Why choose to wear traditional wedding dresses?

A bride who chooses to wear traditional clothing as their wedding attire is usually because:

  • Want to tell people where their ancestors came from
  • Want to look different, unique, and more sacred
  • Want to look amazing because usually traditional clothes have lots of accessories and decoration
Besides that, each traditional dress has a meaning of hope for a lasting marriage, a bright life, lively, and a happy life together. 

By the way, let's start looking at traditional wedding dresses one by one.
