This is my last coloured affordable wedding dresses post for a while; next Monday I'll be back to classic white styles, scroll to the bottom of this post to find out the theme.
I think green is a great colour to end on. From deep emerald to cool mint, green opens up a range of options for weddings.
This week's green affordable wedding dresses are inspired by two of Elizabeth Taylor's wedding gowns. She wore the first one to her fourth wedding to Eddie Fisher in 1959.
It's a beautiful deep green and a classic cinched in style that showed off her famously slim waist. Who would have thought a hood would work on a wedding dress?
Liz obviously liked green as she wore it again at her sixth wedding and second one to Richard Burton. Her dress is a light shade of green with a floaty ethereal feel.
These two styles really showcase the versatility of green as a wedding dress colour; it can be classic and elegant or bohemian and floaty.
That's enough about Liz's dresses, which surely cost a fortune. I've gathered together a selection of beautiful green wedding dresses that all have a low price tag. Check them out below.
Nansi in Chiffon - Not On The High Street
This green dress is just stunning. It's actually a bridesmaid's dress by Elliot Claire London, but I think it could definitely be worn as a wedding dress. Plus, you'll only pay a bridesmaid dress price for it.
I love the fitted body with the flowing chiffon skirt. But the best is on the back.
It's got delicate floral embroidery on a sheer base. Simply stunning.
Priced £245
Letitia Gown Mint Dress - Sentani
This is another bridesmaid dress that would make a great green wedding dress. It's from Australian company Sentani (they ship to the UK) and is a barely there shade of mint. It's ideal if you want a subtle touch of colour but still want a traditional look.
It's a classic style with a lace bodice and silk chiffon skirt. I love the capped sleeves.
Priced AU$ 399.95
Vintage 60s Green Goddess Gown - Etsy
This is a genuine vintage 60s dress from Etsy seller Dainty Rascal, ideal if you're having a 60s themed wedding and want the real thing. It's an unusual style with light silk chiffon over heavy silk taffeta.
I love the low back and the lace sleeves. It's ideal for a woodland wedding.
Priced £47.65
Emerald Green Taffeta Evening Dress - Etsy
If you want to opt for a short wedding dress in a green shade then this gorgeous emerald dress from Dig For Victory is ideal. It's got a 40s/50s feel and provides an hourglass silouette that's flattering on anyone.
I love the deep green shade and the three-quarter sleeves. It's perfect for a city hall wedding.
Priced £125
Babbs Bib Maxi Dress - SHOPBOP
This beautiful dress is not only a lush shade of green, it also has a feel of the green dress that Keira Knightly wore in Atonement.
The backless dress is a bit like a modern version of the gown. It's a really simple design that lets the colour and the lack of back do the talking.
It would be perfect for a beach or summer wedding.
Priced £262.83
That's all for this week. Next Monday I'll be featuring affordable wedding dresses with a twenties feel. I know I've already done a Gatsby one but I've found some more! It'll be the first in a series of affordable wedding dress posts based on different eras.
Have a good Monday.
