Vintage WeddingVintage Hairstyle for BrideIt is customary, too, in most places now-a-days, for showers of rice to be thrown after the bride and bridegroom as they take their departure from the bride's home, as this is thought to promote their success and happiness in their new life.
A correspondent of "Notes and Queries" tells us that on coming out of a country church on one occasion, after a wedding, he found a sort of barrier erected at the churchyard gate, consisting of a large paving stone placed on its edge, and supported by two smaller stones, and on either side a rustic, who made the happy couple and everyone else jump over it. On inquiry he was informed that it was the "petting stone", over which the bride had to jump, in case she should repent and refuse to follow her husband. More Wedding Ideas: |
