You all probably know by now that I wore an Ivory dress and red shoes to my wedding.

While I always believe there’s a place for tradition, I think there’s also room for you to stretch yourself in some places and do what you want as the Bride. Ultimately it’s you and your husband’s wedding and you all should do what makes you happiest.

That said, I encourage you all to make color choices that are just what you want, not what everyone this is right and proper. It’s one of those things that doesn’t cost you any extra dollars, but can really make a huge difference.

Maybe you want to wear a black dress.

Or a red dress.

Or maybe you’ve already been married, but you want to wear white.

Or maybe, you want your bridesmaids to wear white right along with you.

These may not be traditional choices, but if they’re what you want, by all means don’t hold back.

Do what makes you happiest. Everyone else will fall in line.
