Albert Cat,
I have etiquette books from the later part of the Victorian period. They
suggest that the bride wear her wearing dress for the first year after the
wedding. She is to wear to special events.
My grandmother married in 1901 and had a nice white wedding dress. She wore
it church frequently. BTW, she was of modest means.
