Wedding Dresses

Their wedding day, for most women, is one of the most awaited moments in their lives as well as their families. This is one woman's chance to shine on an occasion where she and her wedding dress design is the centre of everyone's attention.With all the eyes following you from your walk from the aisle to the reception, it is vital that you have the right dress that could show off the right attitude in you especially on this day, your day.
The Wedding Gown
The wedding gown or dress is the outfit the bride wears on her wedding day. Even though there are a great number of styles to choose from for a wedding gown or dress, most brides still follow tradition. This could be because of their culture, religion or perhaps because of a dream they had from childhood!
While at the present, white gowns are still favourable among many brides-to-be, there are many other styles and colours depending on where you are.Brides in China believe it is a sign of good luck to wear gowns in a red colour so this is what they generally wear. In the more modern Chinese weddings the bride would have a white wedding gown. It is just later during their wedding day that they change into a red gown and may also opt for something in a gold colour after.In the northern parts of India, women's dresses are also in red. This, for them symbolizes prosperity. While the colour green is also used in these parts of the country for wedding dresses as a sign of fertility.


In the southern parts of India, instead of gowns, women choose to wear the sari for this occasion, and then change into more traditional Indian clothes afterwards.A wedding is a lovely celebration and I sincerely hope that you find the dress of your dreams and that your wedding day goes smoothly. Far more important than any wedding dress are the vows or promises that you will make to each other and your future happiness together.
