Queen Victoria in her wedding dress by Winterhalter, 1842. The first answer is more or less accurate, but glosses over centuries of white wedding dresses worn before Queen Victoriaâs wedding, and decades of coloured wedding dresses after her wedding, and also doesnât explain why Victoria wore a white wedding dress.
White is the traditional color for a bride's wedding gown in the U.S. and most European cultures. White symbolizes purity and innocence. In Asia, white is the color of death. This arises from the belief that death is seen as a beginning and that white represents the purity that the deceased brings into the next life. Therefore, brides in Japan and China wear red in traditional wedding ceremonies.
