A white wedding dress became popular when Queen Vitoria worn a white gown in 1840. White represents innocence, purity, virginity and is the colour of perfection. 🕊🌼🕊💜

Heartland Old Guy, - I agree. Colors don't really mean anything. They are just colors. Wear what pleases you & the rest of the world & all it's naysayers be damned.

SparkyChaz2018, communist and arranged marriages have nothing to do with each other. Most societies at one time or another have had (and some still do) this type of arrangement.

OnlyMe02, And yet, the most innocent time of our lives - birth - is marked by red. 'White' representing innocence is a (western) human-made construct and has no basis in nature or reality.

White also symbolized wealth. Only a girl With wealthy parents could afford a white dress that would be worn only for that occasion. Usually a girl just wore her best dress

OnlyMe02, It represents that only in the West. In Asia, white is the color of mourning.

BabiKat, Not many want to follow God’s plan for our lives. It would save so much money, trouble, etc.

maggiemylove, I wanted to find a nice red dress, I’ll tell you. But white was my best color. So I gave in. It’s why no one but the bride is supposed to wear white/ivory/cream. So she can shine.

I can't believe my cat just gave birth 😭
Ellija
the bride's gown is red and features an embroidered phoenix.

OnlyMe02, What the white dress really represents is "I am rich enough to buy a ridiculously expensive dress that I will never wear again. in Victoria's case it was true. I married close to 40 years ago, spent $1200 on my dress, which is currently shoved in a pillow case in my attic.

Learned this from a Chinese friend of mine many years ago.

BabiKat: White in Western culture weddings is meant to represent the attributes of the bride. The groom if you must, when considering the wedding in its entirety.

Men have always felt that sexual promiscuity is their right, while simultaneously believing they deserve to marry a virgin. Patriarchal double standards are everywhere. Once you recognize them, they become intolerable.

SFGiantsGirl821, Never say yes if your girlfriend or wife asks, "Honey. Does this outfit make me look fat?" lol

BabiKat, well said!

Klaus , the idea that women need to be "pure" was invented by men for whom it never occurred that women could enjoy sex.
Coco
OnlyMe02, in western culture. In Asian cultures, white represents death.

Neither marriages of initial rush of puppy love nor arranged are the recipe for happy ever after. You can learn another human for years. Marry when you feel ready not because society tells you so.
