what is a white wedding dress mean vs a colored one i think they said if you wear white your a virgin but colored your not?
isnt it a tradition?
Answer
I believe traditionally it represents purity and a virgin bride. Kind of with the idea that you have been with no one else but the one you're marrying.
People generally used to marry in a colored wedding dress when it was not their first marriage. The idea that they were no longer the virgin bride.
Nowadays I don't think it really matters. I've known of several people getting married in a colored dress for their first marriage.

Do you think black wedding dresses are unorthodox?
INVALID
I honestly wanted to at my future wedding, to wear a different colored wedding dress instead of the traditional white wedding dress; the color black came into mind because I am deeply interested in dark, Gothic styles.
I personally think a black wedding dress would be alluring and very beautiful (seeing Vera Wang's designs of black wedding dresses led me to this conviction), but none of my family members agree. They believe that black wedding dresses would lead to misfortune and death and the color black in general should be worn at funerals only. What do you think?
Answer
I think that believing such a thing about wearing a different colored wedding dress is incredibly silly.
The practice of wearing a white wedding dress isn't that old and it wasn't ever written that you had to wear white to a wedding until after Queen Victoria got married and then etiquette books turned it into a tradition that represented purity.
Wedding dresses were most commonly a deep red among the wealthy before then and lower classes often wore neutral colors like black, gray, and brown.
There should be no dark omens or any such thing associated with the color of a wedding dress.
My mother wore a black wedding dress and my parents have been married 22 years now.
