When it comes to modern day weddings, black is very much considered the new white and thanks to celebrities and designers such as Vera Wang embracing the trend, black wedding gowns have become much more readily available. Once confined to a select few alternative boutiques, bridal gowns created from ebony Wedding Fabrics are now available from the vast majority of high street retailers. Actress Shanae Grimes wore a black Vera Wang gown for her 2013 ceremony to British model Josh Beech. The incredible gown was crafted from traditional Wedding Fabrics such as lace and tulle and featured a lace bodice and full organza skirt set off by a bouquet of stunning bright red roses. Singer Alecia Moore, better known as Pink, is another star who is famous for her edgy sense of style. The renowned tomboy was keen to embrace her feminine side when she married motorcross rider Carey Hart in January 2006 and opted for a surprisingly traditional Monique Lhuillier design for her beach ceremony in Costa Rica crafted from a beautiful cream Wedding Fabric; Pink gave a nod to her famous rock star image with the addition of black sash and pink hi lighted hair whilst the non-traditional couple were barefoot for their fun and relaxed ceremony.
