"It marks the entrance of the person into the Catholic family, like going from a high chair to a seat at the family table." - Comment by Josh Puckett

No, that's baptism. Confirmation is when the church now sees the recipient as a full parishoner and an adult. M173627 (talk) 20:38, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] What?

Where did this bit of information come from...

Special clothing is usually worn. The clothing is often white, to symbolize purity. Girls, especially, wear fancy dresses and often a veil and headdress and white gloves (long or short). The veil symbolizes the tablecloth used at the Last Supper and the dress the robes that Jesus wore.

In reality the idea of both wedding dresses and First Communion clothes is derived from the gowns which were bestowed on the newly baptized. --Sophroniscus 23:41, 10 August 2005 (UTC)
