Gold wedding dresses are rising in popularity this season, and we're definitely on board with the trend.
While white and cream wedding dresses are time-honored, we're seeing that embellishing your dress with a pop of gold will add a luxe edge to your look while still complimenting nearly every color scheme. You could even ditch the ivory altogether and opt for an inimitable look in an all-gold gown.
