I love blue.  It’s my favorite color (red comes in a close second, but blue has the lead).  I didn’t set out to buy a blue wedding dress, but I put on my dress, and my skin seemed to lighten up and glow and my eyes turned a bright green.  The difference between sallow me in a white or ivory dress and glowing, elegant me in my marine blue silk dress was undeniable.  Blue it is.

And in honor of my blue dress (a Teri Jon marine blue silk chiffon with floral appliques under the bust) I present this Ode to the Blue Wedding Dress.  Now if only I could find a pair of shoes I like.

If I were looking for a princess gown, I would want something like this dress Kiera Knightly is wearing:

But I look better in darker colors, like Rachel Weisz’s look here:

I love this blue dress, worn by a bride in an intimate San Francisco rooftop wedding:

This dress is similar to mine. 

I love this New York City Hall wedding with the vintage feeling short blue dress:
