Did he carry you over the threshold?

Original post by LaurenluvsTJ

I just read something about the 'tradition' of the groom carrying his new bride over the treshold the first time they enter their home as husband and wife. I realized we didn't do that, even though I have heard of it before, it never even ocurred to me. Did any of you do it?

We were both too exhausted and I don't think the thought ever entered our minds!!

Yup. At both the hotel on the night of the wedding and also when we returned home the next night before the honeymoon.



Same for us exactly.

Nope! I'm not a small girl... DH would throw his back out and we'd both come crashing down if he had!!!



Same here!

He tried, but I refused!



Me neither.... but I wouldn't have let him if he wanted to lol

When we walked into our house after the closing, my mother yelled, shouldn't he carry you in?! I looked at her and laughed lol

Yes he did, after we brought all our stuff inside he told me to come out, and I was all pissy.....then he threw me over his shoulder and threw me on our bed!!!!!!!! It was sweet...

Oh yes! The night of the wedding at our hotel, at our honeymoon, when we got back to our condo after the honeymoon, the first step into our new house....I'm coo-coo for the threshold thing.

Nope, and he didn't even take me out of my wedding dress. We had all of our friends back at our room for an after party, and I let my bestfriend, who is gay, undo my dress because he was sad that he'll never have a bride to undress I offered to let him try on my dress so I could undo him, but he didn't fit into it

No, unfortunately I was blessed with my . so I wasn't feeling 'in the mood'.
