Blush Pink Wedding Dresses for the Modern Blushing Bride

Surely, Reese Witherspoon was not the first ever woman to wear a blush dress on her wedding day -- I'm sure many women before her wore blush pink wedding dresses! But, Reese was the first high profile woman to have done so, and to much acclaim. So much acclaim, in fact, that Wedding Dresses Magazine just named blush pink wedding dresses among their top 10 Wedding Dresses Trends for Spring 2012 today! Thanks to Reese, it's already a trend now and for the rest of 2011, but by spring 2012, wedding dress retailers will probably have blush pink wedding dresses overflowing the racks as designers and brides become more accustomed to the shade.

To me, the blush wedding dress trend is beautiful. That hint of pink looks just unique enough to keep reactions to a "wow" versus a "whoa." Blush is not only fresh, subtle and pretty, but it is also flattering for the bride. It's just hard to believe that more designers didn't realize the virtues of blush before this year! Blush is certainly a color I would wear for my far-off wedding day, but what are your thoughts on this colored wedding dress trend? Could you see yourself in blush?

If you are getting married this year and want to get on board with this 2012 blush pink wedding dresses trend, here are some beautiful options (under $1,000) that are currently available for you to choose from. Dresses start from under $300 and peak at $780. Tell us your favorite! And, if you are already married, tell us what color your wedding dress was and if you'd choose it again!
