Embroidery is one of those small details that adds a lot of glam to anything. If you want to add this glamorous touch, colorful embroidered flowers on a wedding dress will be perfect. You will have both a colorful dress thanks to the embroidery and a simple dress because you can go for a white or off-white dress as the base for the embroidery.

If your wedding theme is minimal, you'll want something simple to match, and nothing beats a nude colored wedding gown if you don't want to wear a white dress. It's very simple and flattering on all skin tones. With this color, I believe a bold make-up look will complement the overall look very well!

Your wedding gown can be made from a variety of fabrics and colors. I love the idea of combining different fabrics and colors, such as starting with a color and layering a lighter shade of the color until you reach the white color. Is it suitable for a wedding?

If you've always wanted to wear a white gown but wanted to add a splash of color because you think a plain white gown is very boring, consider this dress idea. The top is colored (you can choose any of your favorite colors) and the bottom is plain white. I believe a wedding veil with the same concept will give you the perfect final look.

Why limit yourself to just one color when you can experiment with several? You can choose a wedding gown in a variety of pastel colors. It's colorful, but it's also subtle. The wedding veil can be any color that matches the dress. I believe this wedding gown concept is very unique and will make everyone say, "I wish I had a wedding gown like her!" However, only you, the bride, should wear pastel colors among the guests.
