Do bridesmaids have to be unmarried?

It is a folk custom for bridesmaids to be unmarried. People think that married people can't marry newlyweds because newlyweds want to be lucky and happy. Generally speaking, bridesmaids and groomsmen should be friends of the bride and groom. This also indicates that bridesmaids and groomsmen will follow in the footsteps of the couple.

In addition, in western weddings, most weddings are held in churches, which are sacred and serious places, so only single unmarried men and women can serve as groomsmen or bridesmaids, while married people are not allowed and divorced people are not allowed.

Dress taboos on bridesmaids' wedding day

1, white

If you attend a western-style wedding, just like the mother-in-law who was ordered to take off her white dress in "The Devil's Daughter-in-law", white is taboo for everyone, so small as white shoes, white scarves and white gloves can't be touched, and it is the exclusive color of the bride. Please remember the original rules of guest dress. Everyone's focus is on the bride and groom, not you!

2. Black dress

Although many celebrities wear black to attend weddings, whether in the west or in China, they should try to avoid wearing black at daytime weddings unless they can wear a classic little black dress at western cocktail parties.

3. Red dress

Unless you are a bridesmaid and a close friend of the bride, red is also taboo, especially the front red. If you are redder than the bride, you will get a dirty look. In addition, too bright colors such as fluorescent colors are also taboo. Of course, you don't have to worry about bumping into the bride's parents or other bride price guests. It is always impossible to coordinate with all the guests in advance.
