The colorful history of wed day_ white Must every bride be mar- ried in white'' There are, of course, no steadfast, unyield- ing rules regarding the selec- tion of color for the wedding dress: one of the greatest pleasures the modern bride enjoys is the knowledge that she is absolutely free to plan her wedding as she sees fit, with no "musts" other than the marriage license itself to hinder her creativity! Yet every woman planning to marry might he interested , to know a little more about the tradition of bridal white before she makes a decision on her wedding attire. From ancient times. white has been a symbol of purity and joy to all nations, all cul- tures. The Orientals and the people of India worshipped white animals. and ancient Romans donned white robes for all joyous occasions. This is not to say that white was always the color con- nected with matrimony. The ancient Roman brides were covered from head to toe in orange -colored veils. And for hundreds of years European brides went to altar dressed in red! This was probably a carry-over from the Chinese custom of wear- ing red as a symbol of gaiety. The first white wedding gown (in the Western tradi- tion of wedding attire) was worn by Anne of Brittany when she married Louis XII in 1499. Her gown of pure white set the trend in Europe. which soon became the stan- dard for all bridal drets in Europe and the Aniericas.' �^ If a bride chooses to wear purest white on her wedding day. this information will en- hance the meaning of her color selection. However. it is quite acceptable—even traditional—fcrr irides to choose gowns in shades of ivory. candlelight, blush pink or ice blue. or white gowns .with an accent of color. Every little bit helps when .. Budgeting" for two Every little bit helps when it comes to balancing the budget.

A careful search of newspapers will produce cents -off coupons that can save you even more. Your best buys are the large economy sizes, espe- cially since now that there are two of you, you'll need more of everything.
