Since marriage is something which is sacred and is supposed to be a once in a lifetime experience, it is always celebrated in a remarkable manner. This is especially true if the families of the bride and groom are exceptionally wealthy. In this kind of setting, there would definitely be a lot of guests and of course a grand party after the wedding. However, you will notice that the focus of the whole wedding ceremony and the party (if the bride does not change to casual clothing) will be the wedding gown which is worn by the bride. This is due to the fact that wedding gowns signify a huge part of marriage itself and has become a wedding symbol throughout the years.

In the Asian countries with Eastern culture such as China and India, the wedding dresses are similar to the Ao dai of Vietnam with regards to the significance of the red color pertaining to good luck. However, women these days from the said countries mostly opt to wear a color other than red for their traditional wedding dress.
