The tradition of the colour white being exclusive to wedding dresses, as it symbolises purity, began in 1840 with the marriage of Queen Victoria of the United Kingdom. It quickly became a world rule, which Brazil still adheres to today. This neutral color stands out in the midst of the wedding decoration and in front of the guests dressed in other shades and, even with the possibilities of the protagonist opting for another color, such as nude tones, off white and pearl, which are already more common, white is still considered hers.

On the beach
Ceremonies and parties held during the day at the beach are the most suitable for light clothes. The environment conveys a light and relaxed air. We believe it is the most common kind of bond for men to be seen in white without prejudice. A blue wedding decoration is already natural with the sea and the couple will gain even more prominence if the two are the most neutral color of all.

Smoking summer
For daytime weddings in party houses or halls that ask for a more elegant as the tuxedo, the version summer is perfect, especially to be used in the middle of summer. The garment is composed by: white jacket or off whitewhite shirt, black butterfly tie, black pants and black shoes.
Many who want to choose this type of costume, but are afraid they will not agree (or even be confused with the waiters!), can put a handkerchief in the jacket pocket and vary the color of the tie, like red or pinkor wear a black vest, for example. These accessories and pieces well cut and adjusted to your body make all the difference.
Military uniform
O gala costume of naval officers is white, so many military bride and groom wear the characteristic uniform. It is also very common for military godparents to make a corridor of honor, properly dressed in darker clothes, letting the groom have the highlight of white, in exciting ceremonies.
Although the label indicates that the more the event takes place, the darker the costume should be, there are always ways to make the will of the couple prevail. If the groom feels good about the white and the pair do not object, the taste should be respected. Everything depends on the dialogue of the protagonists to reach a consensus. And the bride and groom at the top of the wedding cake may have the white-inspired look too.
