An All White Wedding?

There is a new hype-all of the bridesmaids along with the bride, sporting white dresses.

There are two sides to this, as every fashion statement has...

1.) White is for the bride, it's the traditional way and everyone else should wear something other than white so that the bride's thunder isn't stolen.

2.) When all of the bridesmaids are in white dresses, it shows the bride is secure enough to know that this is her day, she's with the people that care,  and that is all that matters.

I like both statements. I have seen many different colors at weddings but never bridesmaids wearing white dresses too! I am open to new ideas and open to the bride showing her family this day is special and she doesn't need all the attention, but I think all white dresses are too extreme. I think alternating every other bridesmaid dress with white would be an interesting twist and a nice accent touch to the altar, but it wouldn't be my first choice. When I think about altars during weddings, I think about colors and smiles from your closest friends accenting the two main people, whom we all came to see becoming man and wife.

I am all about great photos for a great day and I think that too much white washes out the photos. Colors make the picture come to life. It makes it look more elegant and they pop out at you so much more than if you were to have ALL white. What do you think?
