Wedding Traditions Stand the Test of Time
The Traditions:
Over time many wedding traditions and customs have evolved and endured.
Everything from the veil, rice, flowers and old shoes to the walk-down-the-isle,
at one time bore a very specific and vitally significant meaning. Today,
as the modern bride and groom prepare for the big day the most enduring
traditions to consider are those that are based in wishing the wedding
couple the blessings of health, happiness and prosperity in their new
life together. As the couple convey their feelings for one another in
the presence of close family and friends, whatever the tradition, all
share the essential symbols of unity and love.
The colors have been chosen, the shoes and gown have been fitted, the
music is ready and the photographer is booked. Is it any wonder that the
bride and groom are longing for the honeymoon when they finally arrive
at the big day. Traditionally, on the day everyone will want to look and
feel their very best. Remember those wonderful wedding photo's are forever.
According to tradition, it is considered bad luck for the bride to be
seen by the groom before the ceremony. In the ancient marriage tradition
the couple rarely saw each other at all. As a matter of fact, the courtship
or engagement period is really a modern day custom.

The Honeymoon:
In ancient times, many of the first marriages were by capture, not be
choice. When early man felt it was time to take a bride, he would often
carry off an unwilling female to a secret place where her relatives wouldn't
find them. While the moon went through all its phases (30 days) they hid
from searchers and drank a brew made from honey. Hence, we get the word,
honeymoon. So whether the honeymoon is in a beautiful exotic beach destination
or a more cosy location close to home, it is the time to enjoy private
time together. The memories from these happy days, when you have each
others complete attention, are not to be underestimated.
