a style you like and get one custom made in the fabric of your choice.

    My friend works for Wed2Be and she did say the bigger branches get some black wedding dresses in. So if you had one near by?

    I am also going to get married dressed in a black wedding dress, and I have been struggling to find the one. It would be great to be able to walk in a bridal shop full of black wedding dresses and have the experience like many brides have.

    If budget isn't too much of a concern I would 100% recommend legend bridals in Leeds. They do an absolutely fantastic range of gorgeous alt wedding dresses. I went there trying to get a black dress and my god I feel like a legendary queen in my black lace dress with stitched pentagram on the bodice.

    They are pricey dresses as they are all hand made custom to each person. but they have payment plans and for someone who refuses to spend over a 10 pounds for most clothes I wear I would say they are 100% worth the money.

    Honestly, search for prom dresses rather than wedding dresses when looking for the less common wedding colours, plenty of options out there when searching that. Smiley smile

    Congratulations on your upcoming wedding! It's wonderful that you're embracing your own style and looking for a black or green dress, which can be stunning and unique for your big day. While white is the traditional choice, there are plenty of options available for non-traditional brides.

    Start by checking specialized bridal shops, as many now carry dresses in alternative colors like black or green. Some boutiques may not have them on display but can order custom designs or samples in your chosen color. It's a good idea to call ahead and ask if they have options in stock to save time.

    Online retailers can also be a great resource for finding unique wedding dresses. Websites like Etsy offer custom-made gowns in various colors, allowing you to work directly with designers to create your dream dress. Other sites like Azazie and BHLDN have a range of dresses in different colors, including elegant options in black or green. If you’re open to exploring luxury retailers, brands like Vera Wang or Monique Lhuillier occasionally feature darker or non-traditional designs in their collections.

    For a more budget-friendly or eclectic approach, consider evening gown shops or formalwear boutiques, as they often carry dresses in a variety of colors that could easily suit a wedding. If you’re willing to explore high-end secondhand options, platforms like Stillwhite or Poshmark sometimes have unique finds.

    When searching online or in stores, use keywords like “black wedding dress,” “green bridal gown,” or even “formal black evening gown” to broaden your options. With a flexible budget, you’ll have even more possibilities to find something truly special.

    Your non-traditional choice will not only make a statement but also reflect your personality, and there are plenty of ways to make it perfect. Best wishes on finding the dress of your dreams and for your upcoming Zumbalicious crew wedding!
