As the old adage goes, rules were made to be broken. Though cliché, this saying rings true for a number of seemingly rigid wedding traditions. In reality, these rules are more guidelines than anything else.
The first, and probably most widely contested rule, is that the bride must wear white on the day of her nuptials. Modern brides know they have many more options, such as ivory, blush, or even a patterned gown. Still in search of your “something blue”? Make it your dress, like the stunning Oscar de la Renta number pictured below. In a fusion of traditional lace and a contemporary color and silhouette, this choice has the potential to strike many a bride’s fancy.
