As years have passed, weddings have taken so many forms. Traditional, destination, and alternative are just some of the directions you can take when planning your wedding. For non-traditional weddings, otherwise known as alternative, these can be some of the most fun events to attend. Even though alternative brides and weddings are already unique and as colourful as possible, here are some ways that alternative brides can add even more colour into their big day!
Wear a Colourful Wedding Dress
The first and most obvious place to start with wanting a colourful alternative wedding is within your wedding dress. Nowadays, there are numerous kinds of wedding dress colours available. Whether you’re interested in wearing a light pink, black, red, or blue, wearing a colourful wedding dress is the perfect starting point for making your wedding a colourful affair.
Add in Bold Accessories
Why not use your wedding dress as the perfect building block to add in other bold accessories as well? Depending on what kind of vibe you’re going for, this can be achieved through wearing a wide-brimmed hat, rocking feather earrings or adding a colourful bib necklace to your look. Whatever you choose to go with, wearing a bold accessory is just one more thing that will help add colour and personality to your wedding.
Find Dresses that Show Off Your Tattoos
If you’re someone with a love for ink, use your wedding day as the time to show it off! While there are numerous styles of wedding dresses, find one that not only fits your body perfectly but also shows off some of your body art. If you have tattoos on your back, find a backless wedding dress that shows them off. If you and/or your partner have tattoos on your arms, you can wear a sleeveless dress and your partner can wear a shirt with his sleeves rolled up. The other option is of course to find a wedding dress you love and make alterations to your exact specifications. This day is all about you, so don’t be afraid to show off what makes you uniquely special.
Have Your Bridal Party Rock Coloured Hair
If you really want your alternative wedding to stand out, have your bridal party get involved. As your bridesmaids are more than likely to be rocking the same kind of dresses, why not have them rock similar coloured hair as well? Adding in fun hair colours to your wedding party will be something your guests and bridesmaids will look back on fondly.
