white weddings
Bridal gown nuptials
White weddings are traditional Western marriage ceremonies where the bride wears a white dress, symbolizing purity and formality.
The term encompasses the full conventional package—church setting, formal attire, bridesmaids, reception.
They wanted a small ceremony, not a big white wedding.
The phrase sometimes carries slight irony about expensive traditionalism.
