White Silk
Wearing White On Your Arizona Wedding Day
Should you wear a white wedding dress? It’s a question that a lot of brides and mothers-of-the-brides grapple with, especially when planning your Arizona wedding. Courtship has changed over the years, relationships have changed, and yet so many aspects of a wedding remain strictly traditional. Of course, at least we’re not wearing our mother’s wedding dresses anymore.
So, why do we still wear white on that big day? Throughout history, the wedding dress wasn’t always white. In fact, the rich were able to afford expensive dyes for bold colors on their wedding day. Wearing white was not considered a thing of beauty. Women of history even wore silk and furs if they could afford it. If not, the bride would wear linen or a fine wool.
But the color of the gown was considered a factor of luck throughout the bride and groom’s lives together. Pink was good for a May wedding, so if you were conducting a wedding of history during this hot May month you’d be wearing a pink wedding dress. Blue was the color of purity and eternal love. This was the color that bride’s splashed throughout their ceremony and wedding dresses. There was a time in history when yellow was the trend as well.
White didn’t become a popular color for wedding dresses until the 1800’s when Queen Victoria wore a white silk bridal gown on her wedding day. She set the trend for women to wear white on their wedding day, and since then white has taken on an entirely new meaning for brides.
A white wedding dress symbolizes that you have chosen the right life partner for yourself. It has come to represent purity of the heart and innocence, much as blue represented throughout history. But a white wedding dress is work. There’s making sure no one steps on your train and gets it dirty. There’s making sure that you spill absolutely nothing on your dress. It’s a beautiful curse to wear a white wedding dress.
The important thing to remember about your wedding day is that it’s your wedding day. There are many shades of white to choose from these days. But times have changed, and wedding dresses and tradition can change too. If you want to add some passion and boldness to your wedding, take a risk and go with a different color. It’s your wedding, do what you want.
