When it comes to wedding dresses, so many brides come in thinking, “Well, white is the only option, right?” But that’s so far from the case! Bridal gowns come in a variety of hues that each have their own distinctive look. It might seem like there isn’t a huge difference between some of them, but choosing an off-white gown over an ivory dress can actually make an impact on how your photos turn out or how the gown looks on your skin tone.
For today’s blog, we’re going to cover some popular shade options for wedding dresses that you can find here at SImply Blush Bridal!
Ivory Wedding Dresses
Ivory is by far the most traditional alternative to a pure white wedding dress, and it’s one of the most selected colors for bridal gowns. It’s universally flattering and has warmer undertones, appearing as a soft white in photographs. It’s great if you want to avoid a wedding dress that’s too stark white; plus, it enhances the texture of fabrics like satin and lace wedding dresses.

Champagne/Blush Wedding Dresses
A blush or champagne wedding dress is a gown that has either golden or pink undertones and is a stunning choice for brides who crave something sophisticated yet less traditional than a white bridal gown. It’s a subtle, elegant alternative. You can even opt for a wedding dress that has a neutral underlay that offers extra warmth to the look.

If you want a classic white wedding dress but with a unique touch, this is the perfect style for you. It’s a non-traditional choice that makes a bold statement while remaining whimsical enough for a bohemian garden wedding.

Off-White Wedding Dresses
This is a shade right between white and ivory, offering a more muted version of pure white for a wedding dress. It’s less bright but doesn’t have the same warmth of a pure ivory bridal gown, making it a versatile and understated option.
