Vintage Wedding
Simple Vintage Wedding DressIt is a common superstition, especially in Ireland, that a marriage lacks validity unless solemnized with a gold ring.
Mr. Wood, in his "Wedding Day in all Ages and Countries", says that at a town in the south-east of Ireland, a person kept a few gold wedding-rings for hire, and when parties who were too poor to purchase a ring of the necessary precious metal were about to be married, they obtained the loan of one, and paid a small fee for the same, the ring being returned to the owner immediately after the ceremony. In some places it is customary for the same ring to be used for many marriages, for which purpose it remains in the custody of the priest.
