In Poland we have got a lot of wedding traditions. Poland is Christian country so people ought to have a church wedding.
The ceremony should be in month which has got a letter ?r? in its name, because it protects children from lisping. We also shouldn?t get married on 1st of April cause of Prima Aprils. The bride can?t show wedding dress to her husband-to-be and he can?t help her to choose it, because it for sure summons disagreement in matrimony. On the wedding day the bride can have something white what symbolizes a purity of her feelings, something blue which predicts her husband will be faithful and something loaned what means that family of the groom will like her. When the young couple goes to the church they shouldn?t turn back and stop because it can bring unsuccessful marriage in the future. If they look a pigeon or a magpie it will bring them luck but if they see a crow or a raven it will mean they won?t be happy together. Their smile can predict them very lucky life.
A father must take her daughter to the altar. When a couple links their hands and a hand of bride will be on the top, she will rule in their marriage. If the wedding rings fall down, pick up them can only a priest, a server, a clerk or a witness. A bride shouldn?t even look at them because it can bring bad powers. The wedding ring ought to be take on the third finger causes it on the middle finger expect marital infidelities. But when the ceremony is ending men should give her fresh wife very hot kiss because it is a promise of fidelity. In the end of ceremony the guests should also throw a lot of coins or rise on the honeymooners and who of them collects more this will keep money in their home.
The bride and the groom are welcomed by their parents with bread and salt. The man should carry his wife throw the doorway because if her dress gets caught in something it will bring bad luck. Then they ought to dance at first as only couple on the dance floor. If their foots will tangle, in life it would be similar ? they will make another ways. Next they ought to propose a toast for health and good luck to the couple. After drinking champagne the honeymooners smash their glasses on the floor and if they break that means they will be happy and rich for a long time. During the wedding at the midnight groom ought to throw his tie back and man who catch it will be the next groom. The same situation is with bride but she throws her bouquet or veil. A fresh husband should find his wife by giving a kiss on her chick or by her knee, she looks him by touching his nose or other parts of his body.
There are also a lot of different and more or less interesting traditions, but I think this are the most important and popular. The rest of them know for sure our grandparents, especially if they are from a village because there traditions and superstitions are sometimes really different and use in a completely another ways.
