Uganda is a country with a spread of 56 ethnic groups with distinct culture and tradition peculiar to their roots. Wedding as a cultural entity can not be overemphasized in this landlocked country.
Although several brows have raised against the exorbitant cost of preparing a traditional wedding in Uganda, a modest traditional marriage ceremony costing between $2,000 and $50,000, Ugandan weddings are always a big deal of an event to show off newly found wealth or social status. At Ugandan traditional weddings, the bride does change her dress several times to depict her gorgeousness and elegance for the special day.
The traditional attire worn by a Ugandan bride is a gomesi. This is usually brightly colored silky dress with pointed sleeves and tied around the waist by a large belt. It is a floor-length dress with a square neckline and short, puffed sleeves. The dress is tied with a sash placed below the waist over the hips. The gomesi is usually characterized with two buttons on the left side of the neckline. Gomesi are mostly made of silk, cotton, or linen fabric, but the silk is often the expensive.

Often times, a kikooyi or kanga can be tied underneath the gomesi linen to ensure that the fabric does not stick to the body. For designing, a well-made gomesi can require up to six meters of fabric.
Basically, at Ugandan traditional weddings, all women are expected to don themselves in gomesi attire. This clothing has garnered much popularity that American hip-hop star, Alicia Keys rocked in the beautiful dress on her visit to the East African country in 2007.
