Would it be approptiate to have an ALL white wedding everyone wearing white?

I am thinking that it would be wonderful to have an all white wedding. This includes white dresses for bridesmaids, white flowers, etc. Is this okay or is the tradition that only the bride wears white still holding true even today?

Would it be approptiate to have an ALL white wedding everyone wearing white?
I say go for it. So what if it's not traditional? I kind of love that idea. ALLLLL white or would you have have some bold accent color?

If a person can have a STAR WARS wedding, or an underwater wedding, or dance the THRILLER dance at the wedding, why can't YOU have an all WHITE wedding?
Reply:There's not really such a thing as 'appropriate' any more. At one time, the idea of bridesmaids wearing black was considered horrifying. It's pretty common now.



White is definitely unusual but it is not inappropriate. Who knows? You could start a new trend!
Reply:you can do whatever you want for your wedding....there are no rules as to what people HAVE to wear...i think that would be awesome seeing as how not many people do that so it would be cool and might start a new trend
Reply:ummm i guess its okay but u should tell your wife first cuz she may want to be the only one wearing white
Reply:my cousin and his wife had an all white wedding - the men in white tuxes the girls in white gowns and flowers in all white. the bride and groom looked the same as everyone else, in fact it was difficult to tell who was who when they all had white on.

all white attire is not my favourite - i think there is nothing sexier than a man in a black tux! i also think the bride should stand out in the wedding party - hence her wearing white and everyone else in colors.

whatever you choose have a great wedding.
Reply:I have heard of those. THe bride is supposed to stand out, but you still will even if veryone else is wearing white. If you love the idea, go for it.



You cannot tell people what to wear though. YOu can let them know what it is (I think there are a few terms though I don't know them), but it is up to them. White isn't hard to get so people will probably do it.
Reply:I agree, it's your wedding and you shouldn't worry about traditions. The all white wedding is very modern and creative. However, the bride will not stand out as much if the entire party is wearing white. I say go for it unless that's an issue for her.
Reply:If you all want to look like floating heads in photos then go for it.



I do not like all white weddings. The photos are boring and very non descript.



If the all white wedding is done wrong or not well then it looks like a bad prom exploded.



I hate to be the dissenting vote, but there would be nothing to distinguish you from anyone else. There are ways to be unique and creative an still pull of a spectacular event.



If you want to incorporate white, why not have the guys wear white dinner jackets? That would look much better than white tuxs.
Reply:I think it is your wedding and any color is fine. My wedding dress was black. Its just a color why do people make an issue of it?
Reply:You know what that is not a bad idea!! The only down fall would be peoples skin tone doesnt always work with white and lot of women think "white makes me look fat"...not to mention the billy idol song "white wedding"
Reply:I think that sounds pretty cool. Not sure about the pictures though. Would they look boring? or beautiful? If you want a little color, you could pick bridesmaids dresses that are white with a colored trim.
Reply:well tradition does say that only the braid can wear white that way she is the focus. if everyone is wearing white how will you be noticed? but if that's what you want talk to you fiance and see if he agree's then go for it.
Reply:Traditions are meant to be broken. By all means - if you want an all white wedding - go for it.
Reply:if thats what you want then go for it
Reply:You are going to blend into your wedding photos and not stand out at all.
Reply:"Tradition" is relative - in some cultures, the bride doesn't even wear white.



It's your wedding, so you're allowed to choose whichever colors you like. People might comment that it's untraditional, but it's your special day, so do what makes you the happiest.
Reply:I think it would be beneficial to have some sort of accent color instead of just white. Even if it was just something subtle like silver or a pale pastel. An accent would add texture.
Reply:That would be perfectly fine! I have seen couples do this, and it can look lovely. Very simple and sweet.



If the bride's wedding dress is considerably fancier than those of her attendants, then she will still stand out. If you want to do this, I would probably suggest putting the bridesmaids in cocktail-length or tea-length simple dresses and the bride in a floor-length dress with some crystals or beadwork.



I'm not sure how you would make the groom stand out if all the men wore white tuxes. Maybe he could have a special boutonniere, a different vest and tie, or a tuxedo in a fancier style?
Reply:It is traditional that the bride only wears white. However, it is your wedding and you can do what you want when it comes to your wedding. It is your day and you can do whatever you want to do.



The reasoning behind the bride only in white is so that she stands out. You can do what you want. Enjoy your day.
