    For my orignal wedding dress (currently in alteration limbo and being used next year for the celebration/re-do), white.
    For my elopement dress, colourful - the petticoat, belt, and halter straps are all a royal blue. My converse laces are getting replaced with a matching blue ribbon. (See picture below)

    I wanted a white dress, but I have a light complexion so an off-white looked better. But no colourful accents.

    I like the blue one you had a picture of. White came into vogue after Queen Victoria wore it for her wedding. In those days, women didn't wear white for obvious feminine reasons and the possibility of seepage. I like that designers are using other colours for wedding dresses.

    In addition to being obsessed with blush ballgowns, I have a new love for blue dresses like this one from Hayley Paige and this dress that was featured on the WeddingWire Canada instagram a few days ago!!

    White or Ivory for sure. I love gowns with colour but to me it loses the bridal feel and looks like evening wear.

    White due to the traditional aspect, my mother did Pink in the 80's, Burgundy in the 90's and Green in the 00's and that was cool to see but not my thing

    White! Well, I went with ivory with porcelain and moscato, but it definitely isn't colourful!

    I always thought it would be a coloured dress for me but I fell in love with my ivory dress.

    My dress is ivory. It was the white that worked best with my skin tone.
