Colourful wedding dress
SunnyIvoryHair605, 18 September, 2016 at 00:24

I am looking for a non-traditional wedding dress that is colourful (not sure what colour yet) rather than pure white. Does anyone know where I can buy in UK as most shops sell white dresses?

Christmas Shopping
yorkshirekiwi, 27 October, 2015 at 21:51
