I don't need to put in a message, cause my title says it all.
Actually, Diglet,
The white dress means First Wedding,
it's the Veil that means Virgin. (oh yeah - she had one of those too...)
ooops! my bad...

actually...you're right. She didn't have a veil.my bad...
Although, is it really my fault that I thought she was a virgin? I mean, shouldn't she be saving herself for that special guy?although this website:

A UK government site saysQueen Victoria wore white for her wedding and started the fashion for wearing white, supposedly to symbolise the bride's virginity.
wow, you're right. maybe they actually knew the ritual significance?....
......naaah.
