Overview

"Who hasn't heard that a bride should wear ""something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue""? And what about all the single women hoping to catch the bride's bouquet -- or the single men her garter? Unique and unusual customs and traditions have always played a special role in weddings, but did you know: *If the wedding party gets caught in the rain, one of them will marry within a year. *The ribbons that tie the bouquet together should be full of knots, each of which signifies a good wish and joys to come. *Some women save their wedding gown and make a christening robe for their firstborn child out of it. *It's suggested that just before going to bed on the wedding night, the bride and groom should try on each other's pants; whichever pair fits better shows who will wear the pants in the family. This charming gift book is filled with hundreds of wedding beliefs, customs, and traditions practiced around the world."
