CUSTOMS - THE WEDDING DRESS

It is considered unfortunate for the bride to her own wedding dress.

It is also unfortunate for the bridegroom to see the bride in a wedding clothing before it, until they come to the ceremony.

COLOUR of WEDDING DRESS

Most brides today marry in white, which symbolizes maidenhood. This tradition started by rich in the sixteenth century. The tradition was given impetus by Queen Victoria who chose to marry in white instead of silver, which is the traditional color of Royal brides. Before the white dress brides wore their best dress. The colour is a matter of preference. The following is a traditional rhyme to offer advice on dress color:

Married in white, who have chosen law
Married in blue, your love will always be true
Married in Pearl, you will live in a whirl,
Married Brown will live in cities,
Married with red, you'll want your own dead,
Married in yellow, ashamed of your colleagues,
Married in green, ashamed to be seen,
Married in Pink, your spirit will sink,
Married in grey, you will go away,
Married in black, you would want your own back.

A green dress is considered unlucky, if bulkata is Irish. The old expression that a woman is "green dressing-gown" was used to imply promiscuity, green spots, is due to the rolling fields of grass.
