The Bride
June Is here and June is the
month for brides and for wed
dings. If you plan to attend
a wedding this month you might
like to know how some of our
wedding customs and traditions
came from.
They come straight from
folk lore and are as old as
time. The old rhyme that
"something old. something new.
something borrowed and some
thing blue" is to be worn by
the wide is usually observed
faithfully and has been a folk
habit for many many years both
at home and abroad. The "som
ething old" is often a piece of
heirloom jewelry or veil, the
"something new is usually ar
ticles of clothing. Something
borrowed can be hoisery, a
handkerchief or any sort of
trivia, and "something blue"
is often a blue garter, which
the bride sometimes tosses in
addition to her bouquet. To
the above rhyme many add "and
a shiny drive (or sixpence) in
the brides shoe". This rhyme
is a very popular tradition and
its a well known belief that
the "Shiney drive" worn in her
shoe brings the bride wealth
as well as love.
Other customs and tra
ditions abound in folk lore be
ginning with courting traditions.
Star sapphires are used as
love cnarms. Many cbarms
have to do with the hair of a
loved one to tftract him (or
her) to the lover. Formerly
there was much trade in love
powders in North Carolina.
There are hundreds of ways to
find out whom you will marry,
name the posts of a new bed
with vour choice of lovers and
the first one you look at in
the morning will carry die name
of your future husband, or out
a pulley-bone over the door and
the first boy who walks under it
is your true love?who hasn't
done this?
Never wear an opal engage
ment right. & brings bad luck.
Sleep with a piece of wedding
cake under you pillow and you
will dream of the person you will
marry. And thats why a tiny
piece of cake is given in a dainty
little box at the receotlon.
When should the bride
marry? The old traditions says
"On Monday tor health.
On Tuesday for wealth;
Wednesday's the best day of
all.
On Thursday for lasses.
On Friday for Crosses,
Saturday is no day at all".
Another old, ola swing is
"Happy is the bride mat the
sun shines on"?and we do ac
tually hear this each beautiful
wedding day. That the person
who catches the brides bouquet
will be the next to marry is the
reason for the bride tossing her
bouquet.
Old shoes and rice bring
good luck. No one knows Just
why, but we all give the bride
a shower of rice and tie old
shoes to the car?and it works!
A newly married couple
should not enter their new home
until a Bible and a broom are
placed inside to bring happi
ness in their home life.
Did you know that if either
husband or wife have the toe
next to the big toe that is the
longest, that person will be the
boss in the new family?
In some places In North
Carolina it is a folk belief
that if a hsuband or a wife
should stray from home the ot
her should brun seven persim
mon sprouts in the fire and
the mfatthful one will have
seven pains and return home.
Orange blossoms are the
traditional scent for die bride.
The old custom of baching the
bride in holy water and sprink
ling perfume on her is for die
purpose of attracting the spir
its of good will to die couple.
The wedding band is worn an
the left hand third finger be
cause the old belief was that
the vein of love, runs from
that finger directly to the heart
and in 1879 Edward VI ordained
the use of the left hand third
finger for this reason. The
ring, itself m unbroken circle,
is the symbol of the eternity
of the love of die couple.
The bride and groom cut
the first slice of weeding cake
together share it, or drink
custom of hiring a larides
chalice" to be tuoded down In
families for the brides tosharc
the bridal pat Ion with the bride
groomes. devotes the sane ac
knowledgment of the sharing of
all they will have hi the fvture.
Tin cans tied to a car are
to frighten die evil spirits a
way.
Our parents?or perhaps
grandparents *id great-grand
parents had si "mfair'rglven
them on the night they entered
their new home to live. All
the neighbors and friends came
to their home, ringing bells,
beating tin pans and blowing
horns till they were invited in
and served with cake and punch
or an "InfaLr dinner". This,
of course was expected and
prepared for in advance, and
after being served everyone
had a fine time for a while be
fore going home. Gifts were
often brought s this time.
In France this was called
a charivaris, and our fore
runners simplified the word and
called it a "shivaree"
All of these traditions and
many more, are a part of our
heritage brought to America
from the many lands our fore
bears came from and are a
priceless tie with the past which
we S>precl*e and which June
brides should observe in part.
