Line 6:
''In my own way, I lovingly kiss the bride
''With your ring in your hand, your eyes and your mouth open wide
''In my eyes, blood drops look like roses on white lace...''

There's something about seeing a [[Woman in White|Woman In a White]] [[Fairytale Wedding Dress|bridal gown]] which is covered in blood. The juxtaposition of the joyous event the wedding dress is supposed to signify with the brutality or tragedy that the blood indicates makes for a striking image. The fact that the red of the blood stands out well against the white of the dress adds to this.
Line 55 ⟶ 56:

* ''[[It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia]]'' - Mac tries to fake his own death by driving his car into a wall and is badly shaken/concussed by the event. Disappointed that the car doesn't blow up, he takes his friend Charlie to go get something to help things along, he finds a wedding dress in a pawn shop which he is completely enamored with. When he and Charlie return to the car, Mac is wearing the dress and bleeding all over it.

* The season 3 finale of ''[[Dexter]]'' ends with a drop of Dexter's blood from his injured wrist falling onto the back of Rita's wedding dress as they dance at their wedding. Possibly a foreshadowing of how marrying a serial killer is going to {{spoiler|get Rita killed by Trinity at the end of season 4}}.
* ''[[Smallville]]'' - {{spoiler|Chloe Sullivan in season 8, episodes 10 & 11.}}
Line 68 ⟶ 69:
== [[Music]] ==
* Non-wedding-dress example: about half way through [[The Birthday Massacre]]'s song
* [[Alice Cooper]]'s "Roses on White Lace" is a very literal example
* The covers of [[My Chemical Romance]]'s "Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge" and "Life On The Murder Scene" feature a woman in a blood-spattered wedding dress (though it's much easier to tell she's in a wedding dress on the cover of the latter).
