We think all brides should feel free to wear whatever they want on their wedding day. Dying to wear a jumpsuit? Go for it! Considering a short dress? Go for it! Contemplating wearing a colorful wedding dress? You know what our answer to that is! While white will forever be classic and beautiful, there's something undeniable about the appeal of an unexpected hue in a sea of ivory, cream, and eggshell. And while blush is fast becoming the new take on the white gown, there are many other colors out there to choose from.

For brides who only want a hint of color, consider shades of soft grey and lilac, for those who want to make a statement, experiment with bold punchy colors like emerald green, red and even bright pink.

Whether you're having a black-tie or casual wedding, we've rounded up the best colorful wedding dresses fit for every style, vibe and color palette.
