Chinese wedding dresses are red, a color considered lucky since the Ming dynasty. Generally, brides from northern China wore a one-piece dress such as the qi pao; brides from the south wore a two-piece outfit, or hong qua. Both were elaborately adorned with golden phoenixes, the symbol for the bride, along with chrysanthemums and peonies, symbols of wealth and good fortune.
