I am looking for a wedding dress that is white but fades into royal blue. Anyone know who or where I can find someone to do that? I am having no luck searching myself. (either a dress that is already done or dye my dress.)

I got the idea from Gwen Stefani's wedding dress.

I'd probably go with the sash idea first, It's a pretty look.

This gown comes in blue and white - not exactly what you're looking for but it might work:

You could also do mix and match separates, but I don't think that's a great look:

If you wanted to get imaginative, you could do an overlay over your gown:

I would NOT fool around with trying to dye your gown - there's a good chance you'd end up ruining it.

I haven't seen anything like that. I would not recommend dying a dress...chances are it will end up ruined or not what you had in mind. And lets face it...wedding dresses aren't cheap enough to use as craft experiments. Instead of a fade, why not get a sash in the royal blue color? David's Bridal has a dress that has a sash like that. Style T8778. Good luck!
I found another dress.

Something like that has to be custom made. Why don't you consider looking for fabric and for designs for the dress? Then you can see if you can get it custom made for you. It really shouldn't be that expensive.
Also look at bridesmaids, special occasions, and prom dresses. Most traditional "bridal" gowns are white or ivory. Perhaps gold. You aren't going to be likely to find anything that is a "wedding" gown but try just evening gowns. There is no rule saying you have to wear a wedding gown for a wedding. Especially one non-traditional like yours!

Why don't you like ivory? I think ivory goes better (on most skin tones) than white. Perhaps she chose ivory because it was her second marriage, but many brides (my 80-year old mother included who was married 56 years ago!) choose ivory for their FIRST marriage! Ivory is in the "white family." But, in any case, NO, I would not try to bleach/dye a wedding dress.

you might not find it in a wedding dress but you might be able to find what you are looking for in a prom dress.

my friend said davids bridal could dye the bridesmaid's dresses, so I wonder why they couldnt do your dress.
