THE ORIGIN OF THE WHITE WEDDING DRESS

Wedding gowns have not always been elaborate, as many are today. In 1840, Queen Victoria's pure white gown started the trend that many women follow today. Her choice had a far-reaching impact that even she couldn't foreseen. After her wedding, white not only became the official color for brides-to-be but it also became a symbol of wealth, as a few women could afford an elaborate white dress that couldn't easily be reused.

In the past, the white gown also carried with it the connotation of purity. These days, the white wedding gown has become a symbol of joy and celebration. Not to mention that this has changed. Many second-time brides are now choosing to wear white wedding gowns.
