“They dressed her in a wedding-dress made from fine red-striped cloth from Bahrain and then her mother took her to the newly-built house where some women of the Ansar were waiting outside the door. They greeted her with the words “For good and for happiness may all be well!” Then, in the presence of the smiling Prophet, a bowl of milk was brought. The Prophet drank from it himself and offered it to Aishah. She shyly declined it but when he insisted she did so and then offered the bowl to her sister Asma who was sitting beside her. Others also drank of it and that was as much as there was of the simple and solemn occasion of their wedding. There was no wedding feast.”

“Ottoman wedding dresses made of rich fabrics in the fashionable style of the time were in bright colours like red, purple, blue or pink, while red was the traditional colour for the daughters and sisters of the sultans.They were worn with a red bridal veil. From the 1870s onwards, under western influence, wedding dresses of pastel colours became fashionable, but the first white wedding dress was not worn until 1898, when Naime Sultan, the daughter of Sultan Abdülhamid II, married Kemalettin Pasa. This fashion, which began at the palace, gradually spread throughout Turkish society, until eventually it became hard to find any bride not dressed in white.”
"For wedding dress, Ottoman Seraglio has preferred red, the dynastic colour, and the people of Ottoman have preferred firstly red, than purple, blue as colour. Although the colour of the wedding- dress has changed, the veil has always been red until the middle of 19th century. Naime Sultan, II. Abdulhamid’s daughter, born in Dolmabahce Seraglio in 1876, have been the first to disturb the tradition and have worn a white wedding-dress when she married with Mr. Kemalettin, Gazi Osman’s son. "
