15 Brides Who Chose Non Traditional Clothes for Their Wedding Day

year ago

The color white for wedding dresses started as a symbolization of a woman’s purity and her entering her new, married life. However, this tradition is often overlooked nowadays, with women opting for either different colors or completely different style. These alternative closes look so refreshing and show how some people don’t care about traditions as much as others.

Now I’ve Seen Everything found 15 wedding dresses and gowns that are the exact opposite of what you would expect a bride to wear.

“Here’s my finished dress that I crocheted for my wedding reception! I’m so relieved that I finished it in time!”

“My mother (the sewing queen) and my mother-in-law (the crochet queen) made my wedding dress!”

“I said ’no’ to the dress.”

This dress is made out of a vintage table cloth.

“I found this dress at a thrift store that mostly does furniture and it was the only one...and it was my size!”

“This is my favorite picture from our wedding day. It was October in Colorado, so the temperature was perfect.”

“I said ’yes’ to this dress after almost losing hope, and I love it!”

“I found my perfect dress for $80 — now is the season to look for second-hand graduation dresses (especially if you’re not stuck on white).”

“I’m so excited about my wedding dress, I feel like a fairy.”

This is a fully handmade dress.

“I’ll never regret not wearing a white dress to my wedding.”

“Our photographer did gorgeous work, I can’t wait to see the rest!”

“I made and hand-embroidered my wedding dress. I was inspired in part by the embroiderer who worked for Game of Thrones.”

“The poinsettias are meant to represent my Mexican heritage, and the Turkish tulips at the bottom represent my husband’s.”

“This is my wedding dress. I felt like a woodland creature.”

“I crocheted my wedding dress for my lil ceremony.”

If you’ve gotten married, did you go for a traditional dress or went a bit off script and wore something more unique?
