Alternative Wedding Dresses: Gothic Wedding Dresses
There is no need for a Gothic wedding dress to be black! If your wedding theme is gothic, so many of your other decorations are going to be black, that you’ll need a color that will make your wedding dress stand out.
- Colors Of A Gothic Theme:
Black, purple and deep crimson red are the classic colors that are associated with gothic clothing. If your wedding has a gothic theme you will probably want your groom to dress in black with blood-red trim. A black velvet-effect waistcoat with bone clasps over a white or red ruffed shirt can look stunning.
- Your Gothic Wedding Dress:
As far as your wedding dress is concerned, remember that in traditional 19th-century gothic literature the story always revolved around the pure and innocent girl with a passionate streak, seduced by or sacrificed to the dark master of the castle with the bite that drew blood. A sensual Victorian-style white or ivory gothic wedding dress can be very sexy and visually stunning. You can have a beautiful wedding dress and still keep to your gothic theme. Choose one with flowing long sleeves, a high neck and lots of lace and tulle for the full sacrificial effect.
As gothic themed weddings are mostly held in winter and around Halloween, you can usually take it for granted that it will not be too hot, especially as evening approaches. If you are going to change out of your wedding dress, especially for the evening, you can take your theme along and go for a Morticia-style black satin dress with hanging sleeves, or you may consider a medieval-style dress in purple or red, you may even go for a gothic boned corset in black or crimson. It fits the theme for you and your groom to be dressed more alike now that you are married and you can change your make-up and hairstyle to give you the vamp look. This is where you can really bring in the fun part of your gothic theme.
Remember that your jewellery is an important part of your theme. This is one aspect of your costume that can transfer, effortlessly, from the daytime into the evening, and if you choose ”dark side“ jewellery that will go well with both dresses you can create a link that also has a deep symbolic and sensual meaning. Slave or maille bracelets and choker necklaces are ideal and will put the finishing touches on your wedding day look. If your wedding dress has a very high neckline, you will, of course, only be able to wear a chocker with your evening dress once you change.
One of the best things about having a gothic wedding is that your photographs will be amazing, so take the time to make the most of that by considering how your dress or dresses will look beside your groom's outfit so that the two of you make the most of every similarity and contrast that you have. Individuality is the key here and you will find plenty of ideas are sparked by all of the gothic wedding dresses that you will find online.
Remember, if you are going for the gothic theme, go all out for it. Your dress is only the starting point for a lot of fun with your theme. Surf the net for fun and original decorating ideas and make the most of the combined image of your clothes and your decorations.
Have fun with your gothic wedding!
