Fun wedding facts

I was curious to how the traditions of Honeymoons started so I looked it up. Apparently 'The first weddings comprised of a groom taking his bride by capture. He would take her somewhere hidden away so her relatives and villagers couldn't find them. There they stayed for one moon phase and drank mead, a wine make from honey, to make them more amorous. Thus, the word 'honeymoon' was born. Today, the honeymoon is the time when the couple can get away for awhile.'

This site has other interesting facts, just fun to look at if you need a distraction from planning, but can't get weddings off your mind.(hopefully that's not just me)
