A recent request landed in my inbox from a bride in need - this unnamed lady was looking for a wedding dress, but not in white. No cream, ivory or snowy lace for her, she wanted something colourful and fun to wear on her big day, but was finding it difficult to find anything that wasn't a debs dress, beautiful Coloured Wedding Dresses were proving elusive.
Well, this was a challenge I was more than willing to undertake - hey, virtual dress shopping is my favourite pastime. So here are a selection of favourites I found that I think would work really well as coloured wedding dresses... They range from designer and pricey, to brilliant budget options, some might even work for a bridesmaid if you're feeling generous to your bestie...
I found all of these online, but many are designer names that are available in boutiques around Ireland and the UK or would be available for order.
