Looking for the wedding dress of your dreams can be a challenge. Not only do you need to take into account fashions, your body shape and prices but you also want your wedding dress to be unique. In their search for uniqueness some brides end up with some astonishing dresses that remain in our memory for years, while others unfortunately end up with some major wedding dress disasters.

Here you will find a photo gallery of some unusual, but unique wedding dresses that I found online. Some are incredibly romantic while others are super sexy bordering on the tacky side, others are just plain ridiculous. I’ll leave it to you to judge these dresses. Personally I think that if the bride was happy wearing the dress, and it made her feel unique, then it was all worth it, after all, who are we to judge and make fun of someone else’s taste?

Unusual colour: Dita Von Teese on her wedding day.


Romantic wedding dresses

These romantic wedding gowns are unusual as they are not seen very often. They are designed for the slim and tall bride. They would be perfect for a Castle wedding or for an elegant garden wedding.

The prices start at £2000.

Designer Wedding dresses

In Spain Agatha Ruiz de la Prada always surprises people with her colourful designs.  Wedding dresses are not an exception and her bridal collection includes bright yellows and lots of texture.

But a designer wedding gown is not always a security card for success or elegance.  Some designers have some funny ideas about wedding attire and if you are not careful you might finish looking like a bride from the Mars attacks film.

Yummy wedding dress

The actual French "wedding cake" the Croquenbouche

Good enough to eat


In a previous article I wrote that the traditional wedding cake is not really a cake but an assembly of little puff pastries called the croquenbouche. It looks like the croquenbouche can also be made into a very original wedding dress. At least your guest will be right in saying that you were good enough to be eaten!



Sexy Wedding dresses


Sexy does not always go hand in hand with a white wedding gown. What do you think about these extreme wedding dresses?

I'm speechless, except I really like the first one best! That's my color, alright.

did these weddings push through or did gossiping of the guests or the fainting of the priests got in the way? LOL

I actually looked at a similar dress to the American one for my wedding. The hubby was standing behind me when I opened this, and he voiced his favorites, of course. Can you imagine?????

Good grief. And I thought my sister-in-law was daring for getting married in red.

Great hub!  I went from OMG to HOLY COW!  How on EARTH did she keep "the girls" hoisted through the wedding and reception? Truly a marvel of modern engineering! :-)

Hi Pricessa, amazing choices for some brides. Some were very nice and the others; well each to his/her own.

The longest train - that was great.

I like when women have fun. I saw quite a few I liked.

Thanks for this fun fun hub!

I'm not sure what to say, except I wouldn't be caught dead in most of them. What does the bride in the toilet paper dress do if it rains on her wedding day? I think the first gown was very dramatic.

This is a very interesting hub, Princessa. I'm still shaking my head over a few of them, though.

princessa - fab hub, love it!

dink - it's called 'fashion tape' or 'wardrobe tape' or any number of other things depending on where you get it and what brand it is. The basic idea is that you stick one side of the tape to the fabric and the other side to your skin in the location you wish your clothing to stay.

And, I imagine, hope like mad it'll stay there (-:Great hub - and a lot of dresses I wouldn't wear in a million years!

Well, some of these should be mandatory for the bride's maids. For myself, can I borrow the one with the long train? After the ceremony, we can hand it up like a tent and have the reception under there. Fun hub, and sexy too!

Wow a great hub indeed, talk about out of the box imaginary dressses.. I wore red on my wedding day as it is considered auspicious here in india. What a lovely collection of dresses here, some of them really had guts to wear them to the altar. kudos to woman power, i feel they all followed their heart and to that hats off!!

Patty : that first one wore by Dita Von Teese on her actual wedding ceremony is amazing. Me too, I love the colour it goes wonderful with her more than white complexion.

Cris: Nothing gets on the way of a bride, specially one with the guts to wear these dresses! LOL

Proud Mom: Were you prepared to wear the “American bride” dress?

Teresa: She was daring! I actually love red wedding dresses and they suppose to bring good luck in some cultures.

Druneric: feel free to share

Dink96: indeed a marvel of modern engineering!

Laringo: Yes, some are really nice, others are just plain outrageous, but like they say here: “chacun a son gout”

Bkcreative: These are dresses that will remain in the memory of the wedding guests for a long long time.

Oh, my. Some of these are......... Though a few were not too bad.

Princessa profile image

Princessa  says:

Shirley and LondonGirl: I admire these women for wearing those dresses; it requires courage and self confidence plus a big dose of craziness to wear them. There are some of them that I would definitely not wear like the newspaper or toilet paper dress (like you said Shirley, what if it rains) or the zombie ones –I think that would scare the groom and guests! . But I would definitely wear some of them like the one worn by Dita or the ones on the Romantic collection.

Rainbow and BrianS: Glad you enjoyed it.

Christoph: I bet you want to be invited to the wedding now, specially if the reception is held under the bride's train LOL

charanjeet kaur : I love red wedding dresses. Both Indian and Chinese wedding dresses are lovely. I agree with you, a big thumbs up to "women power" for wearing what they want without complexes.

RGraf: thanks for stopping to comment.

i really did want to wear that dress, princessa!!  We couldn't get it in time for the wedding, though.  My hubby is the #1 Dallas Cowboys fan, so we opted for a Cowboys wedding, instead.  I wore traditional white, but all the guys wore Dallas Cowboys attire.  Except my dad.  He refused.

Imagine that... LOL YOu are right Princessa, I guess each bride has their own unique idea on how they want to look like on their wedding day. I'm still smiling with disbelief though...imagine all that! LOL

Princessa profile image

Princessa  says:

Proud Mom: A cowboy wedding must be fun and an American bride dress would have been super original. Maybe for a future wedding anniversary? My mom celebrated her 25th wedding anniversary with a big party and a church ceremony, it was just like a wedding.

Ripplemaker: some of the dresses are a bit over the top, but they will make sure that you never get invited to some else’s wedding LOL

There do seem to be, in general, a lot of strapless wedding dresses out there. It's a shame, because they aren't very flattering on most women.

I think that when my daughter gets married, I would prefer she wears one of the traditional dresses! Who knows if I get my wish! Thanks for the enlightening hub!

LondonGirl: yeap, whatever one chooses to wear it is important to take into account your body shape and what suits you best.

k@ri: There are many traditional dresses that are beautiful, but I must admit that I prefer something original that no other bride had. Thanks for commenting :)

A big WOW to the barely there wedding dresses. I mean okay so you might not be 100% truthful by wearing white, but is it essential to come right out and scream it?!

i love purple vivienna westwood dress that is the one am going to wear for my wedding a cant wait to go try it on.

some of the dresses where abit out there i wouldnt wear a wedding dress thats got hardl any thing to it but they were good fun to look at all these dresses.

the on with the long train that had to be heavy to wear when walking with it i think it was pointless why its got no use and just looks rediculase.

i was hoiping for some with more colour for ideas really for my alice in wonder land themed wedding

Certainly not cheap money wise (maybe cheap to your taste) but I assure you that most of the above dresses are worth a fortune!
