No colored gowns for me

I've been looking at wedding gowns again, especially since I decided to start my serious shopping in late summer.....

and I've firmly decided against having a color-accented gown. I'd rather our colors show up in the atmosphere, not on me directly! The more I thought about it, deep purple and sapphire blue are heavy, dark shades. I want myself to look light and airy!

My 'maids will either be wearing purple or blue, and the reception may have purple uplighting(I think Will still likes that idea).  There'll be a lot of those colors floating around as it is. So..the Alfred Angelo gowns have been removed from my notebook, but I'm still left with plenty of other options. 

I want to wear some color, though...it'll just show up in my garter(yay, Auburn!) and perhaps my shoes, so I can wear them again. Isn't it funny how tastes can change so much? Such is life...and this purchase is one I really want to be happy with! So...no more color accent ideas for the gown itself. And I'm fine with that.
