Weddings are a day where fashion is very important.  Everybody has a designated outfit that conveys something to everyone else attending the event.  In the West brides wear white, and have a dress more ornate than the bridesmaids.  Grooms wear black, and aren't that distinguishable from the groomsmen.

The bride is supposed to be the focal point of the entire event.  The color white serves several purposes - the eye focues on white before black or darker colors, symbolically white stands for innocense and purity. 

While in Cali my GF thought it would be a great idea to drive over to Vegas and elope.  I countered that it would be a great idea if we could have a "fetish" wedding and find a white latex wedding gown for her to wear. 

Yeah - that didn't happen - logistically I don't think I would have been down for the drive even if she had agreed.  Regardless, how do you feel about incorporating fetish elements into a wedding?  I think that I am going to have to find a white pvc garter or latex leg garter as a small symbol of our unique relationship :)
