Ever since Queen Victoria wed in 1840, however, white has remained the
traditional color for wedding gowns and bouquets. A woman then used
her dress for Court Presentation after marriage, usually with a
different bodice. It has been accepted taditional color of the wedding
dress, but wedding gowns were not always white. The marriage of Queen
Victoria to her cousin Albert of Saxe- Coburg in 1840 has had more
influence on weddings than any other. Queen Victoria put the wheels in
motion by marrying in white.
Though brides continued to wed in gowns of different colors, white was
now set as the color of choice for weddings and has continued ever
since. In Godey's Lady's Book, 1849, this statement was printed: "
Custom has decided, from the earliest ages, that white is the most
fitting hue, whatever may be the material. It is an emblem of the
purity and innocence of girlhood, and the unsullied heart she now
yields to the chosen one." There is an old poem about how the color of
your wedding dress will influence your future: "Married in white, you
will have chosen all right. Married in grey , you will go far away.
Married in black, you will wish yourself back. Married in red, you
will wish yourself dead. Married in blue, you will always be true.
Married in pearl, you will live in a whirl. Married in green, ashamed
to be seen, Married in yellow, ashamed of the fellow. Married in
brown, you will live out of town. Married in pink, your spirits will
sink."
White is still the top favorite for wedding gowns an exclusive range
