On 10 February 1840 Queen Victoria married her cousin Albert. Victoria chose to wear a white wedding dress. Because the queen wore a white wedding dress it became the fashion for brides to wear white. (In the past white clothes were a status symbol because they were difficult to clean. If you wore white it meant you must have lots of servants to clean them). https://www.mentalfloss.com/article/570824/queen-victoria-popularized-white-wedding-dresses
