Worldy Wedding Customs
A few months before my wedding I was pondering how other brides feel when they are about to get married. In general do they feel excited? Or is it a mixture of being nervous and excited? Or it is just a laid back attitude? I guess it all depends.
LoversLawn has a list of Wedding Customs From Around the World. I especially like the Sweden customs.
“The mother of the bride presents her with a gold coin and places it in her right shoe while the father places a silver coin in her left shoe, to ensure that their daughter will never be poor. The groom however presents her with three gold rings - the engagement ring, the wedding ring and the motherhood ring”
While the Filipino custom is a little scary…probably because I am accident prone.
“The groom throws a spear onto the front step of his bride’s house to let everyone know about the intended marriage.”
