If I lost my virginity at a young age, after I confess to my confession father, what will he make me do and will I be able to regain it? If so, will I be able to wear the virginity cloak for my wedding?

You must trust in the power of all the Holy Mysteries. When you are sincere in your repentance and confess your sins with a contrite heart, the absolution that the priest prays for you will delete those sins completely. Thereafter, living a life of repentance with regular confessions and partaking of the Holy Eucharist are all you need to do. From a spiritual perspective, you will regain your virginity and marriage can proceed as if these sins never occurred. As for the physical issue, there is no need to try to conceal the matter with any procedures. The Holy Spirit will guide you through your confession father how to reveal this matter to your future spouse.
