    This is an interesting one dools! Do you want a white/ivory gown? What's your budget?

    Something you could look at doing is bridesmaid dresses that come in a variety of colours per style (there's a few dedicated websites out there) and pick a bridesmaid dress in the style you like then choose to order it in ivory/white. Then to make it bridal on the day, you could look at pairing it with a lace bolero and all your bridal accessories. Simple and beautiful! Good luck x

    Have you thought about grecian style dresses that look elegant but not too princessy? Or an empire line? They'll have these in bridal stores but look online/high street at Coast, Monsoon, BHS and John Lewis :-)

    What style do you like?

    I'm wearing a non-traditional dress but it still looks like a wedding dress - have a look in my albums I've got a sketch uploaded.

    Maybe go for something a bit shorter - a tea length dress? I think they're gorgeous but not as traditional xxx

    I've just put a post of your wall of a dress, not a wedding dress, but long, sparkly and pretty. Something like this?
