12 celebrity brides who wore unconventional wedding dresses

The INSIDER Summary:

• Not all celebrity brides are interested in wearing a classic white gown.
• Some brides opt for bright colors and intricate hem lines.
• From Avril Lavigne's black silhoutte to Kaley Cuoco's hot pink dress, these are some of the best unconventional celebrity wedding gowns.

Here comes the bride, all dressed in…well, not white, that’s for sure. While we love a tulled-out ivory wedding gown, we’re not opposed to unconventional dresses in black, pink, or even yellow—and sometimes we might even prefer it. Long are the days of white, white, and more white. There are about a bajillion other colors and silhouettes out there that are a lot more interesting than your run-of-the-mill snow-colored ballgown.

No shade if you like going the traditional route (we all do from the time to time), but for the wild brides out there looking to experiment, you might want to draw inspiration from these 12 celebrity brides who wore uber-unconventional wedding dresses while still stunning down the aisle. See them all, ahead.

What do you expect? Of course the "Complicated" singer was going to wear black to her wedding. The punk-pop star took her wedding's gothic theme to an entirely new level when she walked down the aisle in a stunning black Monique Lhuiller gown to Nickelback frontman Chad Kroeger in July 2013. Though the couple split a year later, at least Lavigne kept it true to her wedding style.

While we hear Solange wore a whopping six (!!!) outfits in the entirety of her wedding to director Alan Ferguson in November 2014, nothing took the cake more than the gown she wore while taking her super-badass wedding photos with her family and bridesmaids. Not only did the dress, which was designed by Humberto Leon, cover her up to her neck, but it also had the coolest twist on a traditional train: a floor-length cape.

Instead of white, the "Glee" actress went nude (for her dress color, that is) when she tied the knot with Mumford & Sons member Winston Marshall in Morocco in October 2016. The sequined chiffon Valentino gown cost her $20,500, but judging from how good she looks, we'll say money well spent.
