Many a bride-to-be chooses a colorful wedding dress to break all traditions and stand out. And colored wedding dresses are really extremely impressive. The sunny yellow in particular is a big favorite and can be chosen in a strong shade as well as in a pastel tone or just as an accent in a white dress. Even if the selection of dresses in yellow, or in any color at all, is not nearly as large as white models or champagne, one can still say that it is large enough. Nevertheless, we recommend starting your search in good time if you want to choose the wedding dress in yellow. Today we will show you some attractive models to convince you of the idea. Check out the different options for models and shades and learn how to combine the yellow wedding dress with other colors.
The meaning of color
Yellow is happy, yellow is cheerful, yellow is calm. The many positive properties of this color were already described by Goethe. And the happy mood that the yellow wedding dress exudes is guaranteed to be transmitted not only to you, but also to all the guests present. That's one more reason to choose this dress color. However, there are also claims that the yellow color has a rather negative effect on the future marriage when chosen for the wedding dress. The marriage should only last 6 years and be characterized by numerous arguments and tears. Whether you believe this is your decision. But we believe that such a great color can neither be negative nor have an impact on a relationship.
As with all other colors, yellow comes in a wide variety of shades. Accordingly, the wedding dress in yellow is also offered in a wide variety of shades. Which one is right depends, among other things, on the wedding theme in general, but also on the effect you want to achieve. A nice advantage of the color yellow for the wedding dress is that it makes the skin shimmer and highlight. Of course that also has an impactthe wedding photospositive. Below we have put together a few variants for you.
Strong yellow
Even though yellow in itself is not really an aggressive or intrusive color, few brides who are looking for a yellow wedding dress dare to choose this somewhat bolder color. It is particularly suitable if not only the wedding reception but also the wedding dress should be pompous. Yellow as an alternative to classic white is already an eye-catcher, but with a strong nuance such as sunny yellow, lemon yellow or mustard yellow, guests are guaranteed to be amazed.
Pale yellow tones
If you don't want the difference to classic white to be that big, choose pastel yellow. Here too, there are of course different variants, because even a pale color can be a little stronger or not. For example, vanilla is very popular for yellow wedding dresses, but can also be chosen as an accent for a bright yellow dress. Pale yellow is generally more delicate and feminine, almost girlish and very romantic.
Golden yellow
A golden yellow wedding dress exudes a touch of elegance. It is a strong color towards dark yellow. This color works particularly well if a shiny fabric is also used for the wedding dress. You can emphasize the elegance by choosing a figure-hugging wedding dress. But the color also looks extremely attractive on wide models. Feel like a queen on your wedding day!Gold and golden yellowIn addition to elegance, they also radiate a certain maturity and appear ladylike.
Neongelb
For the very brave among you, the bright neon yellow is suitable. Admittedly, it's not for everyone, but some brides want to go all out and break all the rules. Then neon is exactly the right choice. The entire dress can be chosen in neon yellow. But this bright color also works very well as an accent in the middle of a simpler color. With hair accessories in the same color, you can give your bridal look the finishing touch.
Yellow as an accent
We have already mentioned that yellow can also just be used as an accent. For example, just the hem of the dress can be yellow, or you can choose a classic wedding dress in white and tie a yellow bow or belt around your hips. The ombre effect, in which white gradually turns into yellow, is also very chic. A beautiful example of wedding dresses with the color yellow as an accent are the models from Vera Wang, in which the yellow tone was combined with a beige or cream-colored fabric.
Ideas for combining with other colors
Strong yellow combines wonderfully with vanilla. All shades of yellow go well with gold, so a yellow wedding dress tolerates gold embroidery and other decorations very well. Of course, contrasts can also be chosen to create an interesting outfit. Red and yellow, for example, are a great combination, where red can be chosen for the bridal bouquet or for the shoes. But yellow and purple also look attractive. Brown and yellow also go together, as do other shades of brown, as is the case with Vera Wang's dresses. All of the colors mentioned can be an accent as well as the main color to the accent color yellow or can be used as a second color to the yellow tone.
The groom can wear a blue suit as well as a brown or black suit if you choose a yellow wedding dress. Blue-gray is also suitable and, like blue, provides an interesting contrast to the bride's outfit, while brown or beige complement the yellow dress. Black is a neutral color and is therefore a good option to show off the yellow dress even more.
