White Wedding Dress For A Beautiful Bride
By Natalie Glass
When most little girls daydream about their wedding
day, they conjures up a mental image of walking down
the aisle to their awaiting groom in a beautiful white
wedding dress that will flow and billow all around her.
Indeed, it seems that wearing a bridal dress fashioned
from a pristine white fabric is a venerable tradition
that goes back almost as far in the history of civilization
as the wedding ceremony itself.
But, not every little girl, or woman about to be a
bride herself thinks only about a white, dream wedding
dress. In fact, many question why it is that the white
bridal dress is such a strong and deep tradition and
wonder where that tradition comes from in the first
place.

The Tradition Of Wearing A White Wedding Dress
While looking at the subject from today’s perspective
it might not seem possible, but the truth is that brides
have not always been clothed in white for their nuptials.
The exact time when the tradition of wearing a white
wedding dress does not even seem to be known with certainty,
and since it is such a long-held tradition, it appears
to be a practice that has always been the custom.
Perhaps one reason why the tradition of white wedding
dresses is so strongly ingrained in society today is
because, since the era of photography, it seems that
the perfect wedding dress has always been captured in
images of white. Since we don’t have photographs of
weddings of long bygone eras, the tendency is for people
to leap to the assumption that wedding dresses have
always been white.
A Bride With A Purity Of Mind
But, there is more than just assumption when it comes
to the tradition surrounding white wedding dresses.
It is well-known that white symbolizes virtue and purity.
Wearing a white bridal dress carries a strong symbolism
of a bride coming into a marriage with that purity of
mind and heart in making a commitment to her groom.
Another aspect of the tradition of wearing white wedding
dresses can be traced back to the early 1800’s in England,
when a member of the British Monarchy was married in
white. This was a display of wealth, position and style
which others classes wanted to emulate as well.
Wedding Gown With Spotless White Fabric
In that day and age, wearing a wedding gown in a spotless
white fabric was a display of wealth and position, in
part because it was considered so extravagant at that
time to have a dress made that the bride would never
wear again. In those days, once a white dress was soiled
it was rendered unwearable, especially for the upper
class.
The truth of the matter is that in diverse areas across
the globe, a white wedding dress would not even be one
of the options for a new bride. Indeed, it seems this
is primarily a part of western society. In other lands
and cultures it is often felt that the true celebration
and excitement of the wedding should be reflected in
the bright and vibrant colors of the bride’s attire.
