To my knowledge there is nothing in scripture indicating that Mary, the mother of Christ came from a wealthy family. All that we know about her is what is in scripture, though additional information from other sources indicate that she was a virtuous woman "Most fair above all other women".

Why does Mary the mother of Jesus wear white?

We don't know what she wore. Given that their family were not especially poor or rich, she would have worn that the average women at the time wore. Mary herself had no delusions of grandeur, nor could she have fully understood what Jesus would mean to the world. She was a mother trying to raise her children in the best way she could.

Was Jesus a rich man?

While Jesus was on earth as a Man He was not rich, in fact He tells us in Matthew 8:20, " Foxes have holes and birds of the air have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay His head." Jesus was born into a poor family (Mary and her husband, Joseph) were just plain folks who worked for a living. Jesus Himself was a carpenter until He began His ministry. But Jesus was rich in heaven before He came to earth and He is rich now while He is back in Heaven, but of coarse His riches are not like earthly riches.
