We're starting off our colored wedding dress with some gray and blue tone inspiration by Michele Beckwith Photography and Kyla Gold Weddings pictured above. Two doses of femininity surely makes for a delicate and remarkable coastal editorial, providing tons of inspiration for your bridal session. The Ivy and Aster (on the right) and Watters Wtoo (on the left) gowns are perfect for a Summer wedding...
This gorgeous inspiration shoot above by Wedding Sparrow favorite, Marie Film Photographer, is romantic, ethereal, and enchanting. The unique and stunning Cinobi Cinobi gown mixed with the remarkable Greek backdrop created this dreamlike state.
Another beautiful pale blue embellished gown is this Jenny Packham number with a crystal bodice and this AMAZING Marchesa number with flutter sleeves.
We cannot get enough of this truly amazing MXM Couture gown, pictured above. Such a delicately embellished dress yet completely showstopping at the same time - we're in awe of this gown photographed by Feather & Stone Photography.
This gown from Alexandra Grecco was one of our most liked images on Instagram of all time and it just shows y'all have great taste. Head here to purchase yours.
A similar beauty with some sparkle is this dreamy Reem Acra gown in pale blue that we have all the heart eyes for!
Pictured above is something slightly moodier, sexier, and definitely more unique. We adore this dark Leanne Marshall number with sheer panels and short sleeves. Would you rock something so sheer? Image taken by Brumley & Wells...
Above is a blush beauty by dress designer Carol Hannah (who we adore!). Blush is often a perfect choice for a bride who desires a colored dress, but wants to still feel quite bridal. We love this image by Jose Villa...
This latest collection from Emily Riggs: Nouveau Renaissance is full of intricately detailed dresses using only haute couture fabrics, such as hand beaded French laces and Italian embroidered tulles. We heart this stunning blue toned sheer gown photographed by Corbin Gurkin.
This blush toned gown from Samuelle Couture is even more stunning in the flesh. We were honored to see it in action at this editorial with Taylor & Porter and Pearl & Godiva recently...
Above is a crazy beautiful mauve gown with all the details and appliqué designs. We've been big fans of wedding dress designer Alexandra Grecco for some time now. Known for their feminine designs, dainty frills, floral-inspired embroideries, and detailed laces, head to their website to see more...
Today we're inspired by this absolutely heart stopping blue patterned gown by Jennifer Gifford that feels like a formal ball gown, rather than a traditional wedding dress.
Accompanied by natural hair and makeup by Jess Wilcox, this bride looks daring and sweet all at the same time. Beyond the dress, we love the neutral florals by Wedding Sparrow favorite Amy Osaba in these lovely photos by Shannon Von Eschen.

Above: Valentino - need we say more? Metallics made a show-stopping appearance at New York Fashion Week and we're all for a bride in some shimmer and sparkle. We also adore this sequin wrap dress by Valentino and this gold floral embellished Valentino gown.
If you're loving the sleeved embellished designs, we also love this short sleeve Jenny Packham gown in blush that looks quite similar (with a lower price tag!).
Our dreams were full of Elie Saab gowns recently after seeing Fine Art Curation member Greg Finck's adventure to their latest collection in Paris. Le sigh...
