So, I’ve been dreaming about this maroon wedding gown for a while now, and I finally decided to go for it. I mean, who says you have to wear white on your big day, right? Red is my color, and I wanted something bold and unique. Let me tell you, finding the perfect maroon gown was a whole adventure!

First, I hit up all the usual online stores. I scrolled through pages and pages of dresses on sites like Lulus, Shopkund, and Nordstrom. They had some pretty options, but nothing that really screamed “me.” I mean there are so many dresses online from websites such as shopkund, Lulus, etc.
Then, I started digging deeper. I found this website called alinanova that specializes in non-traditional wedding dresses. They had a whole section of maroon and burgundy gowns! I pored over the different styles – ballgowns, A-line, mermaid, you name it. Each one was beautiful, but I still hadn’t found “the one.”
- I even checked out places like Anthropologie and Abercrombie & Fitch, just to cover all my bases.
- Anthropologie had some really romantic stuff, but it wasn’t quite what I was looking for.
- And Abercrombie & Fitch, well, they’re great for casual wear, but their wedding dress selection was a bit limited.
Feeling a bit discouraged, I almost gave up. But then, I stumbled upon BHLDN. Oh. My. Goodness. Their in-house collection is just stunning. They had these gorgeous maroon gowns with intricate lace and beading. I was immediately drawn to this one A-line dress with delicate lace details and a flowing tulle skirt. It was elegant, romantic, and just the right amount of dramatic.
Before I made my final decision, I read all the reviews and compared the shipping times and return policies. Everything seemed legit, so I took the plunge and ordered it!
The Big Reveal
When the dress finally arrived, I was so excited I could barely breathe! I carefully unpacked it and slipped it on. It fit like a glove! The color was even more beautiful in person, and the details were just exquisite. I twirled around in front of the mirror, feeling like a total queen. This was it. This was my dress.
I can’t wait to walk down the aisle in this beauty. It’s everything I ever wanted and more. I know some people might think a maroon wedding dress is a bit out there, but I don’t care. It’s my day, and I’m going to rock it in a dress that makes me feel confident, beautiful, and totally myself.
