junipa Why are women still wearing white, none of them seem brides are not virgins anyway. These traditions she mentions are all bases on occult Catholic superstitions. Anyway why don't the men also wear white don't they have to be virgins too?
Kathy Young--Years ago, local newspapers regaled readers on Saturdays with extensive descriptions of bridal parties. Without fail, the bride's and the maids' dresses were exhaustively detailed. At the end of all the dress descriptions was one sentence: The men in the party wore Tony Martin tuxedos.
I have 5 bridesmaids, two are wearing dark wine red, one is wearing dark forest green, one is wearing light sage dusty green, and the last is wearing taupe.
Maybe I'm old fashioned, but i just think it looks better to have all the same dress. More tidier, and you have a color theme going on. Just seems more elegant to be formally uniform.
I know, It's a very american thing. Not so much outside the USA though. I've never seen this in my country. Sometimes they all have the same color but not the same dress, normally each bridesmaid dress the way they want to
I lived in the country side of a Germany but most of the brides only had one bridesmaid (Maid of Honor) usually their family member or really close friend whose basically family
When I got married in 1977 my two girls had identical dresses. Now looking back on it one girl was real tall and she looked beautiful in formal, but the shorter girl looked ridiculous. I should of had the dress shortened for the short girl. Now if I got married they can pick out their own color and style but in modesty and not be formal. Their hair nicely done but I want flowers in the hair and I would pick them out as well as the bouquet. I think that's fair.
This is nothing new. In post WW II America, brides were advised to choose no more than three options for dress styles for her maids. If the ladies couldn't agree on a style, the bride had final say, accordingto etiquette books. She also got to choose the colors (rainbow weddings--where each girl wore the same style dress in a different color--were popular and, where I grew up, the entire community rallied around the bride to be and helped sew--yes, sew--the gowns, with only the bride, the bride's mother and my mother--the local "expert" seamstress--sewing the bridal gown). Diminutive models of the gowns were sewn onto "dress-me" dolls (about 8 - 10 inch plastic "teen" dolls still available in craft stores today) as car ornaments and keepsakes for the girls after the wedding.
momo !! It wasn't a town. It was a rather large farming community, which in the last 60 years, has pretty much been sold off to land developers for housing tracts. It's a way of life since gone.
The tradition of the bridesmaids wearing the same dress should be kept. Dress envy will most probably take over they'll all want to look better than each other. But the bridesmaids shouldn't hog the spotlight it's not even their special day.
I was a flower girl and we we're suppose to wear ugly sleeveless purple dress. I didn't CARE!! the color was ugly and I wore white with puffy sleeves . One of the flower girl ask me why I wore white, I said "NANYA BUSINESS. PURPLE IS UGLY." (Sorry if you love purple . The purple they wore was really dark and has a bad design.)
My wedding dress is going to colored and so will my fiance tuxedo while everybody else wears white. I think it looks better that way and in my culture brides or any body in that matter wearing white to a wedding is bad because you only wear white to funeral but I'm not that traditional so the guest and brides maids and grooms men are going to wear white.
@@mariah8924 Wearing any specific colour, be it black or white, to funerals isn't universal. Black is mostly accepted as a colour of mourning worldwide due to Westernization. That wasn't always the case. White mourning has been the traditional custom in many Asian countries. I think China still does it. I live in Japan, which conformed to the Western black mourning around a century ago, but the deceased is still dressed in white. I think Hungary traditionally wore un-dyed fabric, and some regions like Csököly still wears white mourning. The royal family of the Netherlands also has a tradition for white mourning and members wore it as recently as in 2004. My point is, just because a cultural practice has become pre-dominant worldwide, or that a certain colour means something in one culture, it doesn't make the other cultural practices any less valid.

How many times have you been a bridesmaid?
Never, lol.
Once and we did not wear the same thing🙃
The List Never. I have never even been to a wedding. Hopefully soon though when my sister gets married.

Or you could do what I did and have only one bridesmaid. Problem solved.

Ok, why do all the guys wear identical tuxes?

Kathy Young because it's the only one they have.

Or its just so they bridesmaids dont stand out as much as the bride
True I mean when I have my own wedding I want to be the star of the show and no other girl will take the spot light and if they do they get kickt out
I honestly wouldn't mind if bridesmaids wore different colors as long as they're cohesive
I like bridesmaid wearing the same color dress
I like s a me color but with different patterns (to suit body types).
OK...now that I know the reason...I'm gonna have to have my bridesmaids dress differently.
This is not a thing in many countries you know
Amanda Ibraimovic she said weddings in the west.
Elley Henderson even so. I don't see this often
Amanda Ibraimovic she said it was popular in american weddings multipe times. Im american and its definitely a widely held tradition.

I was a bridesmaid and we all had the same pattern dress but different neckline
I’m a jr bridesmaid and we got to choose our dress but not the color
I was the bridesmaid of honor at my moms wedding to her third husband and still my step dad to this day.
can u give a suggestion what colour of scarf that match with cream dress and tanned skin girls?
I'm a ten year old brides maid with two 24 year old sisters, so... That happened...
Not a flower girl?
I always thought that it was just to look good, and because if the bridesmaids wear different from the bride, to bring more attention to the bride. 👰
What if the groom is left handed ? Weird superstitions
The tradition of the bridesmaids wearing the same dress should be kept. Dress envy will most probably take over they'll all want to look better than each other. But the bridesmaids shouldn't hog the spotlight it's not even their special day.

Now so that the bride only dress differently, it became more easy for evill spirit or kidnapper to trace the bride
