If the woman follows the traditions, she\u2019s most common to wear in her wedding day a white <strong>bridal veil<\/strong>, which symbolized in the old times virginity. Nowadays, let\u2019s leave the hypocrisy behind and admit that most of the women who get married aren\u2019t virgins.<\/p>\n<p>We can\u2019t relate to the <strong>bridal veil<\/strong> as being entirely a religious item, due to the fact that the Western side of the globe doesn\u2019t believe in religion at all, but it\u2019s long used in history, before being adapted by the West side as well.<\/p>\n<p>Firstly, the Roman brides were those who wore such accessories on their faces and it wasn\u2019t white at all, it was really red and called \u201cflammeum\u201d \u2013 being designed especially for getting rid of evil spirits in the big day. From the early times, this accessory jumped to only being used in the 19<sup>th<\/sup> century for suggesting the woman\u2019s modesty.<\/p>\n<p>You know pretty well the custom of lifting the wedding veil and kissing the bride, this seems to be the first gesture that the groom does in order to emphasize his possession of the wife.<\/p>\n<p>Nowadays, some of these rituals are still kept: like the one in which the groom lifts the veil and kisses the bride, but we\u2019re sure that most of the men aren\u2019t aware of the fact that this means that they \u201cpossess\u201d their wives.<\/p>\n<p>In these modern times, as we emphasized previously, you\u2019re not going to see brides choosing the wedding veil for the sake of innocence, but due to the fact that it goes greatly with the <strong>wedding dress<\/strong> that they\u2019ve chosen.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The wedding veil is one of the most common used accessories by brides for some time now!
