Can you help me to find a pastel-coloured, non-strapless wedding dress, please?

[rubyhorse]

Hello all.

My friend is getting married in three months and is looking for a (not too expensive) dress to wear. She doesn't want to wear white / ivory, and suits light colours such as pink, pale blue, and pale sea green. She also suits v-neck styles and would like something full length.

Does anyone have any good suggestions, please? It should be fun and easy, but I think it might turn into a bit of a slog...

TIA.

Love the ghost smoky purple one! Same colour as my new sofas

Is she a 12? This is lovely...

That's just gorgeous! Think she's probably a 10, but will forward...

Also available in floor length

Too dark?

Hi! That was me with the blush wedding dress thread, since nc.

Right, so I really really REALLY recommend that your friend looks at J Crew's bridesmaid options. (I eventually went with the Annabel Grecian gown and it was very very pretty but strapless.) Great customer service and fast shipping.

Loads more here.

(Arabelle not Annabel - the full-length version. The silk chiffon is quite lovely.)

Thank you. I've forwarded the link. They are very beautiful. Are you married now, Faddy? If so, hope it was a good day. You must have looked gorgeous...

Yep, all married ruby. It was really nice, a low-key affair. Just put up a pic on my profile if you want to let your friend have a quick look (it won't stay up long!). Not sure if you can really see much but you can get an idea of the dress .

hope it works...

Faddy, you look absolutely beautiful

Thank you very much tethers

Are you anywhere near Gloucester op?

Just that last week I bought a blush pink dress from the ghost shop in the designer outlet for 40 quid reduced from 220. I am not even going to a wedding! Just bought it because it's so lovely. Might be worth buying one for that price and dyeing it to see.

I love the bhldn website and would get dress & shoes from there if I ever got married again (not that I plan to!)

I love this.

No, not near Gloucester, no, but there are outlets dotted about so could be a thought.

The bhldn site is gorgeous! So many beautiful dresses. And shoes.

Faddy thank you for the photos. You look radiant. It's lovely to see the reality of a bride in a pretty colour.

Thanks ruby. On the colour thing: if your friend wants to feel bridal even though she's not wearing white, hair accessories can really help with this. She's probably got something in mind anyway, I think most people go for some kind of hair accessories these days!

The two Etsy shops I dealt with were:Migonne Handmade, where I got my halo hairpiece thing, and Whichgoose, who does gorgeous flower crowns. I ordered a flower crown first and though I loved it it didn't go as well with the dress.

Agree that the bhldn site is to die for! Like emsyj if I was ever getting married again I'd be so tempted to get something from there.

I'm sulking because I missed FaddyPeony's photo .

Oh lord, OK I've made it public again - just for another half hour!

Just gorgeous- thank you
