The origin of wedding planning and traditions




Wedding  ceremony and the wish of founding a stable couple and protected by sacred  traditions or social laws was born with thousands of years ago among  communities of people. This is how the origin of wedding planning appeared, but still some traditions are kept. Today  wedding traditions differ from one place to another, but all of them are meant to ensure beautiful events and protection of those who just set up a family.




So, I toured around the world and I collected some traditions, strange, unusual, funny, but also very beautiful. Find in the following lines, the origin of wedding planning and some of the most greatest rituals.
-Legacy cup with handles
In  France is practiced a habit that is very romantic : the newlyweds need to  drink from a cup with two handles to demonstrate the union of souls and  understanding in couple. What makes this custom and most beautiful is that the certain cup is one ceremonial, gave generations of generations.

Cretan Tradition
In Cretan wedding traditions is include that of bread. At  their weddings, a bread with totally special sweet taste made form a dough is shared, to which are added in all kinds of spices as well as pistachios,  peanuts and other traditional ingredients. Then  the bread has a special hank, decorated all over with forms made from the same dough, forms like moon, sun as sign of protection, abundance and  fertility. This bread is so tasty because it symbolizes the sweetness of marriage and happiness of the couple.

Gift: Honeymoon
In  Poland there is a beautiful custom wedding, which practically  symbolizes the gift from guests to the newlyweds (of course there are  other gifts). So the “Bridal dance” is “bought” in the sense that the bride is convinced to dance by hanging money in her dress or throwing them on the dance floor as two  grooms then open the dance floor. Money is then collected  by the bridesmaids and groomsmen and are used to honeymoon travel.

A road … sprinkled with flowers
An  old British tradition which is very beautiful is that a young bride’s maid of  honor from the suite, often a funny and cute baby, throw flower petals  before the bride on its way to the altar. Tradition says that this is how will be the  bride’s path through life with her husband, sprinkled with flowers and happiness.

-Dance in the middle heart
A romantic Mexican tradition refers to couple’s dance. They  are called to open the dance floor just by the guests, who sit around them and  form a heart from their bodies, and in the middle, protected and also admired , the newlyweds will dance their first dance as the beginning of marriage.
