Wedding Dress Symbolism and Superstition

Most brides choose to wear a white wedding dress as a symbol of innocence, purity and traditionally of virginity. But this was not always the case. Before the marriage of Queen Victoria and Prince Albert of Saxe- Coburg in1840, the bride's preference was usually a silver colored dress. Queen Victoria started the new trend of a pure white dress which continues to the present day in many European countries, the USA and many other countries.
It is true however that every culture interprets the wedding dress color with a particular meaning. In Western cultures, it is white which is considered to be the color to symbolize purity, whereas in Islamic countries it is black. In Japan, the predominant color is red.

It is thought to be bad luck if the bride makes her own dress, or if the groom sees her in her wedding dress before arriving at the ceremony. According to superstition it is also a bad omen to wear a used or borrowed dress.
The bride should not wear the fuly-completed dress before the wedding day. Some leave a final adjustment to the dress uncompleted until the last moment to allow for this.

Bridal Veil History and Meaning

The veil symbolizes the virginity, modesty and the innocence of the bride, hence its color, although in some places blue is used as the symbol of the Virgin Mary.

In some Asian and Middle Eastern cultures, the veil was used to completely hide the face of the bride from the groom who had never seen it. Only after the marriage ceremony was the groom allowed to raise the veil to see the face of his new wife for the first time. In Islamic religions the woman must cover her head with a black veil as a sign of respect to the phophet, Muhammad. According to other traditions, for example Roman customs , the veil protected the bride from evil spirits, to whom it was though she was vulnerable.

The white bridal veil became popular in England in the 16th century just after the Mediaeval period of history had ended. It was at this time, during the reign of that Elizabeth I that the veil became associated with modesty and chastity.

Today, many brides still wear a veil, and when the priest says the line about "you can kiss the bride", the groom lifts the brides veil and places is behind the bride's head. In the East today the veil is often still used to cover the face of the bride who the groom has never seen. The veil is removed once the marriage ceremony is complete.

Now every bride can have a fairytale wedding and get married like a princess thanks to a New York fashion house .

Two knockoffs of the wedding gown worn by Kate Middleton have been completed by Faviana and are ready for production, bringing royal fashion to the high street.

Called the Princess Kate, the gown is made of satin with chiffon French lace and available in ivory and satin shades.
