It is a moment of absolute magic when the bride walks down the aisle showing off the wedding dress for the first time. At that moment, everyone is gasping with amazement, admiring the beauty of the bride and her dress.

The white wedding dress has become a tradition specifically at a Christian wedding. However, people of different cultures wear all kinds of wedding dresses in various colours. Even in the past, wedding dresses were not always white. They could be of any colour for example blue was a preferred colour representing purity and piety of the bride and even black was common. Green however was considered unlucky and wasn’t used as a wedding dress colour.

Nowadays, weddings are supposed to be about love and an eternal bond between the bride and groom whereas historically, weddings were merely a way of uniting two families to maintain power and influence among others. Hence the dress was also chosen to show off the wealth and capital of the bride’s family. All this changed in the Victorian era with Queen Victoria’s white lace wedding dress. People designed their wedding dresses after hers and later the trend caught on.
