Martha, Meet Grace Kelly
September 24th, 2008 @ 2:08 pm by Mrs. Shortcake
I’m going to have a really, really hard time letting go of MS Weddings magazine after our wedding.
The image above completely takes my breath away—blue? BLUE? Nobody told me my dress could be my something blue!
The draping on this gown is something else as well—and hello—is that a triple strand pearl necklace I see? (P.S.—if you like those baubles, check out these at White Aisle)
See more ridiculously good looking gowns here!
Are there any colored gown brides out there? What does your dress look like?

This is why I try to stay away from magazines. Thank goodness that dress has such a high price tag that second-guessing my gown will never amount to anything. 
Hi, I’ve just recently discovered weddingbee and I’m still trying to figure it all out. But I’m planning on having a colored dress. Royal Blue or something like that. I just don’t look good in the lighter colors.
Very pretty! Your “ridiculously good looking” comment made me giggle and think of Zoolander… too funny.
My dress is Pronovias and it is gold! I love it because it is different!
my mom wore a subtle blue wedding dress. i always thought that was a lovely idea!
My dress was blush pink!
Ohhh that dress is the one I brought with me shopping as my dream gown… except I wanted something like it in ivory. I ended up getting something drastically different in the end, but I still swoon over that picture…
I’ll be wearing a blush pink dress too!
I’ll be wearing a red Maggie dress, but I love that one (in my dreams!) and would love a pink one, but since it’s a December wedding, red it is
omg i teared up when i saw this dress in the magazine i ripped it out and told my mom “this is it” lol. unfortunatly i cant afford it, i was thinking about getting it made but i dont know any wedding dress seamstresses in new york =[
Mine is a soft of blush too! They call it champagne but its not like any other champagne I’ve seen… I call it “shell” because it reminds me of the inside of a sea shell. The last time I stepped in to the dress store, I was greeted by the owner with “You know what? I was telling somebody about your dress and I call you my ‘peach bride.’”
Oh SOOO PRETTY! That was the kind of dress I looked and looked for but never found. Dont get me wrong I loved my dress but that dress is exactly what I wanted! I think I know why I never found it though my buget was less than 1/6 of what that dress cost so I am guessing it’s just a bit beyond the price range I had. :)And I totally agree MS weddings rocks, one of the few wedding mags I really liked
mine has a red sash! we’re getting married right before christmas so i thought it would be a nice touch.
that neckline…have mercy. i wanted an off-the-shoulder gown sooo bad but actually had a hard time finding one to even try on! elizabeth filmore has a gorgeous blue dress too.
Yay! My wedding dress was pale blue, too. I had my custom made and I’m so glad that I did. The dress was a little untraditional, in general - we did a 18th century Scottish theme.

That dress is just yummy.
