Mexico

The guests at a Mexican wedding have a lovely old custom of forming a circle around the couple in the shape of a heart. The newlyweds will then dance their first dance together within this circle of love.

Finland

In Finland, brides once wore crowns of gold. Following the wedding and during the reception, the tradition known as the 'Dance of the Crowns' took place. The bride would be blindfolded, while her unmarried maids would dance around her in a circle. She would remove her crown and place it on a maiden, and whoever she crowned was said to be the next to marry. This custom could be easily be reborn by the bride who wears a wreath rather than a veil, and she too could dance the 'Dance of Crowns'.

Theres more but I don't have the patience to read through it.

very interesting

Long Island

Brides spend many hours a day for many months on something called a 'board' discussing every little detail of their pending weddings. They also ask eachother every question imaginable about everything imaginable.


I know it sounds strange but it must be some type of 'cultural thing'.

LOL!!!! Ha ha--- very cute!
