WHY DOES THE BRIDE WEAR WHITE?
By admin on Mar 16, 2008 | In Wedding Traditions
In Colonial times a bride often wore her "Sunday Best" to her
wedding. It was not until the 1840's, when Queen Victoria was married
in a white wedding gown, that "white gowns" became the rage.
White is also a symbol of affluence, purity, and joy. Today, brides choose
many shades of white, from bright white to champagne.
