When it comes to weddings, tradition reigns supreme. From the exchange of rings to the lighting of candles to the walk down the aisle, it’s easy to know “how” to get married. We’ve seen so many others do it that we easily know what to expect, and so do our guests. But what if? What if you have a pressing urge to break free of the old and embrace the new? What if you want your wedding to be so special that people can’t help but talk about it? One perfect solution is a Melting Pot Wedding.
Wedding traditions from around the world offer the opportunity to enrich the wedding in delightful ways. You needn’t be born and raised in foreign lands to experience memorable and unique wedding customs from around the globe.
Need to save a bit of money? French wedding guests bring the flowers and floral decorations with them to the ceremony. Imagine how colorful and creative your day would be. From a single long-stemmed rose to a bouquet of wildflowers to a colorful centerpiece, guests would shower you, and your church and reception, with a living portrait of beauty.
Or how about raising a little fortune? Swiss junior bridesmaids carry colored hankies so that wedding guests may “buy” them. The proceeds contribute to the couple’s newlywed nest egg.
In Venezuela, couples may sing their vows to each other. How lovely would that be? And for those who need a little extra spice in their day, a traditional brandy-soaked fruit wedding cake from Ireland will surely liven up the reception.
There are nearly two hundred countries on our planet, each with wedding traditions worth considering. With a little research your Melting Pot Wedding could be gloriously unique and become the talk of the town – for years to come!
