do you know why the wedding gowns are all white? I just wondering why we can't choose either pink or red. Any ideas?

Hi careguarden! Well white gown in wedding is a good sign of virginity. And as a traditional way in getting married they use white for cleanliness, happiness and solemn wedding. But what I saw this past wedding some of the bride wears colorful gown and not really pure white. May be because the fashion is getting crazy and all people want to have a very nice gown and unique. Wearing a white gown is old fashion for me. But Ive seen a picture that white gown looks very elegant and not that old style like what Im thinking. Its up to the people on what they really want in their wedding day. Good day! God bless! Happy New Year!!
